Both the Wagner Act and the Taft-Hartley Act have had significant influences on the current status of organized labor in the United States. The Wagner Act, passed in 1935, facilitated the growth of labor unions by granting workers the right to collectively bargain and strike. The Taft-Hartley Act, passed in 1947, introduced restrictions on unions and gave more power to employers, making it more difficult for unions to organize and engage in certain activities. Overall, both acts have shaped the balance of power between labor and management, with the Wagner Act promoting union growth and the Taft-Hartley Act imposing limitations.
