The Sherman Antitrust Act primarily targets anti-competitive practices among businesses, but it also applies to labor unions in certain contexts. While unions have the right to organize and negotiate, they can face scrutiny under antitrust laws if their activities significantly restrain trade or commerce. However, the Clayton Antitrust Act of 1914 provides some protections for labor unions, allowing them to engage in collective bargaining without being classified as illegal combinations in restraint of trade. Thus, while the Sherman Act can apply to unions, there are specific provisions that protect their rights.
