In re Debs is a landmark U.S. Supreme Court case from 1895 that addressed the legality of labor strikes and the use of injunctions against them. The case arose from the Pullman Strike, where striking workers, led by labor leader Eugene V. Debs, disrupted railroad traffic. The Court upheld the government's use of federal injunctions to break the strike, emphasizing the importance of maintaining mail delivery and interstate commerce. This decision reinforced the federal government's authority to intervene in labor disputes, setting a precedent for future labor relations.
