The Taft-Hartley Act, enacted in 1947, aimed to balance the power between labor unions and employers by imposing restrictions on union activities. It prohibited secondary boycotts, jurisdictional strikes, and closed shops while allowing states to pass right-to-work laws, which prevent mandatory union membership. The act also required union leaders to sign affidavits affirming they were not members of the Communist Party. Overall, it sought to limit the influence of labor unions in the workplace and promote a more favorable environment for business.
