Read a random definition: Easter sittings

A quick definition of Railway Labor Act:

The Railway Labor Act is a law from 1926 that allows transportation workers to form unions without their bosses getting in the way. It also sets rules for how labor disputes should be resolved in the transportation industry. In 1934, the law was changed to include airlines and create the National Mediation Board.

A more thorough explanation:

The Railway Labor Act is a federal law that was passed in 1926. It gives transportation employees the right to form labor unions without interference from their employers. The law also provides guidelines for resolving labor disputes in the transportation industry.

For example, if a group of railroad workers wanted to form a union to negotiate better wages and working conditions, the Railway Labor Act would protect their right to do so. The law would also provide a process for resolving any disputes that might arise between the workers and their employer.

In 1934, the law was amended to include the airline industry and to establish the National Mediation Board. This board helps to mediate disputes between transportation workers and their employers.

Overall, the Railway Labor Act is an important piece of legislation that helps to protect the rights of transportation workers and ensure that labor disputes are resolved fairly.
