A quick definition of Taft–Hartley Act:

The Taft-Hartley Act, also known as the Labor-Management Relations Act, is a law that was passed in 1947 to regulate certain activities of labor unions. It allows lawsuits against unions for certain actions, prohibits certain types of strikes and boycotts, and provides steps for resolving strikes during national emergencies. The act is overseen by the National Labor Relations Board.

A more thorough explanation:

The Taft–Hartley Act, also known as the Labor–Management Relations Act, is a federal law that was passed in 1947. It regulates certain activities of labor unions and provides guidelines for resolving labor disputes.

Under the Taft-Hartley Act, unions are prohibited from engaging in certain strikes and boycotts. For example, wildcat strikes, which are unauthorized strikes by union members, are illegal under the law. The act also allows individuals to sue unions for certain prohibited activities, such as secondary boycotts.

The Taft-Hartley Act also provides steps for resolving labor disputes that involve national emergencies. For example, if a strike threatens national security or public health and safety, the President can intervene and order the workers back to work for a specified period of time.

Overall, the Taft-Hartley Act is designed to balance the power between labor unions and employers, and to ensure that labor disputes are resolved in a fair and orderly manner.

Hi everyone, has anyone experienced a lower LSAC GPA than their college GPA? I was dealing with mental health problems that caused me to withdrawal classes which is what will hurt my GPA, and it is discouraging me.
Did anyone else who visited UVA notice that their admissions staff smelled like stank fish ?

@StarCleoBug: Yes, my cumulative GPA by LSAC was 3.98 but the GPA they gave was 3.97. I guess it got weighted. I recommend a GPA addendum for your application. They usually give a preset bump if your addendum is found to be sufficient
