42. Do you know when and why the Taylor was written and passed?

Edited on Tue Dec-20-05 07:47 PM by BrklynLiberal

Several unions have defied the Taylor Law and won. NYC sanitation workers struck in the late seventies and demanded and got amnesty (from an emergency session of the state legislature). The Yonkers UFT (Teachers) has struck against the Taylor Law five times, and taken some fines while winning some victories. In recent years NYCT workers have pulled slowdowns and won, as in the RTO rule-book action against Pick take-backs. Management didn’t even try to use the Taylor Law in that case.
