The power of the President to obtain a court injunction to stop a strike for an 80-day "cooling-off" period is granted in the Taft-Hartley Act, which was passed in 1947. The Act amended and added provisions to the National Labor Relations Act (also known as the Wagner Act) and included provisions for handling labor disputes that threatened national safety or health. The Landrum-Griffin Act, passed in 1959, regulates the internal affairs of labor unions and provides protections for union members. The National Industrial Recovery Act, passed in 1933, aimed to promote economic recovery during the Great Depression and was declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court in 1935.
