The National Labor Relations Act of 1935 (Wagner Act) specifically grants nonmanagerial employees of firms engaged in interstate commerce the right to join unions and engage in collective bargaining. The Act also established the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) to oversee union elections and investigate unfair labor practices. The Railway Labor Act applies specifically to the railroad and airline industries. The National Labor Relations Act of 1947 (Taft-Hartley Act) amended the Wagner Act to limit the power of unions and increase the rights of employers. The Labor Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959 (Landrum-Griffin Act) regulates internal union affairs and requires unions to file financial reports with the government.
