Landrum-Griffin Act (1959) known as the Labor Management reporting and Disclosure Act, which aimed at protecting union members from possible wrongdoing on the part of their unions. Like Taft-Hartley, it also amended the National Labor Relations (Wagner) Act.
The law contains a bill of rights for union members. It provides for certain rights in the nomination of candidates for union office. It also affirms a member’s right to sue his or her union and ensures that the union cannot fine or suspend a member without due process.
