The resolution, introduced by a group of representatives, urges the President, United States Congress, and the National Labor Relations Board to implement policies that would prohibit employers from permanently replacing employees who are on strike. It emphasizes the importance of the right to organize and strike as fundamental to labor rights and worker protection in the United States. The resolution highlights that the ability to replace striking workers undermines negotiations and tilts the balance of power in favor of employers, making it difficult for employees to advocate for fair treatment.

The resolution references a 2016 decision by the National Labor Relations Board, which affirmed that while employers can replace striking workers to maintain operations, they cannot do so as a punitive measure. Despite existing legal protections, the resolution points out that striking workers remain at risk of permanent replacement, as illustrated by a recent incident involving the Kellogg Company. The resolution calls for stronger protections to ensure that striking workers are not permanently replaced, thereby facilitating fair negotiations and protecting workers' rights. Copies of the resolution are to be sent to key government officials and bodies to advocate for this policy change.
