- Description:
- The Associated General Contractors of America is advocating for legislation to make organized jobsite violence during a labor dispute a federal offense, following the 1973 Emmons decision that exempted such acts from federal prosecution. They argue that violence should not be condoned, even in pursuit of legitimate collective bargaining goals, and support efforts to overturn the Emmons decision. The document provides background information on the issue, legislative history, arguments for and against federal intervention, and the AGC's position in support of including a strong extortion provision in the federal criminal code.
