    The correct answer is C. President Truman sought to support the power of unionized labor when he vetoed the Taft-Hartley Act.

    Explanation:

    This law imposed restrictions on the union shops, which obliged non-union workers to join the union within a certain period of time, or lose their jobs. Restrictions were also provided for the closed shops, work contracts that obliged them to be part of the union to be hired. The faculty was introduced for the president to request a federal injunction to impose a reflection period of eighty days if a strike was deemed to threaten national interests. The obligation for union leaders to take the oath of extraneousness to communist doctrines was also introduced. This requirement were considered unconstitutional in 1965. All public employees were denied the right to strike.

    Senator Robert Taft succeeded in getting the law approved despite the veto of President Harry Truman on June 23, 1947. Laborists called it the "slave-labor bill" while according to President Truman it was of a "dangerous intrusion on freedom of speech" and of a "conflict with important principles of our democratic society".
