Summary
The Tax Cut for Striking Workers Act would amend the Internal Revenue Code so that qualified strike benefits are excluded from a worker's gross income. It applies to compensation paid by tax‑exempt labor organizations to members who miss wages because of a strike, lockout, or work stoppage. By removing the tax, the measure aims to lessen the financial burden on workers during labor disputes.
