Illinois Labor Disputes Act Amended

Illinois has enacted two amendments to its Labor Disputes Act. The first one, HB 2907, limits the amount of monetary damages an employer can recover stemming from a labor dispute. The second one, HB 3396, makes it a Class A misdemeanor with a minimum fine of $500 for anyone to place an object in the public way with the intention of interfering with, obstructing, or impeding a picket line or other demonstration or protest.
