Union "corporate campaigns" as blackmail: the RICO battle at Bayou Steel
Article Abstract:
Bayou Steel Corp's lawsuit against the United Steelworkers of America, though settled before merits of the dispute could be resolved, reinforced the conclusion that union corporate campaigns can amount to blackmail and racketeering. Bayou sued under RICO, which prohibits patterns of racketeering activity. The union's organizing efforts at Bayou's mini-mill in Louisiana constituted blackmail illegal under RICO.
