Striking and Locked Out Workers Healthcare Protection Act

This bill prevents employers from dropping health insurance coverage for workers during strikes or lockouts. It amends the National Labor Relations Act to prohibit employers from terminating group health plan coverage for employees who are either locked out (during bargaining disputes) or participating in a lawful strike. Employers who violate this rule face civil penalties of up to $75,000 per violation for lockout-related actions (doubling to $150,000 for repeat offenses) or $50,000 for strike-related actions (doubling to $100,000 for repeat offenses). The law directly affects workers engaged in strikes or locked out by employers, ensuring their healthcare coverage continues during these labor disputes.
