in 1914, the clayton anti trust act was eventually passed by the congress in the wake of the Sherman anbti trust act, which didn't entirely encompass the workers needs. the clayton anti trust act was different because it stopped companies from making exclusive contracts, rebates, inter corporate stock holdings, and price cuts. This is very similar to the Sherman anti trust act, but it was better enforced, in addition it allowed unions more freedom. this act was huge in American society because it didn't stop unions from limiting industrys' abuse of workers
