Wait, is the answer really the Clayton Act? I thought that was just about making it illegal to discriminate against workers who participate in unions. Guess I need to brush up on my antitrust law trivia.

The Railway Labor Act? Hmm, I don't think that's the one. That's more about regulating labor relations in the railroad and airline industries, not exempting them from antitrust laws.

The National Industrial Recovery Act? Really? That seems like a bit of a stretch. I'm pretty sure that was all about promoting economic recovery, not exempting anyone from antitrust laws.

Hmm, I think the Clayton Act is the correct answer. It was the first major antitrust law in the United States and exempted labor unions and agricultural organizations from the Sherman Antitrust Act.
