The National Industrial Recovery Act (NIRA) of 1933 established the National Recovery Administration (NRA), which aimed to stimulate industrial growth and improve labor conditions during the Great Depression. One significant aspect of the NRA was its endorsement of labor unions; it recognized workers' rights to organize and engage in collective bargaining. The NRA encouraged fair labor practices by promoting the formation of unions, ensuring that workers could negotiate for better wages and working conditions. However, the NRA's provisions were eventually deemed unconstitutional in 1935, leading to a decline in its immediate impact on labor rights.
