C. Strikes, peaceful picketing, and boycotts became legal.

The Clayton Antitrust Act of 1914 aimed to strengthen antitrust laws and addressed issues that were not adequately covered by previous legislation, particularly the Sherman Antitrust Act. One important outcome of the Clayton Act was the legalization of certain forms of collective labor activities, including strikes and peaceful picketing, which had previously been subject to legal challenges under antitrust laws.
