In Lyng v. International Union, United Automobile Workers, the Supreme Court upheld provisions contained in the federal Food Stamp Act that bar strikers and their families from participating in the food stamp program. It found this provision permissible for all of the following reasons except:
a.It contains an exception for strikes caused by the failure or refusal of an employer to conform to the provisions of an agreement or contract between employer and employee, or a law pertaining to hours, wages or other conditions of work.
b.It cuts federal expenditures.
c.It limits the use of limited food-stamp funds for those most in need.
d.It avoids providing "one-sided support" in labor strikes.
