Answer to Question 1

The provisions of the LMRDA and the Taft-Hartley amendments to the NLRA imposed a number of duties on union officers to eliminate financial corruption and racketeering and to safeguard union funds. All officials handling union money must be bonded, and persons convicted of certain criminal offenses are barred from holding union office for five years. Unions are also subjected to annual reporting requirements by the LMRDA. The union reports, filed with the Secretary of Labor, must contain the following information:
the name and the title of each officer;
the fees and dues required of members;
provisions for membership qualification and issuing work permits;
the process for electing and removing officers;
disciplinary standards for members;
details of any union benefit plans; and
authorization rules for bargaining demands, strikes, and contract ratification.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
