How did the federal government response to union-led strikes in the late 1800s?

The correct answer is: The federal government sent the troops to restore peace and to break the impasses.

Explanation:

The Labor movement in the U.S. was founded to protect the interests and rights of workers. Its main goal was to prevent child labor, provide health benefits, and help to injured or retired workers. During these strikes, the federal government sided with businessmen and factory owners instead of supporting unions and strikers.  The strikes took place at West Virginia.

When the strikes began, the government sent militias and federal troops to put down the strikes, so the union collapsed after two months.
