Answer:

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.

Punishing someone for an action that did not used to be a crime is an example of
Naddik [55]

The correct option is "an ex-post facto law."

The ex post facto means after the fact or incident. The law punishes someone for an action that does not used to be a crime when the action was performed. For example, you play in front of Congress and next day legislators make a law which criminalizes the same. So next day you will be arrested under the ex post facto law. Under the US constitution this law has been declared unconstitutional as fairness has been the fundamental principal of US constitution and democracy.
