Inflatable union rats are a common symbol used during labour disputes in the United States to represent anti-union workers and scabs. During the Trump administration, such rats were threatened by labour lawsuits; the National Labor Relations Board upheld the right to their use as a form of free speech in a 2021 ruling.[1][2]
