McLean County Judge Rebecca Foley said the Strikebreakers Act does not apply to public universities, noting it was illegal for state employees to strike when the law was enacted. Further, Foley said denying the university the ability to provide clean, hygienic public spaces and dorms would compromise the health and welfare of students and employees.

It doesn't take a lot of imagination, she said, to predict what might happen without janitorial services over the course of a strike.
