Which one of the following is the concern of the Hatch Act 1919 ?
Answer: A
The Hatch Act concerns the political activities of civil servants, so the answer is A.
The Hatch Act of the United States limits the participation of federal employees in partisan politics: they may vote and hold opinions, but they may not take an active part in party campaigns or use their official position to influence elections. (The statute is usually dated 1939, with amendments in 1940, and the year 1919 printed in the question is a slip, though the subject is clear.)
The right to strike (B), the right to form associations (C) and the machinery for negotiation (D) are the subjects of other laws, such as the Taft-Hartley Act and executive orders on federal labour relations.
