A law passed by a countries or States legislature.
"No strike" laws usually only apply to essential workers, like cops, firefighters, etc.
The best known example, of course, was the Federal Air Traffic Controllers that struck in violation of the law (and their signed contracts) and were fired en masse by Ronald Reagan.

I don't think it's ILLEGAL in any state for workers to strike, but in some states, you can't run a "closed shop," that is, require that the worker join a union, so the unions aren't as powerful in some places.

In New York State there is the Taylor law that says that public employees can't strike.
