The meeting in Apalachin drew the attention of local law enforcement and generated news headlines around the country.
The Senate responded by establishing the Select Committee on Improper Activities in the Labor or Management Field, chaired by Senator John McClellan of Arkansas. Committee hearings led to the passage of the Landrum-Griffin Act in 1959.
