General strikes are against federal law, so adding your name may be evidence of a crime
This isn’t really my wheelhouse, but I’m not aware of any laws against wildcat strikesas such. The issue with “illegal” strikes is that the state provides labor no legal protections. But there’s no law that says you must show up for work (yet).
Unauthorized strikes are commonly called “illegal,” even by Wikipedia, but it’s a bit of a misnomer, and conveniently so for those who want to discourage them. They can easily get you fired, though, and even get you put on do-not-hire lists. They’re risky business.
