"SpaceX Faces Allegations of Retaliatory Firings Over Criticism of Elon Musk"

SpaceX is facing allegations from the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) for illegally firing eight employees in retaliation for an internal letter that criticized CEO Elon Musk's behavior on social media. The NLRB claims the company engaged in unlawful interrogation, surveillance, and threats against workers who participated in collective action. A trial is set for March 5, and the NLRB has the power to order reinstatement and back pay for the fired workers. This is part of a pattern of accusations against Musk's companies for attempting to silence workers' protected speech.
