Amazon and SpaceX's Legal Battle Against Labor Board Faces Judicial Scrutiny

TL;DR Summary
Amazon and SpaceX argued before the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals that the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is unconstitutional, claiming it violates the separation of powers and Seventh Amendment rights. However, the judges were unconvinced by the companies' appeals, questioning the timing and basis of their filings. The NLRB's representative argued for dismissal, stating the court lacks jurisdiction. Legal experts suggest the constitutionality of the NLRB was settled long ago, making the companies' claims unlikely to succeed.
