Amazon has filed a legal document claiming the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is "unconstitutional" in connection with a 2023 case accusing the company of breaking labor rules.

Both companies are challenging the NLRB's authority, despite the common use of administrative law by various federal agencies.
