"Amazon Joins SpaceX and Trader Joe's in Challenging US Labor Board's Constitutionality"

Amazon has filed a legal document arguing that the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) is unconstitutional, following similar claims made by SpaceX and Trader Joe’s. The filing is in response to a case involving alleged retaliation against workers who voted to unionize at a New York City warehouse. Amazon's attorneys argue that the NLRB's structure violates the separation of powers and infringes on executive powers stipulated in the Constitution, and that NLRB proceedings deny the company a trial by jury and violate its due-process rights. This legal trend is seen as concerning by labor representatives, as it follows similar claims made by other companies resisting union organizing efforts.
