Trader Joeās, SpaceX, and Meta are arguing in lawsuits that government agencies protecting workers and consumersāthe NLRB and FTCāare āunconstitutional.ā
Trader Joeās has become the second company in a month to sue the National Labor Relations Board for being āunconstitutional,ā following the lead of Elon Muskās SpaceX, as both companies face board charges for firing employees. These two major corporations arenāt alone in attempting to protect their interests by undermining public institutions; Meta is also arguing in an ongoing lawsuit that the Federal Trade Commission is unconstitutional.
