The NLRB general counsel has accused US’s largest corporations of creating distractions to cover their law-breaking

The US’s top labor lawyer has said her agency will not “succumb” to Amazon, Starbucks and SpaceX’s attempts to legally challenge the National Labor Relations Board and its ability to enforce federal labor law.

Jennifer Abruzzo, the NLRB general counsel, accused some of the US’s largest corporations of “jumping on the bandwagon” in mounting legal challenges to the labor watchdog, which has found itself at the center of the ongoing battle between the companies and a wave of unionizing efforts by workers.

Attorneys representing Elon Musk’s SpaceX, Amazon, Trader Joe’s and Starbucks have all argued in recent months that the NLRB is “unconstitutional” and has overstepped its authority.

    I like to give them the information that was quickly found online, after sifting through multiple sources to make sure I’m not the stupid one, provide those sources, and then to tell them how fucking stupid they are because I have no patience for bullshit.

    Works for me at least.
