UAW files charges against Trump, Musk for trying to intimidate workers

The United Auto Workers Union said it has filed charges with the NLRB against Donald Trump and Tesla CEO Elon Musk over attempts to threaten and intimidate workers. The action came after Musk and Trump held a two-hour conversation on Musk’s social media platform X on Monday night, during which Trump complimented Musk’s ability to cut costs by saying he would not tolerate workers going on strike. The UAW endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris at the end of July. Read more about the UAW charges.

Lawyers at the labor board will investigate the union’s claims and decide whether to issue formal complaints against Tesla and the Trump campaign. Those cases would be heard by administrative judges whose decisions can be reviewed by the five-member labor board and then federal appeals courts. The process often takes years.

Comcast sues U.S. Labor Department to shut down whistleblower case, citing US Supreme Court

If there was any doubt about the potential breadth of the U.S. Supreme Court’s latest decision curtailing proceedings before administrative law judges, it was resolved on Friday by Comcast: The communications behemoth sued the U.S. Department of Labor, seeking an injunction to shut down an administrative proceeding launched by two former Comcast executives who claim they were effectively fired after blowing the whistle on alleged deficiencies in the company’s securities filings. Comcast contends in the new lawsuit that the Labor Department proceeding is a violation of its Seventh Amendment right under 2024’s SEC v. Jarkesy to a jury trial. The new suit, writes Alison Frankel, appears to be the first example of an agency target using Jarkesy to go on offense.
