A recent labor dispute has escalated into a constitutional challenge, as the pharmacy division of Jewel-Osco argues that the National Labor Relations Act and the NLRB’s structure are unconstitutional. The case arose after federal officials accused the company of failing to bargain in good faith with Teamsters Local 727. Union leaders called the claims meritless and a tactic to avoid accountability to workers. A hearing is scheduled for September.
