Last I checked, conducting organizing activities was something you cannot be fired for under employment law. What am I missing here?

To borrow a quote from the motorcycle community:

We’re not firing you for that you’re being fired for one of the literally hundred thousands of reasons we can fire you for. Side note, It’s really disappointing that even after all the memos, you weren’t putting cover letters on your TPS reports.

(in this case the claimed reason is firing for deleting things from work devices while under investigation)

At will employment was brought in to make sure organizers can be fired for organizing
