Huawei Technologies Co. said the Trump administrationâs decision late last year to label the giant Chinese telecommunications company a national security threat was unconstitutional and harmful to U.S. industry.

Huawei also claims the FCC lacks âsubstantial evidenceâ and failed to give the company a chance to defend itself before the rule was finalized.
