Why is a police oversight board unconstitutional? Do they have too much authority or the POG contract so strong it’s constitutionaly protected?

I wish I understood all the legal ins and outs of the the bill. There are so many claims and counterclaims about how the whole thing will turn out legally that all I know is semi reliable sources say it's not going to make it past the courts and that there are several ways the union might be able to tank it.
