You can't really do anything, unless your husband has a written employment contract (including a union or collective bargaining contract) which is being violated. (If he does, you can enforce the terms of the contract, including in court, via a lawsuit, if necessary.)
Without a contract, all employment is "employment at will." Employment at will has a number of unfortunate ramifications for employees: one of which is that employers may write them up or disclipline them or even terminate them for any reason whatsoever, including wholly unfair or unreasonable or unsupported ones. Employees at will have, quite simply, no real rights at their jobs.
