This has caused emotional trauma for my family. he was fired wrongly cause it wasnt his girlfriend but another guys girlfriend that works there. Is there anything we can do? I am going there monday to talk to them myself.

Sorry--I had to laugh when I read this--NOT because of the firing ( obviously a difficult and trying event ) but because of YOUR presumption that your marching down there like your husbands MOMMY is going to do anything more than humiliate him in front of his employer and coworkers.
If people who are with your husband while you are not say there is a woman who comes to work and harasses, disrupts the work place, etc--and your husband denies it---obviously, someone is straying from the truth. I don't think the *** of the person doing the "bothering" is particularly relevant. Is it your position that this is a case of mistaken identity? If so, have your HUSBAND address it to the proper person--and stay OUT of it. Nothing undermines a man ( or woman, for that matter ) than a spouse barging in on something they should, as an adult, be able to handle on their own. It reflects badly on your husband at a time when he needs, more than ever, to represent himself well.
Most states are not right to work states. This means the employer doesn't have to give ANY reason for firing an employee. If your state is one of those states, the reason he was fired if, unfortunately, irrelevant.
If your husband wants his job back, the best thing he can do is approach his employer with the right attitude---without you there--- a wife barging in demanding yada yada is the death knell. Stay away, let him handle it--oh, and check into the "girlfriend" angle.
