Meat Company Requires Workers To Verify U.S. Citizenship, So Obama Goes After Them In THIS Sickening Way According to recent reports, the Obama administration just fined a Nebraska meat company $200,000 for asking their employees to provide their legal status and prove U.S. citizenship. The suit was filed on ground of discrimination. The company, Nebraska Beef Ltd., may now be required to back pay any one that theyve turned down. According to the Department of Justice: The departments investigation found that the company required non-U.S. citizens, but not similarly-situated U.S. citizens, to present specific documentary proof of their immigration status to verify their employment eligibility. The INAs anti-discrimination provision prohibits employers from making documentary demands based on citizenship or national origin when verifying an employees authorization to work. The department is committed to ensuring that individuals who are authorized to work in the United States can support their families and contribute to our countrys economic growth without facing unnecessary and discriminatory barriers to employment. We will vigorously enforce the law to remove such barriers where we find them, and ensure that affected individuals have a means of seeking relief. What do you think? Is it completely absurd to sue a company for doing due diligence to make sure they are not hiring illegal workers?
