Eric Holder Suing Businesses For Refusing To Hire Illegal Immigrants Attorney General Eric Holder has not been known to be impartial when it comes to the issue of race. Holder recently visited Ferguson, Missouri to talk through federal investigations that will determine whether the federal agency needs to be a part of the investigation of the officer who shot Mike Brown. Now, it appears that Holder is deciding to target businesses for what he is deeming citizenship-discrimination. According to WZ, Holder recently sued a Texas catering business for citizenshin-discrimination, resulting in the company being forced to pay $26,400. According to the Department of Justice, the business simply required non-citizen employees to provide additional proof of their right to work in the United States. Sounds like a pretty steep crime, doesnt it? The company will also be forced to create a $40,000 back pay fund for potential economic victims, and will need to revise their work eligibility process. They are also being forced to undergo training on the rules of Immigration and Nationality. Is it just us, or does it seem wrong to punish a company for attempting to cut down on hiring illegal workers? Is there anything wrong about obeying the law and asking future employees to provide proof of their eligibility to work in the United States?
