nov 22 2016 The Justice Department reached a settlement this week with the Denver Sheriff Department, after they allegedly discriminated against work-authorized immigrants by only considering the applications of U.S. citizens.

“The Denver Sheriff Department discriminated based on citizenship status by requiring applicants for deputy sheriff positions to be U.S. citizens and publishing job postings with U.S. citizenship requirements, in violation of the INA (Immigration and Nationality Act),” a statement from the DOJ reads. INA prohibits employers from limiting jobs to U.S. citizens (except where they are required to do so by law).

The Sheriff Department will pay $10,000 in civil penalties. They will also have to go through their old applications and identify those who may have been disqualified due to the citizenship requirement. In addition, they are required to train human resources on the anti-discrimination provision of the INA.

The DOJ is obviously overstepping its authority.....they have no right to set the states requirements of any state job.....

Fuck Loretta Lynch. I can't wait for that fucking bitch to leave office, so that a competent AG can clean-up house and reverse all of her stupidity.

huh. You can hire non-us citizens to be police. I dunno why but I always assumed they had to be citizens.

That's because you've retained some semblance of sanity.

I am puzzled about this thread.......I have been told by several liberals on this board that the federal government can't make cities to anything.....
