Obama's DOJ Fines Denver Sheriff Department For Not Hiring Non-Citizens
Obama's DOJ Fines Denver Sheriff Department For Not Hiring Non-Citizens
quote:
President Obama’s Justice Department is penalizing the Denver Sheriff Department for making U.S. citizenship a requirement for applicants.
The sheriff’s department will now have to pay a $10,000 fine for its hiring practices in 2015 and 2016. Additionally, the DOJ is requiring them to comb through old applications for those who were disqualified for being a non-citizen and consider those people for future positions.
“The Justice Department’s investigation found that from approximately Jan. 1, 2015, until approximately March 23, 2016, 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,” the DOJ wrote in a statement.
“The INA’s anti-discrimination provision prohibits employers from limiting jobs to U.S. citizens except where the employer is required to do so by law, regulation, executive order or government contract. The Denver Sheriff Department was not subject to one of the INA’s exceptions.”
The settlement also requires that the sheriff’s department train its human resources employees on the INA’s anti-discrimination provision and change its policies to comply with those requirements.

I find it odd that a non-citizen could legally carry a firearm in America.

I find it odd non US citizens are enforcing US law and order on US citizens.
I mean this isn't a labor issue, it's policing a population... Giving someone a gun and absolute authority in a given scenario

Trump should make a statement saying he will reimburse them once he takes office

I'd remind them that non-citizens do not have the same rights as citizens. The DOJ can pound sand. Good luck collecting that stupid fine.

The sheriff’s department will pay a $10,000 fine and will have to sort through old applications to identify people who were eliminated from consideration because they were not U.S. citizens, according to a news release from the justice department.
The department must reconsider those applicants for future jobs, the justice department said.
In an emailed statement, sheriff’s spokesman Simon Crittle said, “The Denver Sheriff Department maintains its commitment to treat all people with dignity and respect, and is proud to have one of the most diverse workplaces in Colorado.
“While we didn’t commit this violation intentionally, we accept responsibility and are taking steps to clarify policy and amend language in hiring documents.”
The settlement with the justice department also requires the sheriff’s department to train its human resources staff on anti-discrimination provisions of federal immigration laws and reviews its procedures to make sure they are in line with federal law, the justice department said.

The law states that you can not discriminate in hiring against legal non citizens, who have work permits unless your state has a law against it.
45 states have laws, that do not allow non citizens to work in law enforcement. Of the 5 states that allow it Colorado and Louisiana are two of them.
If you are upset by this don't blame the DOJ(for this action), call your state senator/rep and get Louisiana's law changed.

Isn't if funny that the only fricking laws the DOJ want to enforce are the ones that hurt US citizens.
