Mariana Barillas dug this up at The Washington Examiner. Apparently, it’s discriminatory to fire migrant workers with expired papers. Moreover, Barillas added that the Department of Justice feels that to ask migrant workers for more work authorization forms could constitute a violation of a provision within the Immigration and Nationality Act that says employers cannot give excessive demands:
The Justice Department released a video this week encouraging companies not to terminate immigrants after their employment authorization expires, and indicated that doing so is a form of discrimination.
[…]
The video then tells viewers that the federal government has extended employment authorization by six months for people from El Salvador with Temporary Protected Status, a benefit designed to help foreign nationals who are considered unable to safely return to their home.
The Justice Department claims requesting additional work-authorization documents from these workers may violate a provision in the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) designed to protect individuals from excessive employer demands based on their nationality.
That’s fine for El Salvador, but in general, it’s discrimination to terminate someone whose work papers have expired? The DOJ seems to be getting really creative regarding expanding what is discrimination in order to prevent companies from sending migrant workers home. Moreover, how is asking for more authorization forms for better verification an excessive burden? Shocking? Not really given what this presidency has done with immigration through executive orders, which are in legal limbo right now.
Technically yes, but the law as applied under the Kenyanesian Usurper has been turned on its head, it is now discriminatory to not employ them.
If expiration dates are no longer valid then why do we still have to renew our license and plates? I smell a Supreme Court case coming . . .
When applying for the last job I ever held (the one from which I retired) I was required to show proof of citizenship/right to work.I showed HR my US passport.
They required us to fill out new I-9 forms a few years ago, even though I had been with the company since 1985.
Dear Injustice Department. Pound Sand!
Those are NOT LUNATICS. Serious Marxists at work destroying America as they have been planning for many decades.
Enforcing US law would have prevented this massacre.
This is Real right?? Not from the Onion, then cut and pasted??

God Help Us
So let me get this straight. In order to not be prosecuted for a civil rights violation you must break the law....
If one is using the word in the traditional sense, without the adjaectives “unjust” or “illegal” implied, I’d agree 100%. Of course, it takes discriminating taste to see the different nuances that the word might have.
Just a little editing on your excellent response.
More specifically, regarding the misguided DOJ’s warning against discrimination, patriots are reminded that the only discrimination that the states have amended the Constitution to expressly prohibit for both federal and state governments deal with voting rights as evidenced by the 15th, 19th, and 26th Amendments.
Patriots are also reminded that even if the states had constitutionally prohibited the feds and themselves from practicing whatever kind of discrimanation that the DOJ is talking about that the Supreme Court had clarified in United States v. Cruikshank that the states required only themselves and the feds, not individual citizens, to respect constitutionally enumerated rights.
Also note that a previous generation of state sovereignty-respecting justices had clarified that, regardless what FDR’s state sovereignty-ignoring activist justices wanted everybody to think about the scope of Congress’s Commerce Clause powers (1.8.3), that the states have never expressly constitutionally delegated to the feds the specific power to regulate INTRAstate commerce, the DOJ now illegally interfering with employment issues.
”State inspection laws, health laws, and laws for regulating the internal commerce of a State, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c. are not within the power granted to Congress [emphases added].” —Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.
Remember in November !
Patriots need to support Trump / Pence by also electing a new, state sovereignty-respecting Congress that will not only work within its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers to support Trump’s vision for making America great again for everybody, but will put a stop to unconstitutonal federal government inteference in state affairs.
Note that such a Congress will also probably be willing to fire state sovereignty-ignoring activist justices.
BTTT
Only if you don't renew it.
Or an expired insurance certificate?
Don't you mean insurance policy?
Yes it is and that is why employers who do should be punished and not just the illegals,
I remember a John Travolta movie line. He was in Face Off. Nic Cage switched places. John was the bad guy but had the face of the head of the FBI or some big wig in gov.
In that movie he said to his pal on the phone.....’just think we will have full control of the fed gov.’ That is what is going on right now. Never forgot that line.
These DOJ people belong in jail.
They sure do.
This administration is truly insane.
Not just insane, also evil
