Well, just out of curiosity I looked up something about this. Here's a link to a handbook for employers: http://uscis.gov/graphics/lawsregs/handbook/hand_emp.pdf
>From that: "Employers with 4 or more employees are prohibited from discrimination against any person (other than an unauthorized alien) in hiring, discharging, or recruiting or referring for a fee because of a person's national origin, or in the case of a citizen or protected individual, because of a person's citizenship status." And: "On an individual basis, an employer may legally prefer a United States citizen or national over an equally qualified alien to fill a specific position. However, an employer may not adopt a blanket policy of always preferring a qualified citizen over a qualified alien." Take from that what you will. -Kevin ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Gold Sponsor - CFHosting.net http://www.cfhosting.net Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:139531 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
