Justice Department Announces Public Education Campaign Grants to Fight Immigration-related Employment Discrimination

WASHINGTON – The Justice Department today announced that it has awarded $720,321 in grants to 13 organizations throughout the country to conduct public education programs for workers and employers about federal protections against immigration-related job discrimination.

The grants, which range from $43,664 to $88,000, are being awarded by the Office of Special Counsel for Immigration-Related Unfair Employment Practices (OSC) of the department’s Civil Rights Division. Recipients will assist discrimination victims; conduct seminars for workers, employers and immigration service providers; distribute educational materials in various languages; and place advertisements in local communities through both mainstream and ethnic media to educate workers and employers about their rights.

OSC enforces the anti-discrimination provision of the Immigration and Nationality Act, which protects U.S. and authorized immigrant workers against citizenship and national origin discrimination. As part of its mission, OSC also educates workers and their employers about the anti-discrimination provision.

“Awarding grants to professional and community-based organizations better enables us to educate workers and employers about their rights and responsibilities under federal immigration law,â€

When my father's family came from Ireland in 1740, no one was raiding the public treasury to make sure that they made it. Isn't this nice..

WE have no say in this matter, it's Obozo and DC's agenda

Why don''t we just say that white people cannot apply for a job. I live in So Ca and alot of the businesses here have no whites at all on their staff. How can a government tell me what I can and cannot think. These educational services cannot do anything to help that. Just like they had to have sexual harrassment classes to tell you that you can't act natural around people of the opposite sex, unless of course you are gay. I can't stand the thought police. We are deteriorating as a country because of all the pc crap. When is the maddness stop?

Giving more money to La Raza? Lovely

I love how my Governemnt supports a racist/supremist Organization.

OSC enforces the anti-discrimination provision of the Immigration and Nationality Act, which protects U.S. and authorized immigrant workers against citizenship and national origin discrimination. As part of its mission, OSC also educates workers and their employers about the anti-discrimination provision.

Since illegal aliens are not authorized, this would not apply to them. If every employer uses E-Verify and the docs don't match, don't hire the worker and document everything.

How would an illegal alien even begin to use this to their advantage?

Sick and corrupt people are ruining this country.

Racketeering, extortion, Nov. couldn't come near fast enough. If I fall asleep, please slap me!
