Rick Perry is right.
We need to get the Feds out of our lives.

Yeah, now they can show fraudulent driver’s licenses or Social Security cards.

Impeach the corrupt bastards!!

Looks like Obama & Co, intends to ratchet up their tyranny right up to the end. Probably thinks he’ll be able to cancel the coming elections and just take over as dictator.

The department said UCSD Medical Center demanded excessive documentation from non-citizen job applicants and employees to prove they were eligible to work.

In a sane America, this would be part of a promotional commercial FOR the hospital.

Speechless. Ping.

UCSD Medical Center said it made changes after the Justice Department raised concerns in January, and it believes it is now in full compliance with federal regulations. The hospital said it hasn't found anyone who was denied employment based on practices being questioned.

This looks like a pure harassment lawsuit. Maybe some foreigner got asked for a technically superfluous document, and it's nice that Uncle Sam saw fit to simplify the paperwork to make it clearer the hospital won't get into all sorts of dutch for asking for too little, but that didn't end up shutting anybody out. This kind of thing is sought only after the applicant gets and accepts a job offer anyhow.

Please tell me this is satire, I will sleep better tonight if you do.

What did they do? Ask for a BIRTH CERTIFICATE?

Let me get this straight. If you hire illegal immigrants the .gov will raid your place of work and fine you or worse. If you check too closely to make sure you do not get raided with .gov employess with guns you get fined or sued by the same .gov. I have a solution. Everyone quit hiring anyone.

The U.S. Justice Department said Tuesday that it has sued a major San Diego hospital, saying it discriminated against immigrant employees and job applicants.

The department said UCSD Medical Center demanded excessive documentation from non-citizen job applicants and employees to prove they were eligible to work.

   I don't see why unemployed American citizens should not be given those hospital jobs

   Are any San Diego lawyers out there willing to help a group of your local unemployed COUNTER-SUE the U.S. Justice Department for obstructing their right to obtain one of these hospital jobs.

In JugEars and Holder’s DOJ, there is a racist under every hospital bed and behind every IV pole.

Simple Solution::

We are very sorry we angered the Federal Government by asking for Proper Documents to verify the Eligibility for these people to Legally Work in the United States. As of this Morning We are CLOSING OUR DOORS. All Assets are being sold piecemeal to other Health Care institutions as we speak. Don’t worry I am sure the Federal Government will help you in the Future.
