Barack Obama and Eric Holder are fighting hard for rights that they believe are important. No, they are not fighting for the right to life. They are also not fighting for religious liberty. Goodness knows they are not fighting for the right to free speech. No, the President of the United States and the Attorney General are fighting tooth and nail for the right for people to not have to speak or even know English in order to work at a company in America.
In fact, not only are Obama and Holder demanding the ‘right for people to not have to be able to communicate in English’ in order to hold a job in America, they are suing an American company for firing a group of Hmong and Hispanic workers because they could not speak English. The company, a Green Bay Wisconsin metal and plastics manufacturer, is being accused of discrimination.
Abusing Using Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Obama regime is claiming that it is not necessary for workers to know English in order to perform their jobs and forcing them to speak English is in violation of the Civil Rights Act.
That’s right. It is not necessary for a worker to be able to communicate with their supervisor. It is not necessary for a worker to understand instructions given to them on the job. Forcing them to learn how to communicate effectively in order to create a productive, efficient, and safe work environment, in this case at a manufacturing plant, is discrimination.
Judicial Watch provides the twisted interpretation of the Civil Rights Act as provided by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC).
…the Civil Rights Act protects employees from discrimination based on national origin, which includes the linguistic characteristics of a national origin group. Therefore, according to this reasoning, foreigners have the right to speak their native language even during work hours at an American company that requires English.
Requirements of English fluency and so-called English only rules are often implemented to make what is really discrimination appear acceptable, says the government attorney handling this case. “But superficial appearances are not fooling anyone,” he assures. “When speaking English fluently is not, in fact, required for the safe and effective performance of a job, nor for the successful operation of the employer’s business, requiring employees to be fluent in English usually constitutes employment discrimination on the basis of national origin — and thus violates federal law.”
Judicial Watch also reveals that the EEOC, under Obama, have taken ‘unprecedented actions’ to protect foreigners, going so far as to give a directive in 2009 that made a “workplace English rule illegal.” Obama has also taken legal action against businesses that conduct criminal background and credit checks accusing them of discrimination against minorities. Company rules regarding the wearing of headgear has gotten companies accused of discrimination against Muslims.
Some might wonder whether Obama is continuing his community agitation organizing to a new level using the power and weapons that he has as president.
