José Martinez applies for a job with American Heartland Corporation. Sparky Foster, personnel director, asks Martinez if he is a U.S. citizen. Martinez replies in the negative but then produces a green card signifying his status as a resident alien with working privileges. Foster silences Martinez and then tells him, "At American Heartland, we hire only U.S. citizens." Martinez is considering suing under Title VII.
