The Trump administration accused Facebook of reserving over 2,600 high-paying jobs for foreign workers instead of hiring Americans

The lawsuit alleges that Facebook overlooked US workers and failed to adequately advertise over 2,600 positions between 2018 and 2019. As the WSJ notes, companies that sponsor workers for green cards must first show that they were not able to find qualified US workers to fill the job.

"The Department of Justice's lawsuit alleges that Facebook engaged in intentional and widespread violations of the law, by setting aside positions for temporary visa holders instead of considering interested and qualified U.S. workers," Eric S. Dreiband, Assistant Attorney General of the DOJ's Civil Rights Division, said in the press release.

The Trump administration has long said that it will stop the "replacement" of US employees by highly-skilled foreign workers.
