POW – Right in the Kisser. Businesses watch out for the law

A Pennsylvania-based convenience store chain was hit with a lawsuit by the Biden administration at the same time the president stopped by one of their locations on the campaign trail.

Sheetz is being accused of racial discrimination by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). THE EEOC claims that the company’s hiring practices discriminated against minority applicants.

The lawsuit was filed the same day Biden cheerfully stopped by a Pittsburgh location on Wednesday for food.

Specifically, the EEOC contends that Sheetz’s criminal background checks were discriminatory due to their method of excluding applicants suspected of failing the checks.

The EEOC claims that this disproportionately impacted Native American, Black and multiracial jobseekers.
