Quintero was fired from both jobs earlier this year as part of a widespread purge of undocumented workers who had been employed at the Trump Organization, the Post reported. He is the second undocumented employee to state he worked directly with Eric Trump.

Eric Trump declined to comment to the Post, and Donald Trump Jr. did not respond to requests for comment from the news outlet. The Post reported it is unclear whether the brothers were aware of Quintero's immigration status.

The Trump Organization did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The company announced in January plans to implement the use of the federal E-Verify program to check prospective hires' employment eligibility following multiple reports that Trump golf clubs employed immigrants not legally allowed to work in the U.S.

The Post reported earlier this year that about a dozen employees were abruptly fired from Trump National Golf Club in Westchester County, New York, because they were found to be in the country illegally.

The firings came weeks after former employees at the Trump Bedminster property in New Jersey went public with allegations that the Trump Organization helped them and other immigrants in the country illegally obtain and keep employment.
