DENVER � The federal Department of Justice on Thursday announced it has filed its first lawsuit as part of President Donald Trump�s Buy American and Hire American push � and a Colorado company is the target.

The complaint alleges Loveland-based Crop Production violated H2-B visa rules and discriminated against at least three U.S. citizens by opting to employ temporary foreign seasonal workers at a job site in El Campo, Texas, Fox News reported.

�The Department of Justice will not tolerate employers who discriminate against U.S. workers because of a desire to hire temporary foreign visa holders,� Attorney General Jeff Sessions said in a statement. �� Where there is a job available, U.S. workers should have a chance at it before we bring in workers from abroad.�

An official with the federal Civil Rights Division said the Colorado case is one of 29 investigations nationally of �potential discrimination against U.S. workers based on a hiring preference for foreign visa workers,� Fox News reported.
