Separate sheet of paper
From December 3' d to the 22"d , 2001, I went to a school to learn how to drive tractor-trailers. I
graduated December 22, 2001, and applied for a job with the Covenant Transport Company in
Chattanooga, Tennessee. The person there in charge of hiring is (b) (6)
old me to
send her copies of the following documents:
- passport
- graduation diploma
- Social Security
- INS work authorization
- references from previous jobs
I Faxed copies of the documents to her, and later I received a package in the mail that contained,
among other things, a letter saying I had been conditionally accepted to receive orientation
classes. I called her to let her know I had received the package, and to ask when I should come
in for the classes. That was January 15` h . She told me I could not work at Covenant Transport
with the INS-issued permit, that I needed to have a green card to be able to work there.
On January 18, 2002 I called the Justice Department, and they faxed me information about unfair
employment practices. I sent a fax to Ms. (b) (6) opy of which I attach to this, containing the
information I had received from the Justice Department.
On the morning of February 22, 2002 (9:10am), Ms. (b) (6)
called me, saying she was the
manager of the human resources department. She apologized for what Ms. (b) (6) ad said to me,
and said there had been a misunderstanding in the office that contracts drivers. She told me to
fax her a copy of the letter I had received from Ms. (b) (6) as well as a copy of my passport,
diploma, CDL driver's license, Social Security, etc., because she hadn't been able to Ind the file
with my documents in it. She said that when she received the copies, she would call me that
same afternoon, or the next morning. She gave me her phone number, her extension, and her fax
number. She hasn't called back since. I called her back and left her a message on her answering
machine, and up to the present I have had no further contact with her.
Her telephone number i

With regard to our conversation, attached you will find Information regarding
discrimination laws from the Department of Justice. In our conversation you stated I
would not be eligible to work for your Company because I did not have a green card,
regardless of the fact that I have been authorized by the Immigration and
Naturalization Service to do so. For your information It is not necessary that I have a
green card, or be a natural citizen of the United States in order to work here. Only
that I have authorization by the United States Government. What ever your personal
feelings are I suggest you put them aside and reevaluate your conclusion. If you
have any further comments or wish to clarify your previous statement I welcome
them, otherwise I wit{ file the discrimination suit as planned.
