A taxpayer-funded group in New York City has taken out ads offering jobs to city residents, with one important proviso: No U.S. citizens need apply.
In a story first broken Tuesday by WABC Radio newsman George Weber, the New York Work Alliance began advertising for jobs that they said were available for "underprivileged job seekers" - as long as all applicants qualified as illegal aliens.

On Wednesday, Weber told NewsMax that the Work Alliance received over $4 million in state and federal funding.
Last week, New York City Councilmen James Oddo and James Gallagher confirmed rumors that the taxpayer-funded non-profit group had been discriminating against American citizens.
Responding to its ad, Gallagher contacted the Alliance inquiring about the job offer, telling the group: "The only problem is - I'm a U.S. citizen. I was born here."
The response?
"I'm sorry, sir. You can't have a job."
In the wake of Weber's report, the city's Human Rights Agency has ordered the NYWA to stop running the ads and to halt the practice of barring U.S. citizens from available jobs.
The Justice Department and the Equal Opportunity Employment Commission are investigating, Weber told NewsMax.
