The U.S. Department of Justice on Thursday sued Facebook alleging it discriminated against U.S. workers in hiring, favoring foreign workers on the H-1B visa, the agency announced Thursday.

At issue are 2,600 positions paying an average salary of about $156,000 that the Menlo Park social media giant allegedly set aside for foreign workers it wanted to sponsor for green cards, the Justice Department said in a news release.
