Starbucks said that they will hire 10,000 refugees rather than American citizens. The federal EEOC (Equal Employment Opportunity Commission) says in its rules that it is a major civil rights violation to discriminate against someone's national origina. So it appears that there is a great basis for an individual or a class action lawsuit based on national origin (such as U.S. citizenship) here. If I'm a lawyer, I'd like to represent a number of black U.S. citizens as well as white and Asian and Hispanic ones.

Get those applications in at Starbucks - and contact a conservative lawyer (perhaps beforehand). Plus Starbucks is being boycotted by many. Like you can't get coffee somewhere else.
The backlash is already starting.
The Afro online paper says:

"While we don’t agree with the President’s position on immigration, our primary concern as an organization is for the economic empowerment of the African American community in the Greater Baltimore area,†said Debra Keller-Greene, Chair of the Greater Baltimore Black Chamber of Commerce via email. "There is no reason why Starbucks should seek to exclusively hire 10,000 refugees when there are thousands of African American citizens who are in need of employment right here in Baltimore and Maryland.â€

And Joe the Plumber says Starbucks should hire 10,000 Veterans instead.
