Is this legal?

I have noticed lately that there is a new trend in the good ol' USA going on of not hiring pilots unless they have a US passport. It even shows up on the pilot employment websites. It looks like a "green card" is not good enough anymore. I thought it was illegal under US constitution to discriminate against race, religion, country of origin, resident status and a few more. All of my former collegues have been refused jobs with American carriers because of their resident status. This looks illegal to me. Did I miss something the last few years or is this part of some sort of new GW act?
