No, there are no specific Homeland Security laws that protect felons from unfair hiring practices. However, there are broader laws such as the Fair Credit Reporting Act and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act that prohibit discrimination in hiring based on certain factors, including criminal history, and these laws may provide some protection for felons. It is advisable for individuals with criminal records to consult with an attorney to better understand their rights and options.
