You can either go to court and file a summons and complaint against the employer, drawing up the documents to comply with court rules, then having it served (hand delivered) on the employer in accordance with court rules...or you can contact the federal EEOC and make a complaint to them, which--if they deem it may have merit--they may then take, investigate, and bring legal action based on, on your behalf. The EEOC contains experts in doing this; you are (presumbly) not an expert at either court procedures or employment law. Go to the EEOC (Equal Employment Opportunity Commission) first and see if they can help--if they can't, you can always file a lawsuit later. "Google" the EEOC and you'll get the contact information and instructions for bringing a complaint to them. Good luck.
