If that's the only reason, then it's unlawful. You might first write to corporate headquarters to complain. If that gets you no satisfaction and you wish to pursue it, then a lawsuit might be appropriate.

IF you can prove that occurred, for that reason, through admissible evidence and testimony, then you have a claim for illegal discrimination. Proof is more than your word versus theirs. If you have any such proof, feel free to contact me to discuss your rights and remedies.
