    Anyone can sue for just about anything. The question is whether you will win.

    The first thing is your husband needs to consult an attorney on the slander/defamation part. He has to prove he was discriminated against, that the employer maliciously spread lies about him and that those lies have resulted in a financial loss. If he can successfully sue over this, then you might have grounds for your suit on emotional stress. Otherwise, you don't have a prayer of winning.
