Apple CEO Tim Cook said in a filing to the Supreme Court on Wednesday that the company disagrees with President Trump’s decision to terminate DACA, the Obama-era program that shields some immigrants without documentation from being deported.
″We are distressed at the prospect of ripping our DACA colleagues from the fabric of our company,” Cook and HR head Deidre O’Brien wrote in a friend-of-the-court brief. Apple said it employs 443 dreamers, or people that DACA protects from deportation.
The Trump administration’s effort to undo DACA is part of a broader effort to restrict immigration, whether it’s through family separation at the U.S.-Mexico border or the imposition of a travel ban from several majority Muslim countries to the U.S. DACA and other immigration topics remain a national focus and are likely to be core issues during the 2020 presidential campaign.
DACA deportations could cost the US economy over $400 billion, according to a 2017 study. Amazon, Facebook, Google and Microsoft also oppose Trump’s policies.

Thanks for sharing today Tim. Sorry your slave trains from Mexico have given your plantation some budgetary constraints to deal with.
The case isn’t about DACA as it is about presidential executive orders. Since when is a executive order not able to be discontinued?
That is the case here
If democrats really cared about the DACA Kids, President Trump offered them a deal and they refused.
iSay Tim Cook is a sh:t head:)
Lil Timmy Cook can’t stand the fact that Obama isn’t president anymore. Trump’s DACA discontinuation is 100% Legal, probably even more legal then Obama’s creating the law in the first place
The question isn’t about DACA and more about executive orders, they are not laws, if the democrats want them to be laws, then pass the bill that makes DACA a law. Till then, go pound sand libtards
hey asshole, then why dont you house these cretins on our mansion to show us that you are so compassionate?
Sorry Tim we’re full of bug-eyed H1B types buying nice suburban houses and letting them to go s*** like their homeland.
They’re also horrible, dangerous drivers.
Go ahead Tim, and waste your company, and investor’s money suing for an Executive Order that was illegal to begin with. Knock yourself out.
I’m sure John Roberts will do the right thing (for the left) if he wants his secrets to remain as such.
“DACA deportations could cost the US economy over $400 billion”
Almost spit up my lunch with laughter at that one!
If the Mexicans are such wonderful workers, why doesn’t Apple open an office in Mexico City?
Tim Apple, putting his own needs ahead of the country’s.
DACA, the Obama-era program that shields some immigrants without documentation from being deported.
Non-citizens, illegal aliens, what a partisan media shill. Let's keep the dreamers, and exile the fake journalists.
DACA was never legal.
Obama had no legal authority to do that.
He admitted that a number of times.
Of course, he isn’t a natural born citizen so he wasn’t even eligible to be President, so....................
“iSay Tim Cook is a sh:t head:)”
He probably gets sh:t on a certain head.
Nothing self-serving about this at all, right??
Children shouldn’t benefit from the illegality of their parents.
Thimmy Cook is a vile & deviant homosexual pervert who infamously stated, “Homosexuals are God’s special people”.
I’ll celebrate when he dies and begins burning in hell.
Thimmy and his satanic ilk is exactly why America is falling.
So - so, brave.
Would that he’d be that stand up a guy against Xi or Saudi Arabia. Oh wait.. he isn’t...
