Tech CEOs Melt Down over Trump Ending DACA

Tech CEOs across Silicon Valley expressed their anger and outrage at the decision by President Trump to end DACA today.

CEO’s across Silicon Valley took to Twitter and Facebook to express their anger and outrage over President Trump’s decision to end DACA. Apple CEO Tim Cook used Twitter to express his disapproval tweeting, “250 of my Apple coworkers are #Dreamers. I stand with them. They deserve our respect as equals and a solution rooted in American values.”

He also vowed that Apple would do their best to fight for their DACA workers.

And Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerburg posted a longer response on his Facebook page stating, “This is a sad day for our country. The decision to end DACA is not just wrong. It is particularly cruel to offer young people the American Dream, encourage them to come out of the shadows and trust our government, and then punish them for it.”
