Immigration Policies: Immigration and Exception Program

immigration policies: Microsoft seeks exception program on Trump immigration orders Silicon Valley pushes back at Trump immigration crackdown Joining the group was not meant to be an endorsement of the president or his agenda, but unfortunately it has been misinterpreted to be exactly that, Kalanick, who had planned to attend a meeting of the group on Friday, said in the email, according to CBC. He said he spoke briefly to Trump about the immigration order and its issues for our community and told the president he would not join the economic council. The CEO of the ride-hailing service had been under mounting pressure from activists who oppose the administration's immigration policies, including Uber drivers, many of whom are immigrants themselves. The CEO came under increasing pressure to leave the council after Trump issued an executive order temporarily barring entry to people from seven majority-Muslim nations. The executive order is hurting many people in communities all across America, he wrote in a note to employees. There are many ways we will continue to advocate for just change on immigration, but staying on the council was going to get in the way of that. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
