Cnn Business: Letter and Daca Program

cnn business: This is no time to disrupt the economic recovery of our companies and communities, nor time to jeopardize the health and safety of these vulnerable individuals, the letter says, according to CTV. We ask that you leave DACA in place and refrain from taking any additional administrative actions that would negatively impact the DACA program. The letter arguing in support of the Obama-era Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals DACA program was sent by the Coalition for the American Dream, and was signed by more than 100 corporations including Apple, Hilton Worldwide, General Motors, Starbucks, Google and Amazon. IBM, one of the signatories to the letter, explained to CNN Business in a statement why it signed the letter. There is no benefit to subjecting these young men and women to more unilateral action and lengthy court fights. Dreamers make invaluable contributions to companies and communities across this country, said Christopher A. Padilla, IBM's vice president for government and regulatory affairs.
