Microsoft has asked President Donald Trump\u2019s administration for an exception to the executive order (EO) on immigration that bans travel from seven majority-Muslim Countries.<\/p>\n
The computing behemoth is seeking a program that would allow people from those countries to enter and leave the United States on business or family emergency travel if they hold valid work or student visas and have not committed any crimes.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s not just Microsoft that is concerned with the immigration stance of the new president: Google, Apple and Amazon.com, all big employers of foreign-born tech talent, have expressed opposition to the administration\u2019s policies.<\/p>\n
I think people who already have green-card and valid work-visa in America should not be sent back to their own countries. It is unfair for people who work hard to stay in America. In addition, America is an immigration country, if president Trump wants to only keep citizens here, there won\u2019t be enough populations to support the country.<\/p>\n
