Tech Workers Demand Action from CEOs Against ICE Violence
In a growing movement, tech employees are urging their CEOs to publicly condemn the actions of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) following the killing of activist Alex Pretti. While some industry leaders like Reid Hoffman and Yann LeCun have spoken out, many top CEOs remain silent. A public letter, signed by over 450 employees from major companies like Google, Amazon, and TikTok, has called for these leaders to leverage their influence and pressure the Trump administration to cease ICE raids and violence. The silence of the tech giants contrasts sharply with the urgent calls for action from their workforce, as many employees fear the ramifications of government policies on their communities.
