Apple and Koch Industries don’t seem to have a lot in common, but their CEOs are both calling on Congress to pass legislation so “dreamers” can stay in the US.
Apple CEO Tim Cook and Koch Industries’ CEO Charles Koch teamed up to write an editorial published in The Washington Post.
In the op-ed, they call for Congress to pass legislation so that so-called “dreamer” immigrants can stay in the United States.
President Trump plans to remove protections for dreamers on March 5.
Apple and Koch Industries don’t seem to have a lot in common: one is public, the other is private and closely held by the Koch family. Apple sells premium phones and laptops. Koch Industries has holdings in lots of industries, particularly in the energy sector.
But the CEOs of the two companies have teamed up to write an op-ed for The Washington Post published on Thursday that expresses support for “dreamers,” or immigrants who came to this country when they were young but who lack a permanent legal status.
