Tech Companies File Amicus Brief Against Immigration Order Under Cover of Super Bowl Sunday

Yesterday, 97 companies filed an amicus brief in opposition to President Trump’s executive order on immigration. The list, which is dominated by the West Coast’s tech industry, includes some of the most liberal companies in our database.

You would think after Uber and Lyft found themselves in the middle of controversy last week over this very issue that companies would want to step away from the politics. However, it seems the leadership for many of these is doubling down on the politicized rhetoric.

Interestingly, the brief was filed on Super Bowl Sunday, a day when most of the country is tuned into events outside of the political arena.

Here are a few of the top examples with links to their scorepages:

Airbnb (1.3)
Apple (1.6)
eBay (1.8)
Facebook (1)
Google (1)
Intel (1)
Levi Strauss (1.6)
LinkedIn (2.1)
Lyft (1.3)
Microsoft (1)
PayPal (2.1)
Twitter (2.7)
Uber (2.4)
Yelp (2.1)
Zynga (2.4)

The rest of the companies are listed below and you can read the brief in its entirety here. However, we’ve got a great selection of companies that have stayed out of this debate on our Everyday Shopping Guide. If you haven’t checked it out yet, now would be a great time to find out which companies are closer to your values!
