Tech firms back legal fight against Trump's travel ban
The lawsuit, filed by Washington Attorney General Bob Ferguson, aims to prove that President Trump's order, which temporarily bars nationals from seven Muslim-majority countries from entering the US, is unconstitutional. Amazon's Jeff Bezos said his firm had "Prepared a declaration of support". It is the latest protest in a chorus of disapproval from Silicon Valley over the controversial executive order signed by President Trump. Many firms have expressed concern about the order's effect on employees, with some saying it violates company principles. "They recognise that the steps that he's taken were to keep this country safe and to make sure that we didn't look back and say, 'I wish we had done the following,'" said spokesman Sean Spicer.
