We are GitHub workers, demanding that GitHub management cancel the ICE contract.

people are dying, @natfriedman

[githubbers @githubbers]

As @github’s prized customer prepares to send troops into a second U.S. city to brutalize and kidnap civilians, know that HSI is the division of ICE that @natfriedman claims does enough good to justify keeping the contract #NoTechForIce #GitHubDropIce

If @github & tech’s complicity in ICE’s human rights abuses horrifies you, please take a moment today to help defend asylum #NoTechForICE #GitHubDropICE

[Human Rights First @humanrights1st]

FIVE DAYS LEFT to #SaveAsylum
The Trump Admin proposed a regulation that will DESTROY ASYLUM

WHAT CAN WE DO?
Flood the admin with public comments to defend asylum. Bring your outrage 👉 https://t.co/MK8tdCxvNn #SoundOfftoSaveAsylum

[AKA NickleDave @nicholdav]

@github @natfriedman still want to support #ICE now that they are presumably using your infra to put in place the #StudentBan that targets international students?

Anyone near CS knows those students play a major role in all US tech companies including yours. Save them

[Ben Jones @1kterafile]

This is a horrible policy, enacted for no reason other than bullying the vulnerable. Hey @github maybe now's a good time to stop working with these monsters?

“The reality is all work is political work...We’re all confronted with choices about how our labor is used, how we direct that, who we are really serving, who we’re working for and who benefits from the labor of our lives.” #NoTechForICE #GitHubDropICE

[githubbers @githubbers]

Surely ICE having better tech will make this go well. Your papers, please. #NoTechForICE #GitHubDropICE

[Aaron Reichlin-Melnick @ReichlinMelnick]

🚨This is a truly terrifying development.

Under the Trump administration's expansion of "expedited removal," ICE can snatch anyone off the street, anywhere in the US, and deport them in days if they can't prove that they're here legally, or have been here for at least two years.

If you've assumed Microsoft is the reason GitHub still hasn't dropped its ICE contract, notice that reason Nat cited. *Microsoft* does pick and choose customers. MS has policy wrt facial recognition contracts, for instance. Sticking with ICE is GitHub's policy, GitHub's decision.

[githubbers @githubbers]

_do_ Black lives matter to @github? Our continuing support of ICE says otherwise. “Black communities are over-policed and over-incarcerated, and as a result, Black immigrants are disproportionately funneled into the [lethal] immigration legal system.” https://t.co/ZlHdtVVO7w

GitHub’s CEO spoke at length about company support for Black Lives Matter at an all-hands meeting Thursday. When it came time for questions, outraged employees asked, how can we have this outwardly moral stance but continue to work with ICE? w/@JMBooyah https://t.co/jyxLSsL9nE

[Amazonians: We Won't Build It @WeWontBuildIt]

Which police contracts have you cut? How many remain?

[githubbers @githubbers]

Tech CEOs may speak out against systemic racism's history in the US, but they lack the moral backbone to stop aiding and profiting from the white supremacist institutions of today

[sunil pai @threepointone]

@natfriedman You have a chorus of people giving you very specific, direct action you can take, and you’re choosing not to engage with them. I get it, beholden to shareholders or whatever. But these tweets don’t reflect well on you, almost tonedeaf. Please reconsider your words and actions.

[githubbers @githubbers]

ICE is causing immeasurable harm to immigrants and inflicting uncertainty and anguish on their families. @github must cancel the ICE contract. #GithubDropICE #NoTechForICE

[GitHub Policy @GitHubPolicy]

Immigrants have always been vital to the US economy and to GitHub. Potential exec order to “temporarily suspend immigration” adds uncertainty and anguish for developers, will slow recovery and hinder innovation. We need immigrants to get us through this & help us move forward.

[Tableau Employee Ethics Alliance @TabEmpEthicsAll]

We stand together with the Amazonians of #wewontbuildit in their call! There are two fronts here which demand our attention... 1/
