"About two-thirds of Americans think that ICE has gone too far in enforcing immigration laws; killing nurses helping women being attacked by ICE and boasting about silencing dissent is not the way to win people on your side."
"Roughly 50 Harvard Law School students rallied Wednesday outside Wasserstein Hall, urging the University to divest from major tech companies they say help power immigration enforcement and to cut recruiting ties with law firms they allege collaborate with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement."
"ICE ordered $30M worth of tracking tech from Palantir last year, the Department of Homeland Services houses loads of their information using Amazon Web Services, and ICE has tripled their reliance on Microsoft in the last 6 months."
Public support for ICE is decreasing, with about two-thirds of Americans believing it has overstepped its bounds in immigration enforcement. Harvard Law students are advocating for the university to divest from tech companies like Palantir, Meta, and Amazon, which they claim support ICE's operations. They also demand the suspension of recruitment ties with law firms that have collaborated with ICE. Evidence shows significant contracts between ICE and these companies, although the connection with law firms is less clear, with some firms showing mixed responses to ICE's actions.
