NgoJuni 15, 2012, uNobhala uJanet Napolitano wethule uhlelo lokuphatha lokho kuhlomulise izingane ezithile ezifudukayo nentsha (ebizwa ngokuthi abaphuphi-abaphuphi) abokufika abangenazo izincwadi eMelika ababenezinga elithile lemfundo futhi lokho futhi kwahlangabezana nezinye izidingo. Kamuva, uMongameli uBarack Obama usiqinisekisile lesi sinqumo. Lesi senzo esihlehlisiwe saziwa njenge-DACA (Isenzo Esidlulisiwe Sokufika Kwezingane). Ukucatshangelwa Kwesenzo Esihlehlisiwe Sokufika Kwezingane.
Ngemuva kwalokho, ngoSepthemba 5, 2017, abaphathi bakaTrump banquma ukumisa noma yisiphi isicelo sokubhaliswa kulolu hlelo. Lokhu kudale isiphithiphithi sangempela semithombo yezindaba esenze ubuntu kusuka kwezombusazwe nakweminye imikhakha, bazimisa ngalesi sinyathelo. U-Apple ungomunye wabo futhi manje wethule idokhumende esayinwe yinkampani noTim Cook noDeirdre O'Brien uqobo.
I-Apple igcina ukusekelwa kwayo kwe-DACA
Ngemuva kokususwa kwesenzo esihlehlisiwe se-DACA, ubuntu nezinkampani eziningi ngaphakathi nangaphandle kwe-United States ziveze ukuphikisana kwazo nesilinganiso esamukelwe yiTrump Administration. Njengamanje balwela ukujoyina okufanayo, ngokuthumela izikhalazo ezibhaliwe eNkantolo Ephakeme, eyaziyo futhi okumele ithathe isinqumo ngokusemthethweni noma cha ngokuqedwa.
INkantolo Ephakeme manje isilungele ukwenza ukuhlolwa kokusemthethweni kokususwa ohlelweni lwe-DACA. Ngalesi sizathu, i-Apple iphinde yabonisa intshisekelo yokuyigcina futhi ikhiphe incwadi ephikisana nobuhle bayo. Kepha kulokhu, le ncwadi ayisayinwa kuphela egameni lenkampani kusukela uTim Cook ngokwakhe kanye naye UDeirdre O'Brien Basigxivize isiginesha yabo ngaleyo ndlela bakhombisa ukusekelwa kwabo.
Encwadini i-Apple igxile ekubeni nabasebenzi abahlanu abavela kulolu hlelo lokufuduka. Kubakhombisa njengezimpahla zeqiniso futhi kuchaza nokuthi banikele kanjani kokubili enkampanini nasezweni. Kuyimizamo yokuvimba ukuthi bangadingiswa. Futhi ifuna ukuthatha izinyathelo ukuze bonke labo abathintekayo bangabi nayo inkemba yamaDamocles yokuxoshwa ilenga ngaphezu kwamakhanda abo.
I-Apple inayo futhi ibala nabaphuphi abanezinkontileka abangama-443 ezifundazweni ezingama-36
Kusukela ngesikhathi kwethulwa uhlelo lwe-DACA, i-Apple ibibambe iqhaza ngokuphelele kulo. Okwamanje inenkontileka engu-443 abaphuphayo ezifundeni ezihlukene ezingama-36, ezivela emazweni angaphezu kwama-25. Laba basebenzi benza imisebenzi ehlakazeke kakhulu, kusuka kuma-hardware nonjiniyela be-software, ochwepheshe nakumaqembu enkampani yenkxaso, phakathi kwabanye.
Umbiko ubhekise ezimweni ezinhlanu eziqondile, kepha uvikela futhi umele ngamunye wabasebenzi abaqashwe yi-Apple futhi abasesimweni esifanayo.
Ngamazwi athathwe embhalweni:
"IMelika ihamba phambili lapho bonke abantu bekhululekile ukufeza amaphupho abo." I-DACA iyisibonelo semigomo yase-United States, lapho abantu abafuna ukwenza ngcono izimpilo zabo kanye nemindeni yabo bamukelekile ezweni.
Sesiyazi ukuthi i-Apple futhi ikakhulukazi uTim Cook ngeke bayeke emizamweni yabo yokuqhubeka nokubiza ukuthi uhlelo lubuyiselwe. I-CEO ye-Apple isho kaningana ukuthi labo abayingxenye yohlelo "BangamaMelika njenganoma ubani kithi" nokuthi unesibopho sokuziphatha sokugcina laba bantu baphephile.
Kusukela ngoFebhuwari 2019, uCook no-Apple bajoyine umfelandawonye wezinkampani ezingaphezu kwekhulu ukucindezela iCongress ukuthi idlulise umthetho wokungena kwamanye amazwe ovikela izakhamizi. Iphupho, kepha kuze kube manje iCongress ayikazenzi izinguquko ezinjalo. Kaningi, kusetshenziswa ingcindezi ngokwethulwa kwalo mbhalo omusha onesisindo esithe xaxa uma kunokwenzeka, ngokunamathela kwesiginesha yeVice likaMongameli uDeirdre O'Brien, kube okokuqala ukuthi basebenze ndawonye.
