苹果公司CEO库克周三向美国最高法院提交一份简报，反对特朗普终止一项旨在保护数十万非法儿童移民免遭遣返的计划。该计划的正式名称是“儿童入境延期行动”（Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals）（DACA），俗称“追梦人”（Dreamers）计划，是奥巴马任期内开始实施的。迄今已经保护了大约80万非法儿童移民免遭遣返，并允许他们在美国合法工作。

Tech giant Apple is fighting for its employees who are Dreamers by going against the Trump administration’s attempts to get of Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA.
CEO Tim Cook and Senior Vice President Deirdre O’Brien filed an amicus brief with the Supreme Court on Wednesday to voice the company’s support for DACA, an immigration program that President Donald Trump tried to destroy in 2017 but has been kept active due to several court appeals.
“In their patriotism, dedication to their families and communities, and commitment to making their country a better place, they are as American as any of us,” the amicus, or friend-of-the-court, brief said of the approximately 800,000 undocumented young adults DACA has protected from deportation. “They simply want the opportunity to continue to work, meet their obligations to society, raise and support their families, and pursue the American dream.”
Both Cook and Apple have supported DACA recipients in the past, though Wednesday is the first time Cook put his own name on a brief. The brief said Apple employs 443 DACA recipients who come from more than 25 countries, and it detailed the stories of five employees “who play vital roles throughout Apple” but remained anonymous in the brief because they “fear retribution.”
“We did not hire them out of kindness or charity. We did it because Dreamers embody Apple’s innovation strategy,” Apple wrote in the brief. “They come from diverse backgrounds and display a wide range of skills and experiences that equip them to tackle problems from different perspectives. Because they thrived in the face of adversity, they often exhibit extraordinary levels of grit and drive.”

库克与特朗普保持着密切的联系，但公开反对特朗普废除“追梦人”移民计划是库克对特朗普最直接的指责。
Cook has met with Trump before and has recently spoken to Trump about how tariffs on Chinese goods will harm Apple. But this is the most direct rebuke of Trump from Apple and Cook.

科技巨头苹果公司正在为其受益于“追梦人”计划的员工而努力，反对特朗普政府试图终止“儿童入境延期行动”计划，或称DACA计划。
CEO Tim Cook and Senior Vice President Deirdre O’Brien filed an amicus brief with the Supreme Court on Wednesday to voice the company’s support for DACA, an immigration program that President Donald Trump tried to destroy in 2017 but has been kept active due to several court appeals.
周三，苹果公司首席执行官蒂姆·库克和高级副总裁戴尔德雷·奥布莱恩向最高法院提交了一份“法庭之友”简报，（法庭之友是指并非争议的当事人，但向正在处理争议的法院提出意见的人，可以是一个个人，也可以是一个组织。）表达了公司对DACA移民计划的支持。特朗普总统曾在2017年试图终止DACA移民计划，但由于几次法院上诉，该计划一直处于有效状态。
“In their patriotism, dedication to their families and communities, and commitment to making their country a better place, they are as American as any of us,” the amicus, or friend-of-the-court, brief said of the approximately 800,000 undocumented young adults DACA has protected from deportation. “They simply want the opportunity to continue to work, meet their obligations to society, raise and support their families, and pursue the American dream.”
“他们和我们一样是美国人，因为他们的爱国精神、对家庭和社区的奉献精神，以及让国家变得更美好的承诺，和我们是一样的，”法庭之友”简报在谈到约80万没有合法身份的年轻人受DACA保护而免于被驱逐出境时说道。“他们只是希望有机会继续工作，履行他们对社会的义务，抚养和支撑他们的家庭，以及追求美国梦。”

这是库克的名字首次出现在“法庭之友”简报中。他表示雇佣这些“追梦人”并非出于慈善，而是他们体现了苹果公司的创新战略。
Both Cook and Apple have supported DACA recipients in the past, though Wednesday is the first time Cook put his own name on a brief. The brief said Apple employs 443 DACA recipients who come from more than 25 countries, and it detailed the stories of five employees “who play vital roles throughout Apple” but remained anonymous in the brief because they “fear retribution.”
尽管库克首次将自己的名字写在周三提交的简报上，库克和苹果公司过去都曾支持DACA计划的受益者。简报称，苹果雇佣了443名DACA计划受益者，他们来自超过25个国家。简报详细描述了五名“在苹果公司起到重要作用”的员工的故事，但简报中没有透露他们的姓名，因为他们“害怕遭到报复”。
“We did not hire them out of kindness or charity. We did it because Dreamers embody Apple’s innovation strategy,” Apple wrote in the brief. “They come from diverse backgrounds and display a wide range of skills and experiences that equip them to tackle problems from different perspectives. Because they thrived in the face of adversity, they often exhibit extraordinary levels of grit and drive.”
“我们雇佣他们不是出于善意或慈善。我们雇佣他们是因为追梦人体现了苹果的创新战略，”苹果在简报中写道。“他们来自不同的背景，展示了广泛的技能和经验，使他们能够从不同的角度解决问题。因为他们在逆境中茁壮成长，他们往往表现出非凡的毅力和干劲。”
