Rep. Honda, Survivor of Japanese Internment Camp, Decries Trump Proposal for Muslim Registry

On Wednesday, heads of the nation’s top technology companies met with President-elect Donald Trump at Trump Tower. Among those attending were Apple CEO Tim Cook, Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg and Amazon CEO Jeffrey Bezos. Wednesday’s meeting reportedly focused on jobs and the economy. But there is another issue that has been getting some attention within the tech world: Donald Trump’s proposal to build a national registry for people from Muslim-majority countries. Hundreds of tech workers have signed on to a pledge titled "Never Again," saying, "We refuse to participate in the creation of databases of identifying information for the United States government to target individuals based on race, religion, or national origin." Twitter became the first major tech company to say it would not participate in the creation of such a database. Facebook has also said it would not help Trump.

He represents California’s 17th District, where Google and Apple are based.
