Google Backs Biden Immigration Efforts, Offers to Cover Some Fees
Google said it backs President-elect Joe Biden’s promised immigration plans, and has offered to cover some of the application fees associated with the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.
Kent Walker, senior vice president of global affairs, said the company is making a $250,000 grant that will cover fees to DACA for more than 500 immigrants.
“We believe it’s important that Dreamers have a chance to apply for protection under the program so that they can safeguard their status in the United States,” he wrote in a blog post. “But in the middle of a global pandemic that has led to economic hardship, especially for the many immigrants playing essential roles on the front lines, there is concern that many Dreamers cannot afford to pay the application fee.”

Emily Horne, who worked for Twitter s global policy communications team, has joined the incoming Biden administration as the National Security Council spokesperson. Prior to working for Twitter, Horne was assistant press secretary and director for strategic communications at the National Security Council under former President Barack Obama.
