Apple Comes Out AGAINST California’s Prop 8

It’s great to know that my two favorite tech companies (Apple & Google) are both publicly against California’s  Prop 8!

Apple - Hot News - No on Prop 8 - October 24, 2008

Apple is publicly opposing Proposition 8 and making a donation of $100,000 to the No on 8 campaign. Apple was among the first California companies to offer equal rights and benefits to our employees’ same-sex partners, and we strongly believe that a person’s fundamental rights — including the right to marry — should not be affected by their sexual orientation. Apple views this as a civil rights issue, rather than just a political issue, and is therefore speaking out publicly against Proposition 8.

Listen to Itzhak Perlman talk about How Prop 8 takes away people’s civil rights and harms his entire family.

 

If you live in California, Please VOTE NO on Prop 8.
