Pilipo Novotny He mau lā wale nō kēia, ʻeā? Wall Street Pai paʻi ʻia palapala mai Tim Cook e pili ana i ke kānāwai anti-discrimination ENDA. I loko o ia mea, ua kū ka luna o Apple no nā kuleana o ka moekolohe a me nā mea liʻiliʻi ʻē aʻe ma ka wahi hana a kāhea aku i ka US Congress e ʻae i ke kānāwai. Ua loaʻa kēia i kēia manawa, ma hope o ka aneane iwakālua makahiki o ka hoʻoikaika ʻana.
Kāhea ʻia ʻo Tim Cook Act Kānāwai Hoʻokae ʻole i ka hana kākoʻo ʻia ma kahi haʻiʻōlelo laha ʻole. Wahi a ia, he mea koʻikoʻi loa ka hoʻopaʻi ʻana i ke kānāwai no ka hoʻokae ʻana i nā mea liʻiliʻi ma ka hana.
