That is why we saw close to 100 companies file a legal brief earlier this week against the Muslim ban put in place by the President and implemented by a man who has been mentored by Senator Sessions. The brief they filed notes an important statistic about our country. More than 200 companies currently listed on the Fortune 500 list are founded by immigrants or the children of immigrants, and this stands in direct contrast to the nominee's views. If immigrants are coming to the United States and starting businesses and hiring people, they aren't taking jobs from Americans. They are creating jobs for Americans, and that has been the story of our country since the very beginning. Immigration is one of the cornerstones of our country, and the nominee's policy proposals would chip away at that. The world is watching. History is watching.
