The attorney general of Washington state filed a lawsuit Monday challenging President Donald Trump's controversial immigration order, and he&039;s counting two Washington-based companies as courtroom allies: Amazon and Expedia.
Both companies submitted sworn statements as part of the lawsuit, each highlighting the business harms they face as a direct result of Trump&039;s travel ban. The legal battle marks the latest move in escalating tensions between technology companies and the Trump administration that has thus far played out only in public statements.
“Expedia believes that the executive order jeopardizes its corporate mission and could have a detrimental impact on its business and its employees, as well as the broader U.S. and global travel and tourism industry,” Robert Dzielak, Expedia&039;s executive vice president and general counsel, wrote in a declaration.
According to Dzielak, more than 1,000 Expedia customers who hold passports from one of the 7 affected countries — Syria, Iraq, Iran, Sudan, Somalia, Libya, and Yemen — have current bookings that begin, end, or connect in the United States. Dzielak noted that it&039;s unclear which of its customers will be affected, and how, posing additional burdens to the company as it tries to interpret and monitor how the executive order is being applied. In addition, Expedia said that several of its employees based in the US and abroad will be prevented from traveling.
“The direct financial impact to Expedia resulting from the Executive order ranging from increased business costs to the broader impact on the global travel market is not yet known,” Dzielak wrote.
Ayesha Blackwell-Hawkins, Amazon&039;s senior manager of mobility and immigration, said the executive order “immediately — and negatively — impacted employees, dependents of employees, and candidates for employment with Amazon.”
Amazon is aware of 49 employees born in one of the seven countries, 47 of whom are citizens of another country, while the remaining two have permanent legal residents elsewhere.
“One example of an impacted employee is a senior Amazon lawyer who was born in
Libya but has been a UK citizen for many years,” Blackwell-Hawkins wrote. “This employee had plans to travel to the United States for business during the month of February. We have instructed the employee to cancel her plans and remain in the UK rather than risk being denied entry to the United States.”
Amazon said it is aware of 10 dependents of employees who were born in the countries affected but live in the US lawfully.
In addition, Amazon has extended employment offers to seven people born in Iran but who are currently citizens of other countries: Germany, Canada and Australia. According to Blackwell-Hawkins, Amazon is “assessing alternatives,” possibly placing them in other countries outside the US.
In an email to employees Monday, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, said his company would explore legislative options to challenge the immigration order. “We are working other legal options as well,” he wrote.
A spokesperson for Microsoft, another Washington-based business, told BuzzFeed News: “Microsoft has been supportive and has provided information to the Attorney General and is willing to provide further testimony if necessary.”
Earlier in the day, White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer defended the president&039;s immigration order. “The majority of Americans agree with the president,” he said. “They recognize that the steps that he&039;s taken were to keep this country safe and to make sure that we didn&039;t look back and say &039;I wish we had done the following.&039;”
Here are the declarations in full:

Has it sunk in yet that DockerCon is in roughly 2 months? That’s right, this year we gather in April as a community and ecosystem in Austin, Texas for 3 days of deep learning and networking (with a side serving of Docker fun). DockerCon is the annual community and industry event for makers and operators of next generation distributed apps built with containers. If Docker is important to your daily workflow or your business, you and your team (reach out for group discounts) should attend this conference to stay up to date on the latest progress with the Docker platform and ecosystem.
Do you really want to go to DockerCon, but are having a hard time convincing your manager on pulling the trigger to send you? Have you already explained that sessions, training and hands-on exercises are definitely worth the financial investment and time away from your desk?
Well, fear not! We’ve put together a few more resources and reasons to help convince your manager that DockerCon 2017 on April 17-20, is an invaluable experience you need to attend.
Something for everyone
DockerCon is the best place to learn and share your experiences with the industry’s greatest minds and the guarantee to bring learnings back to your team. We will have plenty of learning materials and networking opportunities specific to our 3 main audiences:
1. Developers
From programming language specific workshops such as Docker for Java developers or modernizing monolithic ASP.NET applications with Docker, to sessions on building effective Docker images or using Docker for Mac, Docker for Windows and Docker Cloud, the DockerCon agenda will showcase plenty of hands-on content for developers.
2. IT Pros
The review committee is also making sure to include lots of learning materials for IT pros. Register now if you want to attend the orchestration and networking workshops as they will sold out soon. Here is the list of Ops centric topics, which will be covered in the breakout sessions: #container tracing, container and cluster monitoring, container orchestration, securing the software supply chain and the Docker for AWS and Docker for Azure editions.
3. Enterprise
Every DockerCon attendee will also have the opportunity to learn how Docker offers an integrated Container-as-a-Service platform for developers and IT operations to collaborate in the enterprise software supply chain. Companies with a lot of experience running Docker in production will go over their reference architecture and explain how they brought security, policy and controls to their application lifecycle without sacrificing any agility or application portability. Use case sessions will be heavy on technical detail and implementation advice.
Proof is in the numbers
According to surveyed DockerCon attendees, 91% would recommend investing in DockerCon again, not to mention DockerCon 2016 scored an improved NPS of 61.
DockerCon continues to grow due to high demand. DockerCon attendance has increased 900% since 2014 and +25% in the just the last year. We hope to continue to welcome more to DockerCon and the community each year while preserving the intimacy of the conference.
87% of surveyed attendees said the content and subject matter was relevant to their professional endeavours.
Take part in priceless learning opportunities
At the heart of DockerCon are amazing learning opportunities from not just the Docker team but the entire community. This year we will provide event more tools and resources to facilitate professional networking, learning and mentorship opportunities based on areas of expertise and interest. No matter your expertise level, DockerCon is the one place where you can not only learn and ask, but also teach and help. To us, this is what makes DockerCon unlike any other conference.
Leave motivated to create something amazing
The core theme of every DockerCon is to celebrate the makers within us all. Through the robust content and pure energy of the community, we are confident that you will leave DockerCon inspired to return to work to apply all of your new knowledge and best practices to your line of work. Don’t believe us? Just check out our closing session of 2016 that featured cool hacks created by community and Docker team members.
DockerCon Schedule
We have extended the conference this year to 3 days with instructor led workshops beginning on Monday afternoon. General sessions, breakout sessions and ecosystem expo will take place Tuesday – Wednesday. We’ve added the extra day to the conference to help your over crammed agendas with repeat top sessions, hands on labs and mini summits that will take place on Thursday, April 20.
