This Oracle engineer is an undocumented immigrant. Here's why he says that Larry Ellison's Trump fundraiser is 'a blow to the stomach.'

Soto-Marquez is supporting the protests launched by some Oracle employees who have called for aagainst Ellison's planned Trump fundraiser, where they will leave work at noon local time on Thursday to "spend time volunteering or donating to programs and efforts that aim to resist administration policies that go against Oracle's Code of Conduct and Ethics policies."

Trump is known for what many consider offensive, even racist, views against immigrants, once suggesting that most Mexicans are rapists. Being undocumented meant a life of uncertainty as he was growing up. DACA, or Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, program changed that by allowing children of undocumented immigrants to be eligible to work and build a life in the US where they grew up.

"I have to worry pretty much constantly about DACA, whether I'm going to be allowed to work," he said. "And honestly, my family very much depends on my financial stability.""I think it's important for people like me to speak up even if their position is on the line," he said. "My whole life I've been told, keep your head down, listen to those into those above you and don't really rock the boat.

Why is he ilegal? Why he doesn’t do the right thing?

Huh? How the hell is he both an illegal alien and Oracle employee?

He’s taking the job of someone here legally. I don’t get why people support this but can walk by our homeless citizens.

Oh ffs.

Faster you learn, the better that most CEOs don’t care about their employees as much as the care about large shareholders

Because he’s here illegally?
