Not "why should", but "why do they object" is the right question. When big corporations jump in telling you "how you manage the police is bad for us" that's a big sign something's very wrong.
Some are complaining this letter is weak and generic.
Of course it is. You have 3M, Target, General Mills, Cargill, and US Bancorp on here, among others.
If you are looking for some revolutionary call to action, you're looking in the wrong place. And you're misunderstanding what's happening.
It is a really big deal for these very conservative, large, rich companies to be telling the federal government to cut it out, even if it is written in generic legalese.
The letter is not for you. It is for the administration. And it is extremely clear.
You can't have change unless you call out directly who is doing the wrongdoing. In this case, it's the executive branch of the federal government led by Trump. The letter is weak and toothless. Trump and DHS have shown no signs of stopping the ICE invasion, yet these companies call for all parties to come together "to find real solutions." These companies want to look good for the local community but are scared of getting targeted by Trump.

"C'mon guys, we're all on the same team here, let's talk it out" /s
Congress does not seem to object to the current practices of federal law enforcement, why corporate CEOs should?
