- Steven_Vellon 7y agoNo, the above poster is pointing out the dishonesty in claiming that Chef has the ability to stop family separation and detainment.

- Porthos9K 7y agoAs CEO of Chef, Barry Crist has the authority to say, "Chef will withdraw from all ICE contracts. We cannot change ICE's policies, but we are not obligated to remain complicit in the harm these policies cause." He could have said this. He could have taken a stand and set an example. He chose to take the easy way out, and I think there are too many people in this thread willing to make excuses for his moral cowardice. He may have done the right thing as a CEO, but he has failed miserably as a human being and an American citizen.
