A swath of snow will blanket areas across the up- per Great Lakes to northern New England. A swath of icy travel will extend from parts of central Wisconsin and Michigan to New York state and central New England. Rain and thunderstorms are forecast farther south from the the lower Great Lakes and southern New England to the central Gulf Coast. Storms can become strong enough to cause power outages, flooding and property dam- age in parts of the Ohio and Tennessee valleys.

Although the companies are risking a backlash from customers who side with Trump, they say the push- back is necessary for an in- dustry dependent on thou- sands of highly skilled for- eign workers. About 58 percent of the engineers and other high-skill employees in Silicon Valley were born outside the U.S., according to the Silicon Valley Leader- shipGroup,anindustrytrade group. "Immigrationandinnova- tion go hand in hand," said Carl Guardino, the group's CEO. "This cuts so deeply into the bone and marrow of what fuels the innovation economy that very few CEOs feel the luxury of sitting on the sidelines. So people are going to stand up and speak up." The tech industry con- tends there aren't enough Americans with the special- ized skills these companies need. The ban, tech compa- nies say, would make hiring even tougher and pressure them to move some opera- tions abroad. "A lot of these compa- nies will really struggle if all of a sudden we turn off the spigot," said Greg Morrisett, dean of Cornell University's Computing and Information Science school. In a court filing Sunday against the ban, 97 compa- nies, including such major tech players as Google, Ap- ple, Microsoft, eBay, Netflix, Facebook and Twitter, also spoke of the entrepreneurial spirit of "people who choose to leave everything that is fa- miliar and journey to an un- known land to make a new life." Google CEO Sundar Pi- chaiandMicrosoftCEOSatya Nadella both came from In- dia. Google co-founder Ser- gey Brin is a Russian refugee who moved to the U.S. as a boy.ThefatherofApple'slate co-founder,SteveJobs,immi- grated from Syria. The Silicon Valley Lead- ership Group estimates that half the companies in the re- gion were co-founded by an immigrant or are now led by a CEO from outside the U.S. Insigninganexecutiveor- derJan.27thatwouldtempo- rarily ban people from seven Muslim-majority countries, Trump said he was trying to protect Americans by pre- venting terrorists from slip- pingintothecountry.Thead- ministration says the presi- dent has the constitutional authority to decide who can enter. SILICON VALLEY Tech companies take stand against travel ban By Philip Marcelo The Associated Press BOSTON A liberal arts col- lege in Massachusetts has created a refugee scholar- ship in response to Presi- dent Donald Trump's order on immigration and refu- gees and is calling on other colleges to do the same. Wheaton College in Nor- ton announced the offer af- ter the Republican billion- aire issued his Jan. 27 ex- ecutive order, suspending America's refugee program and halting immigration to theUnitedStatesfromseven Muslim-majority countries. On Saturday, the U.S. gov- ernment suspended enforce- ment of the ban a day after a federal judge in Washington state temporarily blocked it. College President Dennis Hanno said the scholarship is meant to demonstrate that Wheaton embraces its foreign-born community, even as the White House moves in the opposite di- rection. "We value the differ- entperspectivespeoplefrom all around the world bring to Wheaton," he said, not- ing that about 18 percent of the college's 1,650 students hail from more than 70 dif- ferent foreign nations. "It's about wanting to take im- mediate action to preserve that environment we've cre- ated here." Hanno stressed the col- lege has no intention of vio- lating any federal mandates. Wheaton's Refugee Schol- arship is open to any refugee student fleeing conflict, but applicants from the seven countries specifically tar- geted by Trump's order — Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen — would be given special pref- erence. "We're not trying to do anything illegal," Hanno said. "It's really about try- ing to send a message to stu- dents who would normally be interested in Wheaton College that we're still in- terested in them, and hope they're still interested in us." A spokesman for the U.S. Department of Education declined to comment Friday.
