Starbucks will offer legal advice to its employees and Singapore Archivestheir family members who are immigrants affected by Donald Trump's travel ban.
"Our partners (employees) and their families have questions about travel and immigration status, so we wanted to provide them with a newly developed Immigration Advisory Program to meet their needs," said Starbucks spokesperson Reggie Borges in an email.

The coffee giant is working with the immigration branch of Ernst & Young to offer an advisory team that employees and their families can reach out to with "questions about immigration, travel restrictions, or how the executive order and any related actions might otherwise impact you," as the company said in a memo to employees, according to ABC News.
The company has already vowed to hire 10,000 refugees over the next five years, a measure that actually drew the ire of Trump supporters who shortly after enlisted the #BoycottStarbucks hashtag.
"We are doing everything possible to support and help them to navigate through this confusing period."
But this new effort is tackling the needs of people who are already affected. And it seems that Starbucks has been trying to assist employees right from the start, as Howard Schultz explained in a memo in the immediate wake of the ban.
"I can assure you that our Partner Resources team has been in direct contact with the partners who are impacted by this immigration ban, and we are doing everything possible to support and help them to navigate through this confusing period," Schultz wrote in a memo that said the American Dream was being "called into question."
The company's so-called Global Mobility and Immigration team is expected to keep careful track of what happens with the immigration ban and what help is available to those affected.
"This team, supported by legal counsel, will stay on top of all the latest developments and will continue to be available as a resource for the most up-to-date and accurate information available," the company wrote in the memo.
