Microsoft chief executive Sayta Nadella sent a memo to employees late Tuesday saying that the tech giant's contract with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement is limited to administrative functions unrelated to the White House policy of separating children and families at the U.S.-Mexican border.

The memo came after more than 100 employees wrote a letter asking leadership to cancel the nearly $20 million contract with the federal agency amid nationwide condemnation of the Trump administration’s border control policy. The employees' letter was first published Tuesday by the New York Times.
