Apple is cerita lucah kakak sekuar ketattaking more of a stand for its employees.
On Friday, CEO Tim Cook spoke about the iPhone maker's plans to support Texas employees affected by the state's new abortion law, known as the "heartbeat" bill.
During an all-staff meeting broadcast to 160,000 Apple employees worldwide, Cook noted that Apple's medical insurance would kick in to help cover the costs incurred by workers who need to travel because of Texas' abortion access restrictions. The New York Timesobtained a recording of the employee-only meeting.
The state law went into effect earlier in September and it prohibits most abortions after a heartbeat is detected in the fetus, which can be as early as six weeks into a pregnancy. The law also pays out legal fees of at least $10,000 to anyone who sues someone, like a medical practitioner or insurance professional, who "aids or abets" an abortion once a heartbeat is detected.
Cook also said Apple was looking into helping with the legal battle against the abortion law. The Biden administration sued Texas over the ban. A federal hearing is scheduled for Oct. 1 to consider a temporary block to the ban.
Apple is one of the bigger tech companies taking a position in Texas politics concerning reproductive rights. Hewlett-Packard Enterprise, Match Group (Tinder's parent company), dating app Bumble, and some smaller companies like online survey software company QuestionPro, have also committed to helping Texas-based employees who need to travel for abortion access.

Ride-hailing companies Lyft and Uber have vowed to pay any legal fees for drivers sued for helping someone access an abortion. Other tech companies have interfered with the law in other ways, like domain hosting service GoDaddy cutting off Texas' abortion whistleblower website.
