Apple Inc. announced on Friday that it had donated $100,000 to fight California’s Proposition 8, which aims to change the state’s constitution in order to outlaw marriage equality, the San Francisco Chronicle reports.“Apple was among the first California companies to offer equal rights and benefits to our employees’ same-sex partners, and we strongly believe that a person’s fundamental right -- including the right to marry -- should not be affected by their sexual orientation,” the company said in a statement. “Apple views this as a civil rights issue rather than just a political issue and is therefore speaking out publicly against Proposition 8.”
