CLEVELAND — Hundreds of medical students and doctors have signed an open letter urging Cleveland Clinic to cancel a February fundraiser at the Florida resort owned by President Trump, after his executive order on immigration blocked one of the clinic’s doctors from reentering the US.
The letter, with more than 400 signatures, also calls on the clinic to publicly condemn Trump’s order, protect the clinic’s employees from deportation, and reaffirm its commitment to diversity. Dozens of the signers are medical students at Case Western Reserve University, which operates the Lerner College of Medicine in partnership with the clinic.

Every one must resist every thing this accident tries to do. The survival of this country and the world depend on it.
Dana Farber Cancer Center in Boston is also under pressure not to have their fund raiser at Trump’s Florida resort, according to the Boston Globe. They also intend to go ahead with it.
During the campaign I read that Mar-a-Lago charges Dana Farber for use of the facility. I never read that Trump donates to the fund raiser.
