Apple CEO Tim Cook's been busy lately fighting the court order to hack into an iPhone owned by one of the San Bernardino shooters.

But Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff thinks Cook should focus on a proposed bill in Georgia that some fear would allow "anti-gay" discrimination.

His comments came during an interview with CNBC's Jim Cramer on Thursday, when he was asked if Cook should "cave to the FBI."

"I think what Tim Cook should be doing is getting down right now to the state of Georgia and talking to those leaders about House Bill 757," Benioff said.
