Obama: GOP Immigration Stance is Political Suicide

On Friday, October 10, 2014, CNN published an article titled "Obama: GOP Immigration Stance is Political Suicide." The article (written by Eric Bradner) is about immigration and how the GOP risks "Losing a generation of immigrants" as said by Obama himself.
Obama wants to pass a law that allows more immigrants to come into the country. “Obama said he will make visa changes to allow more technically skilled workers to enter the United States, and noted that naturalized Americans have won 25% of the country's Nobel Prizes in the sciences” stated by Bradner. However, the Republicans are not fond of this idea because they feel there are too many people already in the country already (therefor adding more people will not help the situation). Obama wants to wait until the Midterm elections are over to pass this law (he thinks that after the election, he will get more people to approve of his decision). Republicans think otherwise.
This article is worth reading because it involves more people that may or may not be allowed into our country. This will affect the job market.
