Obama: Executive Amnesty Anger Means Immigration Reform Low Priority

Wednesday at Business Roundtable quarterly meeting, President Barack Obama said that his executive action granting amnesty to upwards of 5 million illegal immigrants already living in the Untied States means “temperatures need to cool” before comprehensive immigration reform can be passed.

After answering a question on his legislative priorities the president said, “Finally on immigration I think that’s something that probably comes last. I suspect that temperatures need to cool a bit in wake of my executive action.”
