The decision of President Barack Obama to invoke his executive power that is granted to him in the American constitution to announce the several new measures that will address the immigration crisis in America has a lot of political implications and consequences from now till 2016.
How will the GOP controlled US Congress react to this huge political development? Will GOP enact its own immigration law to make the Obama's new immigration policy of no effect, null and void? Will GOP response with an impeachment move on this President? Will GOP go ahead to shut down the federal government again like the way they did in 2013 over Obamacare? Will GOP continue to be the obstructive party in the US Congress that will not pass any bill into law nor work on any compromise bill with this President? Will GOP continue with their political agendas, such as, the Keystone XL pipeline proposed project, privatization of social security, medicare and medicaid, defunding of Obamacare and providing tax reform for the big corporations and wealthy Americans and without touching the comprehensive immigration bill?
No matter what the new GOP controlled US Congress decides to do with their majority in the US Congress for the next two years will not prevent their party from paying the huge price for refusing to do nothing with the immigration reform bill at the polls in 2016 and for many years to come from the highly disappointed Hispanic-American voting bloc that is now the fastest growing voting population in America #ObamaIsAShrewdPolitician
