What could possibly go wrong.......Snyder seeks 50,000 work visas to lure immigrants to Detroit

Snyder seeks 50,000 work visas to lure immigrants to Detroit | Crain's Detroit Business:
 "During a morning event at the IDEAL Group, a family-owned manufacturing and construction company in southwest Detroit whose founder is the grandson of Mexican immigrants, Snyder announced his plans to try to secure 50,000 work visas for the city over five years. 
The type of visas involved are not currently allocated by region or state, but rather go to legal immigrants who have advanced degrees or show exceptional ability in certain fields.
Under the governor's unique proposal, one-quarter of the nation’s 40,000 annual EB-2 visas would be designated for such immigrants willing to live and work for five years in Detroit."
