Hi, America. This is President Barack Obama. I am here to talk to you about a crisis that is facing our nation. Some of the nation's biggest technology companies are facing a shortage of workers. Hewlett Packard, Microsoft and Cisco, just to name 3, will be requiring over a million additional technology workers in the next decade. We need more young people to major in STEM, or else we may require more guest worker visas. I am setting a goal of getting more young people to major in STEM. I am also working to end the discrimination that is preventing more women from entering tech. Together we can solve this crisis.
Thank you and God bless,
Barack Obama
