it is thursday, august 3rd, 2017. welcome back to "cbs this morning." president trump pushes for a new policy on legal immigration. ahead, republican senator tim scott tells us how the bill affects all of congress's agenda. plus, the industries that are hiring right now and the reasons why some of them cannot find workers. but first here is today's "eye opener" at 8:00. president trump is backing a republican plan to cut legal immigration in half. he faces strong opposition. >> president trump toyed with pushing comprehensive immigration reform but for now is focusing on just one part of the system. >> investigators are trying to determine how a gas leak
8:01 am
triggered deadly explosion at a school in minneapolis. >> you see the hole to the left of the chimney? that's what the force of this blast did to this brick school. >> the children injured here at this ymca were young. >> a lifeguard reported a strong chemical spill. >> they started showing sympt s symptoms. >> for the first time scientists have repaired a faulty gene in human embryo. the goal is to prevent some inherited diseases. >> take a look at this giant sign they posted outside on a tractor trailer. >> you went to a town hall meeting in ohio. >> it seems strange if it's on the news and you see me like. in the town, it's like everybody knows that. it's like "the simpsons." you see the same people every day and i'm like the local crusty the clown. >> announcer: this morning's
8:02 am
"eye opener" at 8:00 is presented by toyota. i'm charlie rose with margaret brennan and vladimir duthiers. gayle and norah are off. president trump says the nil bill or immigration will protect american workers but it faces an uphill battle in congress. the r.a.i.s.e. act would cut the number of illegal immigrants in half in ten years. >> they would use education, the ability to speak english, and high paying job offers. the plan eliminates preferences allows immigrants to bring over extended family and their spouses and children. children under 18 would not be affected. >> senator lindsey graham said in a statement, if this proposal were to become law, it would be devastating to our state's economy which relies on the immigrant work force.
8:03 am
they're struggling with other issues like health care and tax reform. >> senator tim scott is with us from capitol hill. he's with the senate on financial committee. senator scott, good morning. >> good morning. good to be with you all this morning. >> lay out what your problem is with this proposal. >> at the end of the day the reality is our competitors, other countries, use a merit-based system. that's not bad idea it's good unit. but the reality is our sub unit is the family. it isn't the number. if there's needs if reforms, we should reform the systems that need to be reformed but the reality of it is it has less to do with the number and more to do with the reforms. in south carolina there are a lot of jobs that go unfilled because we can't find the workers to do those jobs. >> how would you reform immigration? >> there's a need for a hybrid
8:04 am
system. our stem is a major part of it. we need more workers in that space there. also our agriculture. if you visit a form in south caroina, they're desperate for workers. we need a hybrid system that matches our economy. and at the same time, my sister-in-law is a great example. she immigrated from korea, helped create my nephew who i call an heir to the scott throne, i want to make sure folks have the opportunity to assimilate to being an american. what we should look for are hybrids where we meet our economic needs and at the same time allow for family cohesion to be what it always has been, which is the anchor of the american society. >> well, agriculture and tourism are both industries that are important to your home staid and that's what i think you're talking about being impacted. when you're talking about
8:05 am
putting a preference toward skilled workers, this is something that australia and canada has implemented. is it about cutting the card numbers in half? >> having a merit based system to have the workers necessary to grow our economy is an absolute necessity. it's essential. you can do both. you can have a system that rewards merit based in the areas where we need it and at the same time allows for family cohesion to continue. i'm a big proponent to sit down at the table, figure out which way is up because right now we have a lot of issues we haven't figured that out on, and if we can figure it out, head in that direction tochl me, up is more workers who meet the high demands that we have within our economy. high demand is s.t.e.m. engineering jobs our tourism in my statement we need to match the folks coming into the country with the jobs we need
8:06 am
and we certainly should have a merit-based system, but at the same time, there's nothing wrong with making sure that we create access for family members who are already here as long as we do it right. that's the legal immigration system has not been the focus, nor has it been the problem for us for the last several years. >> senator, you're heading home on august recess. what are you going to tell your recipients about plans for reform? we haven't seen the specifics yet. >> i've been in a lot of them. the one thing all three of us have in common is the need to lower taxes for the average worker. the truth is that while the stockmarket is hitting new highs, it seems every day, the average worker has not seen at inklis in their pay. one of the ways we get increases in the take home money is not to take it out of their paychecks. that's what it should focus on,
8:07 am
those folks in the middle income brakts that haven't seen a raise in almost a decade. >> what does it mean to get a health care reform to replace obamacare, say, about the republican party? >> dollarly, it says that health care has a difficult conversationnd it's hard to get 52 members on the same page and we lost one more than we could afford. we were at 49 instead of 50 it's big deal for us. a huge deal for health care. the reality is we have to find a way. obamacare is imploding. we have to find a way to fix it. the next conversation will start with the individual market where the pain is the most because the market is small. only 20 million americans are in the market. about a million and a half have complex diseases that will need some type of reassurance. >> one quick follow-up. is it likely to take place
8:08 am
before or after midterm elect n elections? >> absolutely before. we're looking at a 33% increase on top of 120% over the next three years we can't wait to start fixing the problems that are really causing so many merns pain, suffering, and a loss of their paychecks. >> senator scott, thanks so much for joining us this morning. >> yes, sir. have a great day. this morning new england patriots quarterback tom brady celebrating his book will come out in september. it's how he stays in shape. it's an athlete's bible for exercising and eating and living. by simon & schuster, part of

8:15 am
we spoke about it. >> you see a particular segment of the film that you want to replace. you can go in and snip out a piece and replace it with something that corrects a mutation that would cause disease. >> our dr. david agus is in los angeles. good morning, doctor. put aside some of the questions about ethical issues here. on a purely scientific basis, how big of a breakthrough is this? >> well, human genetic engineering yesterday was science fiction and today it's reality. so they took normal eggs from women and they injected them with sperm from a man that had high powe trow fix cardiomyopathy. this when high school athletes pushed themselves and suffer sudden death. what it does is it searches out the one error in the 3 billion
8:16 am
letters of the dna code and it chops it out and the dna corrects itself. in 72% of the em breaux owes they did it, it worked. three days later they sacrificed the embryos they fertilized but this was an exercise that showed it was possible. >> is this a gene that shows it corrects itself? >> part of it is it corrects itself and part of it is what can be done here. it was originally discovered in bacteria and it works in human cells and embryos and it's viable. what it looks like is it's precise. the other three letters weren't touched. >> margaret pointed out there are ethical concerns. what are they and how will it be addressed? >> this is the beginning of a new frontier. we can change embryos.

fibrosis, alzheimer's, cystic fibrosis could be a thing of the past. but then you could change hair and eye color. >> who makes the decisions? >> no question. if we decide, all you have do is get on a plane and go to mexico or somewhere else. this is a small lab that does this. >> give me one example of might be possible in the next five years? >> in the next five years people with hiv, we can take out their immune cells and change it so the virus can't get in. all of a sudden hhiv patients would not have aids.

"washington post" reports things got tense during an exchange at the white house. it was between stephen miller and reporter jim acosta and glen brush. they were discussing new immigration legislation introduced by the president. >> it looks like you're trying to engineer the racial and ethnic flow of people into this country. >> jim, that is one of the most outrageous, insulting, ignorant, and foolish things to have ever said, and for you to really -- the notion that you think this is a rashest bill is so wrong and so insulting. i think it's very clear that you
8:31 am
don't have common sense. if i could just answer your question -- i named -- glen, glen, i named the studies -- >> i asked you for a statistic. >> glen, maybe we'll make a carveout in the bill that says "the new york times" can hire all the low skilled less paid workers and see how you feel about the substitution. this is a reality that's happening in the country. maybe it's time, glen, we have compassion for american workers. >> it's not the first time miller raised eyebrows. in february he was criticized for backing unproven claims for voter fraud. the "los angeles times" has a story we brought you this week about university irvine revoking hundreds of admissions offers. hundreds more freshmen than expected had accepted their admission offer this fall after

queen. cbs explores the future of jobs and the issues facing the american work force. this morning we look at how employers are handling the booming job market. hiring is up more than 17% nationwide compared to july 2016. according to linked in, work force for august, but in some parts of the congress they face challenges ranging from from an employees skills gap to a growing problem with drug abuse. good morning. >> good morning. >> tell us what these reports tell us about the capacity to go higher. you're seeing lots of industries in double-digit growth hiring. manufacturing, oil and gas has seen double digit gas, aerospace, manufacturing, places where you actually need people to build things that other people are going to buy. these are areas that haven't
8:35 am
grown in the past. this year we see it grow. >> how do they use linked in to recruit people? >> we're looking at what workers are telling us about where they live, where they're working, what kind of jobs and skills that they currently have. it's not about recruiters. they're updating their job saying i not worrying at this manufacturing company, i'm working at oil & gas. we see the skills gap. in certain cities, which jobs are getting picked up the fastest and what they're being hired for and what they're not being hired for. >> what are some of those skills gaps? >> there are some cities with hiring is just booming. seattle, portland, oregon, denver. >> tech that a lot of tech, absolutely. and also manufacturing and some of oil and gas. in houston specifically. what's happening is other jobs
8:36 am
are not getting filled like retail, education, health care. they want to send their kids to school, they need health care services be but people who normally fill those jobs are getting outpriced out of the market. >> you look at cities hit by the opioid crisis and how it's affecting hiring. what did you find? >> they also can't hire because they can't find people who can pass drug tests. this is amazing. we keep hearing employers tell us one of the top problems they're facing is people are failing drug tests or they come if and fail drug tests or they start working and discover people are addicted to drugs and they're addicted to drugs that they get by their doctors. these are people who have a prescription. it's okay that that i have the job but i can't do the job. we talked to a manufacturer in ohio who said he no longer makes people take a drug test.
8:37 am
he asks them to tell him. are you on crack, heroine, i will manage around it. it's not worth it to him to pay to take >> they're accommodating it. >> absolutely. they're am accommodating it or they hire people who have gone through adekz centers, they're hiring immigrants. >> what do medical professionals think about this? >> i think medical profegles are struggling with the opioid epidemic to treat pain. this is a massive problem. what we're now seeing is that it's actually affecting employers and it's affecting competitiveness of the american companies. >> if they don't allow for the addiction, there would be a dearth of people to fill the jobs? >> yeah.
8:38 am
we've heard people who are not on drugs say they're getting jobs everywhere, wooed all over. they're passing drug tests. that's a competitive asset to have. >> you've got to have the skills. you also have to be able to pass a drug test. the economy is doing well. people can get jobs if they want to get them. they're moving to. they realize there are skills gaps across the country and people are building their skills or moving where they can get them but they're saying it's costing more and they can't find people to pass the drug tests. film come poeter hans zimmer is the man behind the music in more than 100 movies from "dunkirk" to "the lion king."

>> reporter: his hollywood catalog include hits like "gladiator," 14 years of "pirates of the caribbean" series, and the "dark night" batman trilogy. he has had ten oscar nominations, winning in 1995 for disney's "the lion king." all that success and yet every new project makes him anxious. >> the first two or three weeks are just complete agony of, oh, my god, i don't know how to do this anymore, oh, maybe now i should phone the director and tell him to hire somebody else. all the never row sis and self doubt and fear, it's thrall.
