The Senator is correct. I would add that only about 45 percent of new immigrants. on the basis of past immigration experience. would go Into the work force. The remainder would be consumers. As the Senator from Hawaii has pointed out. those who would come in under the third preference would possess particular skills which are needed in the United States. They could fill jobs which today are not filled sufficiently with trained people. By filling these jobs. these people will create more jobs for American workers. In response to the question of the Senator from Florida. I do not believe that we are endangering either the jobs or the livelihoods of American workers.
