We have a simple choice before us. I think it is very important that people not be confused. Senator SPECTER. along with a lot of other cosponsors. has offered an amendment to raise the number of business sponsored visas by 30.000. and to increase the number of people allowed into the country by a corresponding number. It is a simple. straightforward amendment that says that we need more business sponsored visas. The Senator from North Carolina has offered an amendment to raise business related visas by 37.200 but he would take that number away from other categories. in this case. denying people the opportunity to unify their families. Those who want more business sponsored visas in my opinion should support the Specter amendment and reject the Helms amendment because the Helms amendment increases business sponsored visas but does it at the expense of family unification.
