This bill is a small step in that direction. Mr. President. this legislation simply relaxes some immigration criteria and procedures for admitting as immigrants scientists from the former Soviet Union. The bill limits to 750 the number of scientists covered. but this should be sufficient to accommodate the initial numbers in need. Again. this bill simply expedites their admission as immigrants under the provisions of The Immigration Act of 1990 and existing laws. All the scientists covered by this bill would be eligible under the laws highskilled provisions. It just temporarily puts a small number of Soviet scientists to the head of the line.
