I think it is important for us to understand that this applies only to those individuals coming in the employmentbased classification and under the diversity program who will be permanent residents here. These are people who are coming to live in this country and to stay. There are a variety of classifications under which nonimmigrant visas can be issued to people for business reasons. We have temporary visitors for business. registered nurses. alien in a special occupation. representatives of foreign information media. intracompany transferees of an international firm. aliens with extraordinary ability in sciences. art. education. business or athletics. artist or entertainer in a reciprocal exchange program. artist or entertainer in a culturally unique program. and a variety of other nonimmigrant visa categories that allow people to come in for a limited period of time for a particular purpose. We are focusing here on people that are going to be coming to this country to stay. Furthermore. with respect to the employmentbased classification. we are talking about people who start a process that in most cases is going to take a couple of years before they are ever going to get the visa to get in. I believe that from the outset of that process. if they are on notice that they need to be proficient in English. they have an opportunity before they come here to develop that skill so they can come here and become part of our society and make a contribution from the very start.
