The program would sunset after 3 years. and we would have an opportunity to take a good look at that program at the end of that period of time. hopefully have better records by then and hopefully be better aware of what the needs are after that period of time. I mentioned that there are about 815.000 hightech workers in this country in California alone. So this is really a huge new immigration program over 5 years. Nobody should think to the contrary. It will let in over 600.000 foreign nationals. onehalf of whom. by our own past statistics. will remain in this country as legal aliens able to work in this country. In other words. they will have green cards. and they will continue to go from temporary worker to permanent worker. thereby taking up a job which an American young person could occupy. Now. this troubles me. It really troubles me.
