I believe. should bring to our attention. Mr. President. it matters to U.S. hightech companies that want more visas. But it also matters to workers who are laid off by unscrupulous employers and replaced by foreign workers. It matters to middleaged computer programmers who work hard to keep up their skills but are laid off in favor of younger workers who will work longer hours at cheaper pay. And it matters to working families who would love to get one of these jobs and make $30.000. $40.000. or $50.000 a year. Many of the workers who come in under the HlB visa program are obviously talented. We should put out the welcome mat for accomplished people who have unique skills to improve our economy and create jobs. but accomplished workers represent only a fraction of the foreign workers who come to the United States under the H1B program. I have indicated that more than 75.000 would be about 5 percent. We might even stretch it to up to 20 percent.
