I thank my colleagues for working with me to achieve that end. Still. while many employers in this country are doing a great deal to educate and train technology workers. the clamor for a large increase in nonU.S. citizens to fill highskill jobs here seems clearly to point to a lack both in those efforts and in our public job training system. Therefore I believe we also need to be sure that those who will benefit the most from any adjustment in immigrant policy will help us to address the underlying problem. We in the Senate cannot originate a revenue measure to fund the new training we authorize here. But it would be a serious mistake to enact a final bill that does not call on employers who have pushed for it and will benefit substantially from it to help pay for the new training authorized in the bill.
