Lets develop the kinds of skills employers need so that we wont need to have this continue after the expiration of this particular proposal. Lets try an American first. And if we are not going to do that. lets just ensure that an American who is in that job and working. as the record demonstrates today. isnt going to get laid off and replaced by a foreign worker who then is going to work longer hours and be threatened day after day that if they complain at all. they are going to have their green card taken and they will be shipped overseas. That is the case. in many instances. Madam President.
