Unless something radical happens. we are not going to be able to take care of those positions. We have the American Competitiveness Act. If ever there was a misnamed piece of legislation. it Is the American Competitiveness Act. which the House will be acting on soon. which calls for the importation of an extra 30.000 people in the category of professionals. We are going to lessen the quota in some other areas for immigrants and increase the quota for professionals in order to deal with this problem. 30.000 more in the first year and over a period of 2 or 3 years. 20.000 each year more. Many of them are going to come from Bangalore. India.
