The fact that American workers lack the training skills to compete for these good jobs is an incident of our educational system. Clearly. we need to do more to find a longterm solution to this festering problem. And this bill gives three years to address this failure. I have long insisted that any legislation increasing these visas should substantially invest in improved job training for U.S. workers and better education for U.S. students. We must give the U.S. workers the skills they need to qualify for these jobs. It makes no sense to throw in the towel by increasing quotaseven temporarilywithout also investing in our own labor force.
