If 10 times as many people showed up for that benefit as we expected. all of them get that benefitAmerican citizens. veterans. That is an entitlement. In this legislation. we basically create an entitlement to let people who are noncitizens of the country decide how many are going to come in. without this Nation making those decisions. Canada has a point system. They limit immigration. and they review it based on what their needs are. The more the immigrant has qualities and education and training that meet what they need. the better chance they have of entering. If you dont have qualifications and abilities that are relevant to Canadas needs. you dont get in. Our bill does none of that. I urge my colleagues to be more focused on the actual wording of the legislation. I thank the Senator from West Virginia for showing leadership and recognizing that we need to do better in this legislation on immigration. I suspect that the Senator from West Virginia might talk about Mothers Day. I have had the honor to be in the 152.
