There are various categories in the bill for highly skilled workers who are able to become legal permanent residents without being subject to any numerical cap. I have supported those provisions. I am not suggesting we put a cap on those provisions. These are highly skilled 152. Pt. 7 9549 workers. in many cases people involved in science and engineering and other skills that are important to our economy. Of course. there is provided in the bill an additional estimated 141.000 visas which have been recaptured from the last 5 years because they were unused. We are not doing anything to affect that. That is fine.
