Speech #1090138838

It should not be openended. as the current bill pending on the Senate floor provides. We are saying this limit should be 650.000. Now. why did we choose that? Because that is what the Congressional Research Service says they estimated would actually be happening under Chairman SPECTERS proposed mark to the Judiciary Committee when they started. To do something other than what we are proposing in this amendment is to leave it totally unknown as to how many people we are going to have coming in under this employmentbased legal permanent residency program. how many green cards we are going to be giving out. It could be 500.000. It could be 1 million.
