If you put on the table that you are going to spend $16 billion more. that you dont have. the odds are the Congress is going to spend $16 billion once it gets authorized to do so. At this time I understand we are not taking amendments. but if we were in the process of taking amendments. I would offer an amendment to do something substantive in the area of competition and making our country more viable. and that would be to lift the cap on the H1B visa program from 65.000 to 150.000. A very simple action. It would bring in a large group of people who would be constructive citizens with science and technology backgrounds that we need.
