The only bill that is out there is last years fatally flawed bill. Why cant we have this opportunity to review the new bill? I have argued we should move dramatically in the way that Canada moved to create a meritbased system for immigration. based on skills and abilities. which countries such as Canada or the United States would deem helpful to their nation. If we have 100 people who want to come to our country. and we cannot accept 100. we can only accept 50. why wouldnt we set up a system that asks them what skills and attributes they have that might be beneficial to our countrywhich would allow them to most flourish and benefit from the American experience? Why wouldnt we ask that and give preference to those who would come here?
