We are not moving to a meritbased system any time soon. Actually. it is going to be 8 years out before it really kicks in. I dont know what will happen in 8 years. I have grown. in my 10 years in this Senate. to be somewhat worried about what we are likely to do when that happens. 1 salute my colleagues for making a decision that appears to shift us to a more healthy view of immigration that will be more likely to serve our national interest. But I am disappointed that it is not going to really take effect for 8 years. That is so long.
