How absurd it is that hundreds of thousands of lowincome kids no longer are able to go to college because they cannot afford it. and then we say: Well. we dont have the professionals we need in this country. we have to bring them in from abroad. So the longterm solution is making sure college is affordable and improving our public schools so our people can fill these jobs. As this debate on this bill continues. I am going to do everything I can to make sure any immigration reform legislation passed by this body has the result of lifting wages up and expanding the middle class. rather than doing the contrary. Mr. President. thank you very much.
