If you want to then say it can grow from 100.000 to 200.000 per year. fine. But lets not also say that anyone who has worked here in any of the 3 preceding years can come in on top of that because that is when your numbers get totally out of control. The amendment is aimed at ensuring the bill does what I believe a majority of Senators believe it does. that is. it would allow the issuance of up to 200.000 Y2 visas each year for these seasonal workers. I think that is something which I can support as a matter of policy. Again. my amendment merely brings the underlying language of the bill into line with what I believe most Senators think the bill now provides. that is. keeps it under 200.000.
