I ask unanimous consent that the pending amendlment be set aside. and I call up amendment No. 1374. Mr. President. this bill does a laudable job in setting up a new meritbased system for the future. That is the right thing to do for our country. but the bill misses the mark. Our country needs an immigration system that recognizes we want to attract the best and the brightest from around the world. We have been doing that for many years because we recognize that people who are smart. who are talented. when they come to this country they actually create jobs in this country. They create opportunities for other people in this country.
