Madam President. we must develop a visa system that is not only fair but also good for America. That is why tonight. I voted against an amendment that would have raised the cap on HlB visas without providing many of the safeguards that are necessary to the H1B visa system. While we must maintain our competitive edge in the world by bringing in the worlds most talented and keen minds. we also must take steps to ensure that the program is not abused and does not displace U.S. workers. I look forward to working with my colleagues in the coming months to achieve comprehensive HlB reform that will improve the program in a balanced and fair manner.
