The situation there is expanding. They need to rebuild Iraq. They need to have a better economy. And by encouraging the best and the brightest to come to this country. we are doing a disservice. We should not be encouraging the Iraqi translators to abandon their country. to leave their country. We should be promoting their staying in Iraq. If we have jobs programs. I suggest that first. with the mandatory language that exists in this amendment. that we focus on jobs for U.S. citizens. Refugees get food stamps. SSI and Medicaid. That is often more than U.S. citizens get.
