Speech #1140010052

I just cannot believe the opposition. As I stated earlier. the majority in the last Congressand that happened to be a bipartisan majoritypushed for changes to the HlB program but voted against every single amendment I offered to ensure that U.S. workers were given priority. Now there is a lot of fanfare and a lot of talk about a highskilled bill that has been reintroduced in the Senate that would increase the annual number of HlB visas. The sponsors of the bill claim it will "boost our competitiveness in the global economy." This bill only makes the problems worse. It doesnt plug the loopholes.
