High Drama Over Highly Skilled Workers
Via Businessweek

“After failing over the summer to pass legislation that would overhaul
the rules for all kinds of immigrants, Congress is gearing up to take
on the narrower task of reforming immigration laws for highly skilled
workers. The effort is less politically charged than comprehensive
reform since it sets aside the contentious issue of what to do with the
estimated 12 million illegal immigrants
(BusinessWeek.com, 8/22/07) already in the U.S., and it appears likely
that some legislation will be passed. But there is opposition, and the
nature and degree of reform for the highly skilled remains unclear.”
