my second question deals with Section 17 that requires the Director, 24 months after the date of enactment of this act, to submit a report to Congress reviewing this act to ensure that awards under the act are made to individuals and institutions that are in compliance with the Immigration and Nationality Act. I assume this is a simple reporting requirement similar to other reports to Congress by the NSF and that it is not meant to require the Director to enforce our Nation's immigration laws?
