“I think where the challenge is, and I am not sure it is a challenge we cannot overcome, I think where there may be some resistance to committing themselves to is a numerical number. On the other hand, that is what H-1 visas are all about, increasing the numbers. I am just saying that as we increase those numbers, we should increase the number of a goal that we are willing to commit to; that we will educate, and we will train and we will hire from rural America and from urban cities. The same numerical goal that these companies are requesting the government come and double. That is all I am saying. It obviously should be something that is workable and that they are willing to do, because it is an investment in America. It is an investment in our communities. It is an economic stimulus that a young person in Wilson County or in Edgecombe County or in the gentlewoman's Compton community knows that there is a company that is interested in me.”
