This program expects temporary workers to return permanently to their home countries after their period of work in the United States has expired. And there should be financial incentives for them to do so. I will work with foreign governments on a plan to give temporary workers credit, when they enter their own nation's retirement system, for the time they have worked in America.

I also support making it easier for temporary workers to contribute a portion of their earnings to tax-preferred savings accounts, money they can collect as they return to their native countries.

Figure that one out.

Under the Senate proposal I linked you to, it has all the details. There is on bright spot on the horizon, the House bill is surprisingly sponsored by Tancredo. After a quick view of the text of this version, all I can say is "WOW", he seems to cover all the bases and then some, including placing the military at the border.
