For Thursday, Tom Brokaw addresses the concern that America is losing its best and brightest immigrants because of visa restrictions. From 1995 to 2005, a quarter of start-up technology or engineering companies had at least one immigrant founder. How do we keep immigrants, many of whom were educated here, from leaving?

The sad part about the Brokow's report is that he focused on H1B issue and not the real problem which is the green card issue.

Yes, people come on H1B - however, for those immigrants to put down the roots, it has to happen through green cards and not H1B extensions (neither one of which was mentioned in the report). I am not sure if this is a two part series, but it should be.

IV members should write to MSNBC Nightly News to do a more in depth story on immigration problems of the high skilled immigrants.
