feat_title: To amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to ensure that aliens provided nonimmigrant status under section 101(a)(15)(H)(i)(b) of that Act are counted, for purposes of determining whether the numerical limitation on the provision of such status has been reached, in a manner that is accurate, fair, and takes into account only those aliens who actually commence employment as such a nonimmigrant.
