It's a step in exactly the wrong direction. This essentially makes it impossible for anyone from India or other countries with high numbers of H1-B visa holders who have applied for green cards to ever get a green card. If someone has worked in the US for six years, we should just give them a green card right away. We shouldn't kick them out of the country just because they happen to have been born in India.
