Not outsourced offshore. The contracts are with foreign companies doing work inside the U.S. I came across the figure quite recently, either in Time Magazine or in Human Events.

***So,this is interesting. The point of contention wouldn't be about companies that are working or housed outside the US supplying goods (which is the way I normally think about foreign companies) but foreign companies working *inside* the US.

Will have to try to find the reference.

On edit- maybe something along these lines? http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2006-02-22-ports-foreign-investment_x.htm

I know in Texas the state is planning a major toll road to run north and south which will be operated by Cinta. You tell ME why a Texas highway should be controlled and managed by a foreign company.
