OF THE UNITED STATES





Prospects Dim For Effectively

Enforcing Immigration Laws





The inability of the Immigration and Natural-
ization Service to effectively enforce immi-
gration laws is underscored by the estimated
5 million illegal aliens living in the United
States. The actions necessary to enforce im-
migration laws are known--sealing the borders,
adopting employer sanctions, and issuing wor-
ker identification cards. These steps are, at
best, highly controversial.

A Select Commission on Immigration and Re-
fugee Policy has been established to evaluate
the immigration situation and to recommend
improvements. Its recommendations and any
resulting congressional action will not be ef-
fective unless the Government improves its
ability to enforce immigration laws. Improve-
ment is uncertain, however, because of many
obstacles.
