Nixon proposes new Drug Enforcement Administration to unify drug control
President Nixon asked Congress to establish a new Drug Enforcement Administration under Attorney General Richard Kleindienst. The plan would abolish the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs and transfer drug investigations from the Bureau of Customs and all enforcement functions from the Office of Drug Abuse Law Enforcement and the Office of National Narcotics Intelligence. The White House Special Action Office for Drug Abuse Prevention would remain. The proposal also moves port of entry duties from the Immigration and Naturalization Service to the Treasury Department and keeps Customs inspecting goods while Immigration handles people.
