$50 Million Job Plan Ties INS Push to Deportation
Washington A House subcommittee urged President Ford to seek $50 million more for the INS border patrol and deportation program. The plan aims to add about 2,000 officers and fund a counterfeit proof ID for Mexican nationals, with estimates that beefing up enforcement could create 500,000 to one million jobs now held by illegal aliens. The panel backed penalties for employers who hire illegal workers.
