Mr. President. I recently urged increased funding for the Immigration and Naturalization Service so that we might better deal with the problems posed by the presence of several million illegal aliens in this country. In New York alone we have more than one million illegal aliens adding to our welfare load. taking jobs that might otherwise go to New Yorkers and providing an atmosphere conducive to increased crime levels. I have been told that our Government is incapable of dealing with this problem because we do not have the manpowerbecause the relevant agencies need more money. Well. I must say today that this excuse will no longer wash. If the Department of Labor and the Immigration and Naturalization Service have the time and manpower to waste harassing the YankeFs. the Mets and the Buffalo Sabres then perhaps they already have too much manpower and too much money. This is just one more example of a runaway bureaucracy involving itself in matters it ought to leave one while ignoring more serious problems with which it should be concerned. Mr.
