For the Drug Enforcement Administration. the funding level will be $16.479.000 less than that approved by committee. Again this will result in reductions in personnel and could threaten the State and local drug task forces. Perhaps most severely affected by the failure to enact an appropriation bill will be the Immigration and Naturalization Service. As you know. Senator HOLLINGS and I will offer an amendment to increase the committee recommendation for INS by $85 million. These are emergency funds. They are necessary to deal with the continual tide of illegal aliens. RecenltlV. we were informed by OMB that INS is currently in a deficiency situation. Without an appropriation bill. however.
