It would certainly add to INS ability to stop such smuggling if all law enforcement officers could detain and arrest such perpetrators. We have encouraged such cooperation against drug smuggling and it has been effective. I believe the problem of alien smugglers has grown to such proportions along our shores that stiffer laws are necessary. Mr. President. these changes in current law do not represent major alteration of our immigration laws. However. they will go far in providing the INS and law enforcement officials with a stronger hand against alien smuggling. We must have the ability to protect our own borders.
