Summary	In a yearlong investigation, the San Francisco Chronicle analyzed thousands of Immigration and Naturalization Services cases to find that employers nationwide are flouting laws establishing fines and prison terms for those who knowingly hire illegal immigrants. More fines are being collected in cities in Oregon, Ohio, Nebraska and Arkansas than in San Francisco and while the INS pledges to double numbers of workplace inspectors nationwide, most of the money will go to bolster the Border Patrol rather than crackdown on workplace fines.
