LOS ANGELES (AP) -
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "At least one of the men arrested had a counterfeit green card, officials said. But the agency also said an audit of hiring records found that more than 40 percent of those on the company's payroll may not have been authorized to work in the United States.
"We are continuing to investigate," agency spokeswoman Virginia Kice said.
The arrests were part of a wider effort targeting businesses that provide workers for such sensitive locations as airports and military bases. The agency says unauthorized workers could be exploited by terrorists, smugglers, or traffickers.
Fort Irwin is home to the National Training Center for Army brigade combat teams, the agency said."
