New York Times, Mar 10, 1983At the Justice Department, Mr. Giuliani has been highly visible, particularly as one of the chief strategists of the Reagan Administration's stepped-up effort to combat narcotics trafficking. He was instrumental in devising the Reagan budget request of $130 million granted by Congress last year to finance 12 new investigative drug task forces across the nation.
Mr. Giuliani also shaped the plan in which the Federal Bureau of Investigation was given jurisdiction for the first time, with the Drug Enforcement Administration, over narcotics.
He was active in promoting the Administration's immigration bill last year, which sought to grant amnesty to Illegal aliens already in the country and to impose sanctions on employers for hiring illegal aliens in the future.
Mr. Giuliani went to Haiti last year and came back to testify in a Miami trial that the Government's action in incarcerating nearly 2,000 Haitians was justified on the ground that the Haitians were fleeing poverty, not political repression.

He [Giuliani] was active in promoting the [Reagan] Administration's immigration bill last year, which sought to grant amnesty to Illegal aliens already in the country and to impose sanctions on employers for hiring illegal aliens in the future.
So he's still arguing for amnesty like before...but when it came down to sanctions on employers, he reneged on this by suing the federal government when they passed legislation to increase communication between employers and the INS. From the original Frontpage article up-top:
Rudolph Giuliani sued all the way up to the Supreme Court to defend the citys sanctuary policy against a 1996 federal law decreeing that cities could not prohibit their employees from cooperating with the INS.
