Table		           OPM's 2003 report reveals that among the 17 federal executive departments, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) was the clear winner in the Federal competition to hire as many Hispanics as possible.

          According to the OPM data, in FY 2001 the U.S. DOJ hired 123% more Hispanics than their proportion in the civilian labor force.

          The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (Tommy Thompson's department) finished in a miserable last place for quotas:  HHS underhired Hispanics by 44% vs. Hispanics proportion in the civilian labor force.

          All told, Hispanics fared OK in the quota competition among the 17 Federal executive departments:  7 departments overhired Hispanics by 7% to 123% over their racial quota.
