	Mafia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Mafia's power in the United States peaked in the mid-20th century, until a series of FBI investigations in the 1970s and 1980s somewhat curtailed the Mafia's influence.
		From this, the Mafia began to spread its roots among the landowners and politicians of Sicily.
		In the mid-20th century, the Mafia was reputed to have infiltrated many labor unions in the United States, notably the Teamsters, whose president Jimmy Hoffa disappeared and is widely rumored to have been killed by the Mafia.

		Mafia power peaked in the United States in the mid-20th century, until a series of FBI investigations in the 1970s and 1980s somewhat curtailed the Mafia's influence.
		The Mafia began a steep decline in the late-1970s and early 1980s due in part to laws such as the RICO Act, which made it a crime to belong to an organization that performed illegal acts, and to programs such as the witness protection program.
		Today the Mafia is still the dominant organized crime group in the United States but its power and influence continues to decline due to aggressive FBI investigations, mob informants, violation of mob rules, family infighting, dwindling membership, and death or imprisonment of its top leaders.

		This role as protector extended to the early Twentieth Century mafias in the United States, where newly arrived Italian immigrants often spoke no English and settled in the same districts of American cities.
		Throughout the 20th century, attempts by governments to eliminate their activities have been made difficult by the sophisticated, hands-off nature of their operations, bribery and flmail of law enforcement officers, judges, and politicians, and a tradition (enforced through violence) of not providing information to police to reduce one's own punishment.
