Minuteman Project Announces Changes
SOURCE:
Steve Huff - KOLD News 13
(Tombstone, Az.) The Minuteman Project on the Arizona border is expanding. Project leader Chris Simcox announced the changes today amid rumors that he and co-founder Jim Gilchrist are going not seeing eye to eye on the direction of the project.
Simcox says he will stay here in Arizona and continue to survey the border; expanding the effort possibly as far as Texas and California. Gilcrist on the other hand will spearhead a new action to discourage the employment of illegal immigrants. That program will be based in California and will also be referred to as part of the Minuteman project. Both Simcox and Gilcrist agree however, they are still working together to fight illegal immigration.
Volunteer for the Minuteman Project are expected to remain on the border and to watch for illegal immigrants until April 30th.

Massachusetts resident Bob Casimiro, one of some 1,600 volunteers taking part in this month's Minuteman Project in Arizona, says the illegal alien problem is hardly isolated to the southwestern U.S. border states. In fact, he notes, "Even in my town of Weymouth it's becoming more and more of a problem, and we know that they're getting up to Massachusetts by coming across the [Mexican] border.
So I thought it necessary to come down here where the source is and be involved with this -- take some direct action." Casimiro has been involved in the immigration reform movement in his home state for nearly four years, and he currently serves as executive director of the Massachusetts Coalition for Immigration Reform.
He says even his New England state has not been spared the effects of unlawful immigration. For instance, Casimiro says the authorities arrested a group of illegal aliens in a town called New Ipswich, New Hampshire, about six months ago. "Of course, New Hampshire has a border with Canada," the New Englander points out, "but where did these illegal aliens come from? They were from Ecuador. So it's amazing that it's all coming from the southern border." Committed to advocating immigration reform, Casimiro says he intends to spend the entire month of April working the night shift in the Arizona desert with the Minuteman Project.

Feds' border action not nearly enough
The Department of Homeland Security has announced it will send more than 500 additional Border Patrol agents to Arizona this year to help stop the endless flow of illegal aliens from entering the United States. Most of these additional agents are, however, simply being transferred from other border states, at a time when we should be hiring as many new agents as possible.
