Minutemen Will Stay After Closing of VA Day Laborer Center
Everyone,
Again, here's what's happening in Northern VA with illegals. It will soon be happening everywhere.
Herndon, Va. -- Although the Herndon chapter of the U.S. border protection group Minutemen was slated to deactivate after the citizens of this small Northern Virginian town overwhelmingly decided to close a day labor center used as a hiring hall for illegals, the chapter now has decided to stay active in response to challenges by illegal alien advocates to defy a banning of illegals soliciting for work on the town's streets.
In an announcement, the National Day Labor Organization Network says it is coming to Herndon to support day laborers who will continue to gather in groups looking for work, despite of city ordinances against such activity.
"We were prepared to disband and move onto the political side of the debate," George Taplin, president of the Herndon chapter of Minutemen, said in a statement. "However, because outside organizations are trying to assert their influence on the citizens of Herndon, we are obliged to postpone our deactivation indefinitely."
Minutemen uncovered may violations
During the past two years, the Herndon Minutemen focused their efforts on the employers of illegal aliens, who exploited cheap illegal labor in violation of numerous federal and state laws and local ordinances.
Starting at the original day labor pickup site at the Elden Street 7-11 convenience store in Herndon, and continuing at the Herndon Official Worker site set up by the now-deposed Town Council in December 2006, the Minutemen observed, recorded, and photographed the many employers who would pick up day laborers for their business activities.
This information would then be reported to the appropriate local, state, or federal agencies for further investigation and penalties. Contrary to the statements by editorial writers and pro-illegal advocacy groups like Casa of Maryland, the Minutemen never once harassed a day laborer or followed any laborers to their homes.
Still, the Minutemen uncovered many employer violations including lack of licenses, non-payment of state and federal taxes, failure to file Social Security and Medicare information and tax withholding, lack of liability insurance, and failure to contribute to Workman’s Compensation funds.
Minuteman actions reversed the ratio of hiring from primarily business hiring to mostly residential. The long parade of construction, painting, and landscape business trucks picking up illegal day laborers has been replaced by mostly homeowner vehicles.
Many of these business employers admitted that it was fear of exposure and discovery of their violations that drove them away from using the Herndon day labor site.

Nothing is going to happen and nothing is going to be fixed until the Federal Government decides that illegal immigration is over. That is a fact. There are to many money hungry politicans in our state to stop a darn thing. My state is one.
The governement needs to stop it first and then it will trickle down to the states. Until then nothing is changing. Illegal Immigrants across the country still to this day think that they are here on a free ride for eternity. You can tell just by the way the are acting.<div>''Life's tough......it's even tougher if you're stupid.''

Many of the companies have found ways so that they don't pick up day laborers. They just arrange to meet illegals that they have worked with in other places now. Hiring is done by word of mouth.
