Hi, I am wondering what companies we could SUPPORT in their efforts to avoid hiring illegals. has anyone already made some choices like that when avoiding the SELL-OUT companies?

Tim Binh, Thelmahopkins and I were thinking of sending out mailers to companies, with the good news that they would get free promotion on the Boycott website if they are meeting certain criteria.

I think that positive message to the "good guys" would be most effective.

But how do we know they are really not hiring illegals? What kind of criteria could we ask them to meet so we could be sure?

I was reading today that TRUE VALUE hardware is having a difficult time competing with Loew's and Home Depot. They were talking about the ways they try to surpass - ie more personalized service to keep loyal customers.

Perhaps we could offer them free promotion as THE store to patronize for the anti-illegal, anti-outsourcing crowd.

Of course, it may be too politically incorrect for them to be known as the PATRIOT store, which the enemy would quickly turn into "the racist" store.

Any ideas out there?
