A Minuteman
Goes to Washington "Secure America's Borders
Now!” Petition (PHOENIX, AZ) April 17, 2006 – The Minuteman Civil Defense Corps today announced additional tour cities in five states for the cross country “Secure America’s Borders Now!” petition drive led by Minuteman volunteer Tony Dolz, a naturalized American citizen from Cuba. The tour will feature stops at state offices of United States Senators to deliver the petition copy now in circulation which communicates the Minuteman message for a secure America on behalf of her concerned citizens. A copy of the petition is available online at http://www.MinutemanHQ.com Dolz, himself a legal immigrant to this country, is making his journey from California to Washington, D.C., meeting fellow Minutemen and supporters, and gathering additional petition signatures to deliver to the White House and Congress. Cities added today are the Paducah office of Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell on Tuesday, April 18th, the Nashville, Tennessee office of Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist on Wednesday, April 19th, the Greenville office of South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham on Thursday, April 20th, the Raleigh office of North Carolina Senator Elizabeth Dole on Friday, April 21st and the Roanoke office of Virginia Senator John Warner on Saturday, April 22nd. The Minutemen are reporting an alarming increase in numbers of people illegally crossing along the entire southern border—in some areas the Minuteman sightings are over four times the numbers sighted last October. Dolz invites all those who would like to make their voices heard in Washington on this URGENT and immediate border security catastrophe to meet him at his stops at Senate offices throughout the country, sign the petition, take copies to gather signatures of friends and family, and to write letters to the editor and call into talk radio shows all over America. Dolz has previously held petition drive stops in California, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, Kansas and Missouri. The petition drive is expected to arrive at our nation’s capitol as the U.S. Senate reconvenes April 24th. The petition is available online so that those unable to join the Minuteman tour in person because of responsibilities to work and family can add their names.
