"Post commander says rejecting group wasn't difficult"
By Andre Salles Staff Writer
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "YORKVILLE — A group dedicated to enforcing immigration laws will not meet in Yorkville next week.
The Illinois chapter of the Minutemen, an organization founded in 2004 to help curtail illegal immigration into the United States, planned to hold its third Fox Valley area organizational meeting Wednesday at the Yorkville American Legion.
According to members of the group, the goal of the meetings has been to determine local interest in immigration issues, and to craft an agenda for a Fox Valley Minutemen organization.
But following the controversies that have surrounded previous meetings of the group, Yorkville Legion Post Commander Gary Bullock has decided to deny them the use of his hall.
Bullock, in a written statement, noted that the decision to deny the request was "not a difficult one to make."
"Post 489's concern is goodwill and mutual helpfulness to our community," he wrote. document.write("") "I cannot see one positive benefit for the community or our post by having the Minutemen come to the Yorkville Legion Post."
This decision comes mere days after the Oswego American Legion refused a similar request from the group. Officials from the Oswego Legion would not confirm the reasons for canceling the meeting.
"I am disappointed (that the meeting was cancelled)," said Rosanna Pulido, co-founder of the Illinois Minutemen. "But I am more disappointed in the American Legion."
Pulido noted that the first resolution to come out of the 2005 American Legion National Convention in August was a call for action on the illegal immigration issue."
