it is very satisfying to go around to the different city councils and meet other Americans. These council members...not all not all...but most of them see what is happening and are happy to see that there is something they can do. It really really helps if you have a good size group and rally before the meeting because that reminds them that they have lots of support. Murrieta was considering it and then got cold feet when staff members urged them NOT to adopt E verify. They were worried about being sued. When we showed up and spoke (you are usually given 2-3 minutes to talk each, they lost their fears and voted unanimously for E Verify. I was surprised because 2 members seemed kinda weak....anyway we can help, especially Tedw, it is his baby. He can tell you how to organize a press conference too.
