We handed out fliers on Saturday for a press conference on Monday, January 30 with Congressman Tom Tancredo who was coming through Georgia with his “Secure America Now Tour.”  Sadly, the Congressman’s mother is critically ill and is not expected to live.  Most probably he will not be able to come, but Bay Buchanan will be here to speak on behalf of the issue.

We will host the press conference on January 30 at the State Capitol – Room 450 at 10:00 a.m.  There will be an important vote coming up in the U. S. Senate soon that will address this issue.  Please join us on Monday, January 30 to show your support for Securing America’s Borders Now!
