“The Only Candidate with Leadership Track Record on Immigration Reform and Border Security”
Aliso Viejo, CA – Minuteman Project Founder and President Jim Gilchrist, the nation’s leading grassroots activist on the issue of immigration reform and border security, announced his endorsement for Tim Scott for US Congress in the First Congressional District of South Carolina. Gilchrist cited Scott’s leadership role in Co-Sponsoring Arizona type legislation in South Carolina as well as his strong stand on securing our borders, denying illegals any form of amnesty, and cracking down on taxpayer funded benefits that attract illegals to the United States. Polls show that immigration reform and border security remains one of the top issues facing voters of the state of South Carolina in the upcoming June 8 Republican Primary.
Gilchrist stated, “Tim Scott has a long track record of fighting on behalf of taxpayers throughout his career. You can trust him when he says he will demand the Federal Government to enforce our laws and our borders. Scott truly has a committed stand on the issues of immigration reform and border security. Tim Scott is just the guy South Carolina needs to end the chaos of illegal immigration.”
Gilchrist further said, “For too long law abiding Americans have grown tired of watching the political establishment lack the will to enforce our nation’s laws when it comes to border security and immigration policy. South Carolina needs someone in DC that will fight on behalf of taxpayers to end the influx of illegal aliens in America and that is why I wholeheartedly endorse Tim Scott for US Congress.”
Jim Gilchrist founded the multi-ethnic Minuteman Project on Oct. 1, 2004, after years of frustrated efforts trying to get a neglectful U.S. government to simply enforce existing immigration laws. He has been interviewed over 4000 times on the issues of illegal immigration and border security, is the author of an essay in the Georgetown Immigration Law Journal, as well as author of “Minuteman: The Battle to Secure America’s Borders” co-written with New York Times Best Selling Author Dr. Jerome Corsi.
