Chris Simcox and the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps (MCDC) are tired of the endless handwringing about "politically correct" so-called reforms that amount to nothing more than amnesty, token gestures, pompous proclamations and more laws that won't be enforced. Once again the MCDC is taking action, doing the job our federal government refuses to do.  Americans who understand the urgency of the border crisis are swamping MCDC phone lines and our website asking: What can I do to help NOW? The answer: we need people and we need money.

The Minuteman Border Fence Project has begun! A new day is dawning in America.

PALOMINAS, Arizona - Over 350 volunteers gathered Saturday morning over Memorial Day weekend at John Ladd's ranch, as they marked the Ground Breaking of the Minuteman Border Fence effort. The morning was dedicated to speeches from right thinking politicians and Minuteman leaders, celebrating the generous donations the Minutemen group has been receiving. Minuteman patriot and U.S. military veteran, Jim Campbell of Arizona, has made the first six-figure contribution to this citizen initiative!! Mr. Campbell stated publicly, "With my $100,000.00 donation, I am challenging patriotic Americans to donate meaningfully to the Minuteman Border Fence Project. Collectively, we have the financial strength to fund this project entirely. If we do so, we will never have to explain to future generations how we let our national security be placed at risk when we could have acted..."

Minutemen are donating time, equipment, land and personal funds knowing that they can successfully build a fence of over 2000 miles in length, one foot at a time. They are doing the hard work to secure America today and into the future.   MCDC will continue to man our posts at the border and watch and report as the Minuteman Border Fence is built.  There is no one operation alone that will secure the borders. But the Minutemen refuse to ignore the problem and do nothing. They are taking the steps to prove that fences and Border Patrols DO make a difference. 

A Minuteman Border Fence will help protect all of America 365 days a year.

The Minuteman volunteers of MCDC continue to prove their character and patriotism by upholding the highest ethical standards, and by adhering to rigorous Standard Operating Procedures that protect every human person at our chaotic and violent borders.  MCDC volunteers have shown that the border can be secured, while still demonstrating compassion for the humanity of those from around the world who have felt compelled to leave their homes and break our laws in desperate pursuit of a better life.

Chris Simcox, founder of the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps, began building the Border Fence at the exact site where his first patrols began in November 2002. During this past Memorial day weekend, Minuteman border watch volunteers began putting up new fencing on a ranch along the Arizona border with Mexico. Ranchers Jack and John Ladd are hopeful that the fencing will protect their ranch from "invasion by the human smugglers, rapists, and drug runners and their victims that swarm through here nightly." The Ladds' ranch stretches across more than 10 miles of the border with Mexico. They have struggled for years with those who cut their fence - or just drive over it - to cross their land and enter the United States illegally.

MCDC plans to continue to install fencing, including a combination of barbed wire, razor wire and in some spots, steel rail barriers along the bulk of the Ladds' ranch property in the coming weeks. We hope it will prompt the federal government to do the same along the entire Arizona border. But we can't build the fence without the generous donations of time and money by patriotic Americans who recognize the danger that our porous borders present.

American citizens have caught the spirit of Chris Simcox and the Minuteman Movement, and are making this THEIR OWN Minuteman Border Fence.

The Minuteman Border Fence is a gift to America, and it is urgently needed to protect our security and our sovereignty.  Donations are being collected in a segregated non-profit account, exclusively to build the Minuteman Border Fence. With the help of concerned American citizens who take the financial responsibility, we will secure our borders NOW!
