THE FIRST OFFICIAL Minuteman Organization of Texas

"In the beginning of a change, the patriot is a brave and scarce man,
hated and scorned.

When the cause succeeds, however, the timid join him...for then it
costs nothing to be a patriot."

Mark Twain

Texas Minutemen

Dear Patriots,

As Americans, you understand the importance of
protecting our nation’s borders. Yet even as our majority increases
in Washington, elected officials continue to ignore this growing
national security issue. Fortunately, American resolve has never
depended on Washington bureaucracy.

This year the Texas Minutemen will be performing our
12th border operation. Starting 2010 the Texas Minutemen will
be patrolling new areas in Texas, more than twice the area patrolled in
Arizona. This will be the biggest Texas Minuteman Border Watch to
record!

Today, your generous donation to the Texas Minutemen will
help make this event and others like it possible. Success on the
border is vital to keeping the pressure on Washington and will only happen if Americans like you pledge your support.

So far, Texas Minutemen Border Watches have produced impressive
results in very little time. Issues being ignored last year like
issuing drivers licenses to illegal immigrants are suddenly being
considered because of the new awareness brought by the Texas
Minutemen. Washington is beginning to listen.

Yet with all the progress we’ve made, it’s important
we not declare victory. There is still so much work to be done. The
year will be crucial in determining the success of our effort. The
fight will be difficult.

We know we can succeed in protecting our border, but
the Texas Minutemen still need your help in making our voice heard.
Your support will ensure a brighter and more secure future for all
Texans.

Sincerely

Shannon (N5KOU) McGauley
