Last week the Illegal Immigration Boycott Coalition passed the 100 supporting organizations mark and achieved over 12,000 petition signatures while the Dow Jones Newswires announced a collapse in SABMiller's stock value and beer sales in America, MMD Newswire posted on September 25
The boycott by immigration enforcement groups was brought on by September 1 reports in the Chicago Tribune that Miller Brewing Company gave $30,000 to pro amnesty organizations that support illegal immigration. Coalition members also determined that Miller gives large sums of money to race based organizations like La Raza (Translation: The Race)
According to the Dow Jones News Newswires (9/22/2006) SABMiller (SAB.JO) stock had fallen to 999p. This is a 6.02percent drop since the launch of the Miller Boycott on September 5 when the stock was trading at 1063p. Dow Jones reports that Miller Beer's sales are down in America more than other major companies.
Since the launch of the boycott, coalition representatives have been on over 25 talk radio programs and covered in several major media markets spreading word of the boycott. Over 12,000 people have signed the petition calling on the Executive Branch to enforce existing laws aimed at companies that hire, aid, and abet illegal aliens. Almost 1 million hits have been recorded on the boycott website at www.MillerBoycott.com
Coalition directors William Gheen of ALIPAC and Jason Mrochek of FIRE Coalition are announcing phase 2 of the boycott plan today!
"We are sending word to our extensive network today for citizen activists to begin spreading the word about the boycott using our online resources, such as bumper stickers, fliers, and e-mail templates." says William Gheen. "We also hope to expand our list of supporting organizations up towards 150 groups!"
Jason Mrochek is gives a glimpse of Phase 3 which will include citizens protesting outside of Miller Brewing Company production plants and offices. "Shortly after the November elections, we plan to launch protests outside of their facilities coast to coast." says Mrochek. "It is important for the communities close to these plants and the workers in these plants to know about our boycott that Miller Brewing supports illegal immigration."
