I don't think the Minutemen are having an impact on the site. Nationally I think they're having an impact on people's opinions about immigration, but I don't think they're having an impact locally.
It's mostly the weather, but there may be other issues. It's been around a little longer, there is more advertising through word of mouth.
Hiring is pretty good in the area right now. But we're likely to see a 30 to 40, even 50 percent increase in the hires of workers come the spring and summer.
It's very much noticeable at the site ? the worker's involvement. They're voicing their opinions all the time and that's exactly what we want.

We've had people from all over come and get jobs ... we've had students come and find jobs on spring break. It's definitely open to anyone who wants to get a job, just in our case most of the people who attend and participate in the center are Hispanic migrants.

Everything is pretty much in place. There are only a few last-minute details to work out. But we are ready for prime time on Wednesday.
