Assembly candidate videotapes day laborers in Brewster. New York

“A state Assembly candidate is using a video camera to document contractors who, he says, are illegally hiring undocumented workers.

Greg Ball, who is running against Assemblyman Willis Stephens in next month’s Republican primary, videotaped employers last week picking up day laborers on Brewster’s Main Street. Dozens of men, mostly from Guatemala, stand downtown during the warmer months looking for work. Ball said he would do more filming Saturday.

“I want to create an environment in the village of Brewster where contractors know we consider illegal immigration to be illegal,” Ball said yesterday.”
