“A group born of a controversial anti-illegal-immigration ordinance proposed in Carpentersville vows to keep the issue on the front burner despite what it says are opponents’ efforts to duck the debate.

“We’re not here for just cutting ribbons and kissing babies,” said Village Trustee Judy Sigwalt, a co-sponsor of the ordinance and co-founder of the Fox Valley Citizens for Legal Immigration. At a news conference Wednesday in the VFW Hall in West Dundee, she called on Carpentersville Mayor Bill Sarto and Trustee Linda Ramirez Sliwinski to discuss the immigration issue.”
