COSTA MESA – At the height of the immigration debate about four years ago, Mayor Allan Mansoor propelled himself and his city into the front lines with his tough stance against illegal immigration.

He garnered national headlines when he aligned himself with the Minuteman Project, targeted day laborers and pushed for a program that trained officers to perform some duties of federal immigration agents.

That's why some question why the city of Costa Mesa – noted for leading the way in the county's fight against illegal immigration – isn't using a 6-year-old federal program called E-Verify, which is intended to weed out employees who are working in the country illegally.
