Obama dice a TV hispana que confia en lograr la reforma migratoria El presidente Barack Obam a se mostn5 este midrcoles "muy confiado” de que un grupo bipamdi.sta de ocho senadores presentard un proyecto de ley de reform a migratoria cuando el Congreso culmine su receso primaveral de dos sem anas, aun pese a discrepanciaa entre la patronal y sindicatos sobre los salarios de trabajadores poco capacitados. "Soy muy optim ista de que, cuando ellos regresen (del receso) a com ienzos de abril, veremos un proyecto de ley listo para el proceso legislativo”, dijo durante una entrevista concedida a Telemundo. "Hay aun algunas areas com o el flujo fuhiro de trabajadores extranjeros, y los sindicatos y la patronal puede que no siempre coincidan exactamente en edmo hacerlo. Pero este es un tema que se puede resolver", indied el mandatario refiridndose a las discrepancias de ultima bora que surgieron el viem es cuando los ocho senadores estaban cerca de lograr un acuerdo para dedicarse a redactar el proyecto de ley durante el receso primav­ eral de dos semanas. La Cam ara de Com ercio y la central sindical A FL -CIO han alcanzado acuerdos importantes en un programa nuevo

de visas que traena a Estados U nidos 200j000 trabajadores extranjeros cada afio. Pero el avance se detuvo el viem es por diferencias sobre los salarios de los trabajadores. El sindicato aspira a salarios mayores a los que cam ara ha aceptado hasta el m om enta. "Soy optim ista. Siempre he dicho que si veo un retraso en el proceso, tengo m i propio proyecto de ley. Estoy Usta para intervenir. Pero no cteo que vaya a ser necesario. Creo que hay com prom iso en este gm po de senadores dem deratas y republicanos para lograr esta", afirmd O bam a.

New Dalhart Affordable Housing Development Breaks Ground (Dalhart)—A groundbreak­ ing ceremony was held today in Dalhart to commence the construction of the Rita Blanca Apartments, a 28 unit afford­ able rental housing development targeted to low-income agricul­ tural workers. The Rita Blanca Apartments project is being developed by the Guadalupe Economic Services Corpora­ tion (GESC), a Texas nonprofit corporation. Joining GESC at the groundbreaking ceremony today were representatives firam the U.S. Department of Agriculnire (USDA) and the Texas State Affordable Housing Corporation (TSAHC), the entities financing the proposed development. “Our groundbreaking repre­ sents a culmination of expe­ riences to expand housing opportunities available to the community by constructing safe and affordable housing for fami­ lies who otherwise would not be able to find or afford a suit­ able place to five,” said Diana Lopez, Executive Director of Guadalupe Economic Services Corporation. The Rita Blanca Apartments will be constructed on 5 .73 acres located on East 9th Street and Maynard Street and wiU consist of seven four-plex buildings and one community building where educational programs will be available to residents. The units will range from 888 square feet for two bedroom units, 1,074 square feet for three bedroom

units and 1,451 square feet for four bedroom units. Each unit will have central heating/cooling, washer/dryer hook-ups, ce­ ramic file in kitchens and baths, and carpeting in living areas. In addition, all ground floor units will have accessible no-step en­ trances and will be constructed to meet federal energy efficiency standards. “We are proud to be partner­ ing with GESC and USDA to create affordable housing for low-income agricultural workers in a part of the state that sees very little new development but greatly needs it,” said David Long, President of the Texas State Affordable Housing Cor­ poration. The Rita Blanca Apartments will be reserved for families earning 60% or less of the area median income, which is $32220 for a family of four in Dalhart. All units will receive project based rental assistance from USDA, which allows low-income residents to pay only 30% of their gross income on rent. USDA has commit­ ted $2,686,430 as a deferred forgivable grant and $100,000 as a permanent loan. TSAHC is providing a 20-year loan for $356,125. The total construc­ tion budget is $32 milhon. Rita Blanca Apartments is expected to be ready for leasing by the Spring of 2014. Leasing infor­ mation is available by contacting Matt Archuleta at 505-258-1592.

ECONOMICO LOS NINOS LATINOS

IsBy Basilisa Alonso Hispanic Link News Service WASHINGTON, D.C. - As federal agencies begin cutting their budgets for social programs, educational services and other essentials that meet the needs of the constituencies they have committed to serve, Hispanics, African Americans and other of the nation’s poorest families are bracing themselves for the impact. That is the growing consensus among affected federal departments and involved public and private social service groups. This month President Obama signed a series o f automatic across-the-board spending cuts know as sequester. The action came just hours after he met with congressional leaders represent­ ing both parties when they failed to teach a budget agreement. The cuts impact such social programs as Med­ icaid, Medicare and early childhood education.

The National Hispanic Leadership Agenda, a coalition of more than 30 Hispanic organizations, states that 25,000 Latino preschoolers are ex­ pected to be dropped from Head Start programs, which provide school readi­ ness tools, laying the foundation for educational attainment. A nother 1.2 million children will no longer receive extra help in m ath and reading, and some 270,000 adults and teens dropped ft'om job training programs. NHLA executive director Hec­ tor Sanchez says sequestration will seriously affect vital federal funding of such programs as early child-care. “Obviously, cuts in those programs will affect the most vulnerable families and children.. .disproportionately hurting students of color, particularly Latinos. It’s going to affect the programs of English-language learners and students attending high poverty schools.” Education Secretary Arne Duncan

blogged, “The amount of money being cut from education programs and Head Start is the equivalent of about 40,000 teachers’jobs.” The sequester, set forth in the Budget Control Act of 2011, specifies mandatory across-the-board cuts in areas ranging from the D epartment of Defense to school funding if a deficit plan was not agreed on by March 1. The deadline expired and the president was required to slash $85 billion in spending for the rest of the 2013 fiscal year through September. With no agreement between Congress and the W hite House, the reductions will continue each year until the end of 2021, totaling $1.2 tril­ lion. Nearly $3 billion would be cut in education alone. In O ctober 2011, more than 12.4 million Hispanics were enrolled in the nation’s public schools pte-K through 12th grade. Overall, Hispanic students

make up nearly one-quarter (23.9%) of the nation’s public school enrollment, up from one-fifth (19.9%) in 2005 and 16.7% in 2000. National Association o f Latino Elected 8t Appointed Officials execu­ tive director A rturo Vargas empha­ sizes, “Anything that affects children affects Latinos m ore than non-Latinos simply because we are a larger share of America’s children.” The best advice, NHLA’s Sanchez says, is for the community to “push back on sequestration.” NHLA has launched a campaign to rally against sequestration’s effects. “It’s really important to be together, united in protecting all these programs that are critical for the future of the nation.” (Basihsa Alonso reports for Hispanic Link News Service in Washington, D.C.

Late Wedne.sday, we learned that three city of Lubbock employees had filed a comabout why and on what basis the complaints were filed were not made public, we can surmise that the complaints may stem from a statement attributed to Councilman Hernandez, in which he publicly questioned the city’s audit processes. In his statement, Mr. Hernandez is essentially saying that he has discovered discrep­ ancies in the city’s audit process and cites a “lack of internal controls” Part of his statement concerns information that he says city staff did not give to BKD, the city’s

The statement reads in part: "After speaking to and exchanging m ultf le emails with BKD representatives, I dis­ covered that the Q ty of Lubhock did not notify BKD (in the client planning question­ naire) of the fret th i hotel/motel taxes were not heing paid or were delinquent to the Q ty of Lubbock, from a number of hotefiers/motefiers. Fu^erm ore, I discovered that the City of Lubbock was lacking with regard to inter­ nal controls." A few hours later, we received another statement regarding the matter Imm City M anner Lee Ann Dumbauld and Pam Moon, Executive Director of Finance in which they dispute the conclusion cited by Mr. Hernandez. Their statement reads in part “Throughout the audit, City of Lubbock management and staff have worked closely with BK3 auditors. This included notifying them of issues of delinquencies on hotel occupancy tax and franchise fees in either the planning phase or during the suhstanfive fieldwork So there you have it: dueling press releases. After the complaints were filed, the Mayor called for a special city council meeting for April 4. It was too late for us to get a comment from the Mayor, but based on what we saw in-local media, it seemed that the Mayor’s position is that the matter will go forward and the council will have to decide; not whether they will investigate but what process they will follow. This to us seems to be a rush to judgement We understand why Mr. Hernandez sent out his statement He is an elected official and he is accountable to the voters in his district first and we agree that he should be able to use the media to communicate bis concerns to the voters who elected him. But what about Ms. Dumbauld’s use of the press to make her position public She answers to the city council and the council only. We find it rather contradictory on herpatt that the dtymanagerwho rarely, very rareh/ answers press inquiries, is all of a sudden using the press to counter Mr. Hernandez Or is it a case of a good defense starts with a g ^ offense? Mayor Robertson is quoted in the local media as saying that they will be forced to in­ vestigate, Sony Mayor, but no one can force the city council, the final authority when it comes to dty management to do anything unless it is requited by the city chatter, by law or by dty ordinance. If Mr. Hem andk did something illegal or unethical, then we would agree that further action would become necessary. Did the councilman step on the wrong toes and were the complaints filed in retalia­ tion for him bringing these issues to fi^t? Perhaps the most important question that needs to be answered is why is it than when ' s to bring more transparency to city government, there always seems to be some kindI 0of backlash?

President Obama Wants Action on Immigration

I

r= = sg^ S£®«s5 piSs*^'‘»

President Obama called on Congress on Monday to get mov­ ing on an overhaul of the nation’s immigration laws. Obama noted that lawmakers in the Senate and House of Representatives have made some progress toward finding common ground on immigration. A bipartisan group of senators, known as the Gang of Eight, has been huddling on legislation, and a group of eight House lawmakers is working on a framework for overhauling im­ migration laws as well. But Obama wants lawmakers to deliver him a bill to sign soon af­ ter they return from Easter break. "We are making progress, but we've got to finish the job," Obama said at a naturalization ceremony at the White House

in which 28 immigrants took the Oath of Allegiance and officially became U.S. citizens. T h is issue is not new. Everyone knows what's broken, and everyone knows how to fix it." Obama's goal of getting a bill done quickly might be hard to meet. Last week. Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., chairman o f the Senate Ju­ diciary committee, said he doubted the committee could complete work on a bill by the end of April. The head of the union representing more than 7j000 Immigration and Customs EnfOTcement agents wrote to the Gang of Eight on Monday that ICE agents' input should be considered before completing their proposal, according to a draft of the letter obtained by USA TODAY. Obama, who threatened in

January to introduce his own plan if lawmakers didn’t quickly produce a bill, repeated his stance Monday that legislation should include a plan for improving border security and a pathway for about 11 million undocumented citizens in the country to earn citizenship. The president's advo­ cacy for a pathway to citizenship for those who are in the USA illegally doesn’t sit well with some GOP lawmakers who say the president’s insistence on the issues suggests he's not serious about the legislation. President Obama greets new U.S. citizens after a naturalization ceremony for active-duty servicemembers and civilians in the East Room of the White House on Monday.

"I understand the history of the game." James said after the streak reached 25. "I appreciate the his­ tory of the game. But this team has a bigger goal than winning a number of consecutive games in a row." Still, the streak will go down as the story of the regular season. When it started, Miami was 5 1/2 games behind San Antonio for the overall NBA lead, only a half­ game ahead of New York in the Eastern Conference race, held just a four-game edge over Atlanta in the Southeast Division and were the league’s ninth-best road team in terms o f winning percentage. Funny what two months or so without losing can do. The Heat now sit atop the overall NBA standings, gained 12 games over New York in the East entering Wednesday, put away the Hawks for good several weeks ago and are now, by far, the league’s best road team. And with the streak over, all that's left now is getting ready for the postseason.

For the Texas Rangers, the focus is on who stayed in town, rather than who left. At least, that's the approach they're trying to take. There have been some big changes in the Texas lineup since not winning a game last October, particularly the departure of five-time All-Star and former AL MVP Josh Hamilton, now with the AL West rival Los Angeles An­ gels. Also gone are Michael Young, the franchise's career hits leader who had been the longest-tenured Ranger, and slugging catcher Mike Napoli.

And questions still linger about Hall of Fame pitcher and CEO Nolan Ryan's future with the team. The Rangers do seem set with their rotation, for this season and beyond, even after their failed offseason pursuit of top free agent Zack Greinke. That is a far cry from the team whose ritual each spring not too long ago was trying to cobble together starters. Japanese ace Yu Darvish, 18-game wiimer Matt Har­ rison and Derek Holland are all 26 or 27 years old and are

ing the transition to America under intense scratiny. "My comfort level is really high," Darvish said through an interpreter. "When I'm throwing, I feel a lot better than where I was last year." Darvish will start the second game this season for the Rangers, after they held him until the fourth last April. Harrison will be the starter for the very first game of the major league season, when Texas plays March 31 at new AL West team Houston. Three seasons ago, Harrison was left off the Rangers' post­ season roster and didn't pitch in their first World Series. He was 18-11 with a 3 2 9 ERA and four complete games in 32 starts last year. Asked what last season taught him, the left-hander responded, "That I should be able to do it again." The Rangers sure expect that he can. They gave him a new $55 million, five-year contract that could extend into 2018asweU. Holland, the lefty who pitched for Team US A in the World Baseball Classic, is 28-12 the last two seasons and had four shutouts in 2011.

signed for at least four more seasons. Alexi Ogando, back in the rotation after last season in the bullpen, is under club control at least that long. After a dominating seven seasons in Japan, Darvish won 16 games and was an AllStar as a major league rookie last year. The right-hander finished strong, going 5-1 with a 2.35 ERA, 67 strikeouts and 15 walks his last eight starts of the regular season. And he has looked strong this spring. "He's commanding the ball a lot better," manager Ron Washington said. There's no anticipation o f a sophomore slump for Dar­ vish, who appears at ease after a year to acclimate to a new league and new country. He said he feels better physically and mentally after a more routine offseason, as opposed to last year when he was mak­

dras will still top the batting order, with switch-hitting Berkman expected to take over the No. 3 spot while coming off an injury-plagued season and only 32 games for St. Louis. Adrian Beltre, the Gold Glove-winning third baseman going into the third season of his five-year deal with Texas, hit .321 with 36 homers and 102 RBls last season. As for filling the void Ham­ ilton left in the outfield, left fielder David Murphy ( .304 last season) finally gets his chance as an everyday starter. Hamilton played left and center, where Cuban defec­ tor Leonys Martin could now be the primary player nearly two years after getting a $ 15,5 million, five-year contract. It might be harder replac­ ing the impact Young had in the clubhouse during the 12 seasons with the Rangers. "We know what kind of guy Michael was in this club­ house, and we're all going to miss that," Beltre said. "What we have to do is just do the best we can to keep the good group together, playing ball the right way and win ballgames."

Ogando was an All-Star and 13-game winner starting in his first full major league season two years ago. Veteran right-hander Colby Lewis will miss the start of the season while coming back from elbow surgery. But he could be back in the rotation sooner than expected, maybe early May. Joe Nathan had 37 saves in his first season as the Rangers' closer. Left-hander Robbie Ross, the surprise out of camp last spring and potentially a starter, was 6-0 with a 2.22 ERA in 58 relief appearances as a rookie and will stay in the bullpen for now. Even with Hamilton, Young and Napoli gone, the Rang­ ers still have plenty of hitters, including newcomers Lance Berkman and catcher A J. Pierzynski. They just might have to produce rans a little differ­ ently. Hamilton and Napoli accounted for 67 of their 200 home rans last season, which ended with a second-place finish in the AL West and a loss to Baltimore in the AL's first one-and-done wild-card

Horse-Transport Violations Uncovered In Texas, Officials Fail To Act M orton, Texas — PE T A is calling on the Texas Anim al Health Com m ission (TAHC) to investigate im m ediately w hy state officials have failed to act on evidence of serious violations involving apparent fraudulent veterinary health form s in the transport of horses across state lines ftxrm Iowa into K ansas, M issouri, O kla­ hom a, and Texas. Last year, a PETA investigator rode along with a "kill buyer," someone w ho purchases horses and transports them to slaughter­ houses o r feedlots. T he kill buyer w as caught on tape admitting that the test form s he carried "certifying" that the horses in his trailer w ere free o f equine infectious anemia (E IA )—a potentially fatal viral disease with no know n cure or preventive vaccine—were ac­ tually those o f different horses. So potentially infected horses were imloaded onto crow ded feedlots in M orton, risking the health o f hundreds o f other horses. A lthough the TAHC had been made aware that the kill buyer, by his ow n adm is­

sion, was planning to bring horses into the state without vahd EIA paperwork, the agen­ cy has taken no action. "Agency inaction means that potentially infected horses traveling from Iowa to Texas may have spread this deadly disease from the Texas feedlot to the entire state," says PETA President Ingrid E. N ew kirk. "W hile agencies look the other way, kill buyers like this one ate still transporting horses to Texas today." T he group has also submitted a com plaint to the Oklahom a Department o f A griculture, Food, and Forestry regard­ ing its failure to prevent the same kill buyer from bringing horses with fraudulent EIA test form s to O klahom a. En route to O klahom a, he admitted that he uses form s for horses other than those on board his truck and that his veterinarian had taught him how to falsify EIA form s. PETTA has also posted an action alert on its popular website urging its supporters to call on the TAHC to protect horses.
