Jefa De La Patrulla Fronteriza Condenó Grupo Antiinmigrante Al Que Ella También Pertenecía

La jefa de la Patrulla Fronteriza de Estados Unidos, Carla Provost, perteneció a un grupo privado en Facebook en el que supuestamente hicieron bromas racistas sobre inmigrantes y burlas de tono sexual sobre congresistas hispanas, reveló el sitio web The Intercept.

El reporte asegura que Provost era parte del grupo privado y que tres meses después de su nombramiento en agosto de 2018 puso un comentario en la página, aunque el portal no revela si la máxima autoridad era un miembro activo cuando se destapó el escándalo el pasado 1 de julio.

El portal de investigaciones ProPublica, que sacó a la luz la existencia del polémico grupo, subrayó desde el primer reporte que miembros activos de la Patrulla Fronteriza y altos mandos del mismo pertenecían al grupo.

Entre los intercambios de mensajes destaca uno en el que los miembros se refirieron en tono de burla a la muerte de un migrante de 16 años que falleció en mayo pasado cuando estaba bajo la custodia de las autoridades federales en Weslaco, Texas.

Guardar silencio y no firmar nada, recomendaciones a migrantes ante redadas en EU
Otro de los mensajes alienta a lanzar a las congresistas Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez y Verónica Escobar comida mexicana en unos textos que contienen además groserías y palabras ofensivas, como imágenes de carácter sexual.

Tras las revelaciones, Provost dijo en un comunicado que estas publicaciones en el grupo eran “completamente inapropiadas y contrarias al honor y la integridad” de los agentes de la agencia federal.

El mensaje que la jefa de la Patrulla Fronteriza compartió es inofensivo y forma parte de la respuesta a un comentario de los miembros sobre su ascenso.

No obstante, la presidenta del Comité de Seguridad Nacional de la Cámara de Representantes Bennie Thompson exigió una investigación específica para saber si Provost y el secretario interino del Departamento de Seguridad Interna, Kevin McAleenan, conocían y habían hablado sobre estos comentarios, reportó The Intercept.

Harris County Attorney Ryan Obtains Authority to Sue Valero in Federal Court

County Attorney Vince Ryan will file a federal lawsuit against Valero Energy alleging years of violating environmental regulations have damaged the local community.  The Harris County Commissioners Court authorized filing the lawsuit during the court session on June 24.

“We appreciate the support of the Commissioners Court as we explore innovative ways to address the environmental disregard of these large companies and protect our community,” said County Attorney Ryan. “This is a very important first step for the County in bringing this kind of litigation against a facility impacting the community.”

Litigation in federal court against a company for its environmental impact on a community will be a first in Harris County.  According to Rock Owens, the Managing Attorney for the Environmental Group in the County Attorney’s Office, the lawsuit will be filed in federal court where the judge has greater authority to order remedies that will prevent future releases.

The case is the result of years of environmental regulation violations on the part of Valero – most notably, the benzene emissions after Hurricane Harvey in 2017 that affected the Manchester community. Manchester is a mostly Hispanic neighborhood next to the refinery in southeast Houston.

During Hurricane Harvey, the Valero refinery released toxic emissions including close to 1,900 pounds of benzene, a volatile component of crude oil known to cause cancer.

Action against Valero comes on the heels of lawsuits filed by the Harris County Attorney against Exxon, KMCO and Intercontinental Terminals Co., in the wake of recent environmental disasters.

UnitedHealthcare presenta una serie de eventos en Houston para que Medicare sea fácil y divertido

Llevar una vida activa es crucial para la comunidad Latina ya que los Hispanos tienen 50% más probabilidad de sufrir de diabetes o de una enfermedad hepática. Debido a esta cifra, es importante que los Hispanos piensen en su estilo de vida, estado de salud y que tengan un buen seguro médico.

De acuerdo con un estudio hecho por el Pew Hispanic Center en 2012, los hispanos representan el porcentaje más alto de personas sin seguro en el país. Buscar información sobre seguros médicos es un paso vital para planificar una vida saludable. Sin embargo, puede ser complicado y confuso descifrar los términos de la industria y entender las diferentes partes de los programas disponibles.

Para ayudar a los hispanoamericanos mayores a obtener más información sobre Medicare, UnitedHealthcare presentó la serie de eventos ¡Hay Más Adelante! en el Talento Bilingüe de Houston el sábado pasado.

La aseguradora está llevando estos eventos educativos y gratuitos a comunidades multiculturales en varias ciudades del país, incluyendo Houston, para ayudar a los adultos hispanos a identificar el plan de Medicare que mejor satisfaga sus necesidades y proporcionarles la información que necesitan para ayudarlos a tomar decisiones más informadas sobre su cobertura médica.

Los asistentes aprendieron sobre sus opciones de cobertura médica y disfrutaron de presentaciones de la reconocida cantante y ganadora de cuatro GRAMMYs Vikki Carr, la representante de UnitedHealthcare Maggie Vazquez y Chef Sylvia Casares, quien cocinó enchiladas saludables para la audiencia.

Vikki Carr habló sobre su experiencia personal y compartió historias sobre su carrera como cantante, hablando de la vez que fue invitada, como representante de los Estados Unidos, a cantar para la reina Elizabeth II. Ella cautivó a la audiencia con detalles sobre su transición de una cantante profesional a alguien dedicada a cuidar de su esposo, quien ahora sufre de demencia. Enfatizó la importancia de entender los planes de cobertura médica y qué servicios ofrecen. Su seguro médico le ha permitido tener ayuda en casa que, a su vez, le han abierto paso para enfocarse nuevamente en su carrera – mencionó que está trabajando en un documental sobre su vida.

Maggie Vazquez, de UnitedHealthcare, lideró la porción educativa sobre Medicare y explicó los conceptos básicos de Medicare, incluyendo los requisitos de elegibilidad y los plazos de inscripción. Ella aconsejó a los asistentes que hagan la investigación necesaria para familiarizarse con Medicare antes de cumplir los 65 años. Si los beneficiarios se inscriben tarde, pueden ser sujetos a pagar una multa por inscripción tardía.

Tomando en cuenta las estadísticas de nuestra comunidad Latina y nuestra predisposición a sufrir de ciertas enfermedades, es de primordial importancia que empecemos a buscar el plan de cobertura médica que mejor cubra nuestras necesidades.
