Representantes de la Alianza de Ciudades del Sur de Texas visitar\u00e1n Washington D.C. la pr\u00f3xima semana para defender las necesidades de la regi\u00f3n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Durante una reuni\u00f3n de la Alianza celebrada el jueves en Weslaco, el alcalde de Brownsville, John Cowen, que ocupa el cargo de presidente de la organizaci\u00f3n, enumer\u00f3 una serie de temas prioritarios que se deben tratar en Washington D. C. La inmigraci\u00f3n encabezaba esa lista.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abCreo que simplemente se trata de contar nuestra historia\u00bb, afirm\u00f3. \u00abCreo que existe una narrativa nacional sobre la frontera y que hay algunas ideas err\u00f3neas. Y queremos proponer soluciones concretas en las que la gente pueda trabajar y que creen un entorno en el que todos salgan ganando\u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Desde el punto de vista empresarial, la situaci\u00f3n fronteriza del Valle del R\u00edo Grande ha sido siempre una mezcla de aspectos positivos y negativos.<\/p>\n\n\n

Por un lado, las obras transfronterizas y los puentes aportan millones de d\u00f3lares en ingresos al Valle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Por otro lado, las ciudades fronterizas se han enfrentado a una narrativa nacional que las presenta como lugares inseguros, a pesar de que muchas de ellas registran estad\u00edsticas de delincuencia notablemente bajas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Los hoteleros se han quejado de que los posibles hu\u00e9spedes se preguntan si es seguro viajar al Valle.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

M\u00e1s recientemente, los empresarios han relacionado las importantes ca\u00eddas en la actividad de la construcci\u00f3n con las redadas realizadas en las obras locales por agentes del Servicio de Inmigraci\u00f3n y Control de Aduanas de EE. UU. (ICE).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

El diputado estatal Terry Canales, dem\u00f3crata por Edinburg, que intervino en una mesa redonda organizada por la Alianza el jueves, plante\u00f3 la cuesti\u00f3n sin rodeos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abPor desgracia, salimos en primera plana y nos llaman \u201czona de guerra\u201d, pero somos una \u201czona comercial\u201d\u00bb, afirm\u00f3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cowen espera que la Alianza pueda actuar de forma constructiva para cambiar esa visi\u00f3n de las cosas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abNo se trata de criticar, ni de crear un ambiente de confrontaci\u00f3n\u00bb, afirm\u00f3. \u00abHablemos de soluciones. Hablemos de c\u00f3mo esto est\u00e1 afectando a nuestra econom\u00eda. De c\u00f3mo se est\u00e1n paralizando los proyectos. De c\u00f3mo se est\u00e1n separando las familias. Creo que esas son las conversaciones importantes y creo que la gente necesita o\u00edrlas\u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n

Cowen afirm\u00f3 que el Valle del R\u00edo Grande tiene una valiosa perspectiva que aportar sobre la inmigraci\u00f3n, aunque se\u00f1ala que, en cierta medida, se trata de una cuesti\u00f3n universal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abTodos tenemos una historia de inmigraci\u00f3n, \u00bfverdad? Es muy probable que todas nuestras familias vinieran de lugares que atravesaban dificultades, \u00bfno? Y tenemos que reconocerlo\u00bb, afirm\u00f3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abLa inmigraci\u00f3n deber\u00eda analizarse desde una perspectiva econ\u00f3mica\u00bb, afirm\u00f3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abNuestra poblaci\u00f3n est\u00e1 por debajo de la tasa de reposici\u00f3n\u00bb, afirm\u00f3. \u00abPor eso queremos que nuestra econom\u00eda crezca y queremos tener \u00e9xito a largo plazo. Bueno, \u00bfc\u00f3mo podemos aprovechar la inmigraci\u00f3n? \u00bfC\u00f3mo podemos aprovechar a las personas que ya est\u00e1n aqu\u00ed para acelerar realmente ese proceso?\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seg\u00fan Cowen, la labor de defensa de la Alianza ha logrado llamar la atenci\u00f3n sobre el sur de Texas en el pasado.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abPuedo decirles que, cuando se produjo la crisis migratoria en la frontera, conseguimos que el presidente Biden viniera a la frontera para verlo de primera mano, y nos reunimos con \u00e9l\u00bb, afirm\u00f3 Cowen. \u00abAs\u00ed que creo que fue un verdadero logro para la Alianza. Y creo que hemos mantenido esas relaciones tanto a nivel estatal como federal\u00bb.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
