Andrea Pereira just shakes her head at how carefree she used to be, when she’d strap on her running shoes and jog alone at night in the streets of this gritty capital.
Then came the “express kidnapping” plague — ordinary people snatched off the street, sometimes in broad daylight. Homicides skyrocketed, with Caracas recording nearly 4,000 slayings last year, more than any other city in the world. Stories of robberies — and worse, robberies gone horribly, fatally wrong — became standard workplace chatter.

Barney Frank is right, immigration reform must move forward

1 Share
Every day we fail to reform our broken immigration system, 1,100 families are torn apart because Americans are not afforded the right to sponsor their same-sex partners for immigration.

Unfortunately, an amendment to the Senate immigration bill that would have granted this right to binational same-sex couples received significant backlash from Republican members of Congress and was stripped from the legislation.

Despite this setback, former Congressman Barney Frank is right that immigration reform must move forward -- and for more reasons than he stated.

“TRISTE REALIDAD DE... LOS PUERTORRIQUEÑOS” - ENDia - 13 Jun ' 04:05


Recientemente me encontré con el gobernador Alejandro García Padilla, en quien confié mi voto. Me le acerqué para expresarle mi preocupación de cómo se encuentra el País y cuál era mi situación. Le expresé que mi esposo se había quedado sin trabajo y que mi única hija, tan pronto se gradúe, se irá a trabajar fuera de Puerto Rico en una compañía muy reconocida.
Quedé perpleja de la forma que me respondió: “Las cosas están mejorando, el desempleo está bajando, el agua y la luz están bajando, dile a tu hija que no se vaya”. Esto me lo repitió una y otra vez....
Señor gobernador, deje de repetir lo mismo. Háblele con la verdad al pueblo. El pueblo no es estúpido. Yo soy una persona con preparación académica, diariamente leo todos los periódicos, escucho la radio, veo los noticiarios y sé que lo que está diciendo no es cierto. Esa es la realidad de los puertorriqueños. No engañe más al pueblo, no haga lo mismo que tanto le criticaron a Fortuño. Háblenos con la verdad. Voté por usted y por su equipo pensando que ahora sí las cosas serían diferentes. Ustedes eran mi esperanza, pero me han demostrado que no. Son iguales a los del PNP.
Le agradezco un millón que me abriera los ojos. ¿Quiere saber, Sr. Gobernador? Apoyaré a mi hija a que se vaya de Puerto Rico; aquí no hay nada más que buscar. Nosotros nos iremos detrás de ella. Triste realidad de nosotros los puertorriqueños.
