Immigration and Border Issues

El Caucus Hispano del Congreso (CHC) estadounidense, integrado por legisladores demócratas de ascendencia hispana, advirtió este martes que la política migratoria de la Administración de Donald Trump amenaza el éxito del Mundial de Fútbol que se celebrará en EU en 2026. 

“We’ll cross that bridge when we get there,” Rep. Adriano Espaillat (D-N.Y.), chair of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, said in an interview. “I have to study all the facts. This is not over yet, but it certainly hasn’t started out in a good way.”

Barragán: People feel that it's unnecessary. They feel this is the administration taking over. And it is. This is a sign of a dictator who takes over a National Guard against the governor's will, [and] against all elected officials' will. The presence of the National Guard in itself is sending that message, "we're here to take you over."

“Today, ICE violated all of our rights,” Mr. Espaillat said on Sunday. “We deserve to know what’s going on the 10th floor.” He added, “If there’s nothing wrong, there’s no reason we shouldn’t be able to go in to see it.”

Moving forward, Garcia and the rest say they won’t rule out visiting again. Other members of Congress, such as Sen. Cory Booker, D-NJ, have announced plans to travel there, as well as members from the Congressional Hispanic Caucus.
