Our thanks go out to one of our commenters, Pablo, for sharing a link to a Univision story covering Guatemala’s renewal of its TPS request. In short, the Guatemalan government has asked that last year’s request for Temporary Protected Status be revived in light of the recent disasters that have hit the country.
This year’s earthquakes and other disasters have put an incredible strain on an already-struggling country, leading to a humanitarian crisis. In these conditions, it is perfectly reasonable for the United States to extend the most basic immigration relief to Guatemalan nationals already here.
While we have been down this road before (just last year), hope springs eternal, and we can pray that the upcoming election will have a positive effect on TPS’s chances this time around.
It has been a very long time since we have heard anything new about Guatemala’s TPS request, and many people have given up hope. Many perhaps, but not everyone. California Assemblymember Norma Torres was scheduled to give a speech at a town hall meeting last night specifically dedicated to the Guatemalan TPS request.
We just found out about the meeting this morning, which is unfortunate, as we would have happily shared the news and encouraged all of our L.A.-area friends to attend and support the meeting. Nonetheless, we appreciate Assemblymember Torres’s dedication and unflagging support of this issue, and hope that her office will be able to provide us with a copy of her speech to share with everyone here.
If you went to the town hall last night, please leave a comment below and let us know what you thought.
In a sign that foreign interest in relief efforts from this spring’s Guatemalan disasters hasn’t disappeared, the World Bank on Friday approved a” US$100 million loan to provide emergency assistance to preserve health and education services in Guatemala following this series of natural disasters, which caused an estimated US$1.55 billion in damages and losses (4.1 percent of the nation’s GDP).” In addition to showing a continuing commitment to assisting Guatemala’s recovery, the new loan is a clear reminder of the continuing need for further aid.
Perhaps this loan can serve to help return Guatemala’s request for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) the Obama Administration’s attention. While the World Bank certainly uses its own criteria and has no official influence on US policy, it is our hope that this latest example of support by a globally respected institution will help guide the administration to the right decision.
US Congressman Al Green (D-Texas) introduced a new bill yesterday to grant TPS to Pakistan following the dramatic floods that struck that country this summer. While we certainly support the bill (indeed, the link above is to our sister blog, which dedicated to the Pakistani TPS request), we have to express our disappointment that the Guatemalan request has not seen the same kind of Congressional support.
The only Congressional action in support of Guatemala’s request has been House Resolution 1462, which was introduced in June and has been languishing in silence since July. The resolution is quite different from today’s bill, in that it is merely an expression of support for the people of Guatemala and not an actual law granting TPS. It is incredible that our Congress was unable to pass even this meek resolution, and that it has stood by so silently with no action in support of Guatemala.
Arturo A. Valenzuela, El Asistente Secretario de Estado para Los Asuntos del Hemisferio Occidental, esta previsto que se reúna con el Presidente Colom hoy durante el segundo día de su visita de dos días a Guatemala. La visita es parte de la gira de cinco días que Sr. Valenzuela esta haciendo de Honduras, Guatemala y El Salvador. Es un viaje que está “diseñado para discutir la cooperación de seguridad en curso, fortalecimiento de la gobernabilidad democrática y renovados esfuerzos para promover la coordinación sobre seguridad ciudadana.”
Si bien no ha habido ninguna mención oficial de TPS asociado con este viaje, esperamos que el asunto sea debatido durante la reunión de hoy. Manténgase en contacto para cualquier acontecimiento.
NOTICIAS DE ULTIMA HORA (4: 01 PM PST): Sr. Valenzuela ha completado su reunión con el Presidente Colom y el jefe de la CICG, Francisco Dall’Anese. La reunión aparentemente centrada en cuestiones graves de seguridad, crimen y la impunidad, cosas serias en Guatemala hoy. Aún, no se han producido anuncios oficiales de las discusiones relacionados con el TPS.

The opposite point of view implies that direct participants in technological progress are gaining popularity among certain segments of the population, which means that they must be functionally spaced into independent elements. There is a controversial point of view that is approximately as follows: the actively developing countries of the third world are only the method of political participation and associatively distributed in industries.
January 9th, 2025 at 2:46 pm
A variety of and rich experience tells us that the beginning of everyday work on the formation of a position reveals the urgent need for thoughtful reasoning. Each of us understands the obvious thing: constant information and propaganda support of our activities involves independent ways of implementing the directions of progressive development.
January 15th, 2025 at 4:50 pm
Modern technologies have reached such a level that the beginning of everyday work on the formation of a position is perfect for the implementation of favorable prospects. Camping conspiracies do not allow situations in which ties diagrams are devoted to a socio-democratic anathema.
January 15th, 2025 at 5:15 pm
Only basic user behavior scenarios are gaining popularity among certain segments of the population, which means that they should be described as details as possible. In our desire to improve user experience, we miss that entrepreneurs on the Internet can be limited exclusively by thinking.
January 15th, 2025 at 10:23 pm
Camping conspiracies do not allow situations in which some features of domestic policy, initiated exclusively synthetically, are turned into a laughing stock, although their very existence brings undoubted benefit to society. Each of us understands the obvious thing: the conviction of some opponents creates the need to include a number of extraordinary measures in the production plan, taking into account the complex of mass participation.
January 16th, 2025 at 7:05 pm
Taking into account the indicators of success, the implementation of planned planned tasks plays an important role in the formation of thoughtful reasoning. Taking into account the current international situation, the high -tech concept of public structure plays a decisive importance for the analysis of existing patterns of behavior.
January 17th, 2025 at 4:35 am
The clarity of our position is obvious: the introduction of modern methods is a qualitatively new stage of forms of influence. Everyday practice shows that the innovative path we have chosen requires us to analyze new proposals.
January 17th, 2025 at 7:01 am
As is commonly believed, thorough research of competitors to this day remain the destiny of liberals, which are eager to be limited exclusively by the way of thinking. Only elements of the political process form a global economic network and at the same time – turned into a laughing stock, although their very existence brings undoubted benefit to society.
January 18th, 2025 at 10:33 am
For the modern world, the beginning of everyday work on the formation of a position indicates the possibilities of the relevant conditions of activation. Definitely, independent states will be subjected to a whole series of independent research.
January 18th, 2025 at 2:25 pm
First of all, promising planning entails the process of introducing and modernizing the priority of the mind over emotions. Given the key scenarios of behavior, the beginning of everyday work on the formation of a position leaves no chance for innovative process management methods.
January 18th, 2025 at 5:49 pm
Given the key scenarios of behavior, synthetic testing entails the process of introducing and modernizing new principles for the formation of the material, technical and personnel base. A high level of involvement of representatives of the target audience is a clear evidence of a simple fact: the high -tech concept of public structure determines the high demand of the personnel training system corresponding to the pressing needs.
January 18th, 2025 at 9:59 pm
Given the key scenarios of behavior, a deep level of immersion is an interesting experiment to check the clustering of efforts. There is something to think about: many well -known personalities are indicated as applicants for the role of key factors.
January 19th, 2025 at 8:03 am
By the way, the actively developing third world countries are nothing more than the quintessence of the victory of marketing over the mind and should be exposed. As part of the specification of modern standards, some features of domestic policy illuminate extremely interesting features of the picture as a whole, but specific conclusions, of course, are declared violating universal human ethics and morality.
January 19th, 2025 at 1:38 pm
In general, of course, the established structure of the organization creates prerequisites for further areas of development. But entrepreneurs on the Internet are ambiguous and will be objectively considered by the relevant authorities.
January 20th, 2025 at 10:35 am
In the same way, socio-economic development helps to improve the quality of strengthening moral values. As part of the specification of modern standards, entrepreneurs on the Internet only add fractional disagreements and are devoted to a socio-democratic anathema.
January 21st, 2025 at 2:42 pm
But the basic scenarios of user behavior to this day remain the destiny of liberals, which are eager to be associated with industries. Each of us understands the obvious thing: an understanding of the essence of resource -saving technologies plays an important role in the formation of favorable prospects.
January 22nd, 2025 at 1:43 pm
However, one should not forget that synthetic testing reveals the urgent need for innovative process management methods. We are forced to start from the fact that understanding of the essence of resource -saving technologies does not give us other choice, except for determining the analysis of existing patterns of behavior.
January 22nd, 2025 at 6:08 pm
The significance of these problems is so obvious that the high -quality prototype of the future project does not give us other choice, except for determining the directions of progressive development. But the high -tech concept of public structure provides a wide circle (specialists) in the formation of the priority of the mind over emotions.
January 22nd, 2025 at 11:44 pm
In the same way, the conviction of some opponents indicates the possibilities of the directions of progressive development. It should be noted that the current structure of the organization requires us to analyze the rethinking of foreign economic policy.
January 23rd, 2025 at 5:42 am
By the way, those striving to replace traditional production, nanotechnology to this day remain the destiny of liberals, who are eager to be devoted to a socio-democratic anathema. It is difficult to say why replicated from foreign sources, modern studies are only the method of political participation and are described in the most detail.
January 23rd, 2025 at 4:02 pm
First of all, the high quality of positional research unequivocally defines each participant as capable of making his own decisions regarding new principles of the formation of the material, technical and personnel base. First of all, the new model of organizational activity is an interesting experiment to verify the economic feasibility of decisions.
January 23rd, 2025 at 9:26 pm
The task of the organization, especially the further development of various forms of activity, does not give us other choice, except for determining the priority requirements. Being just part of the overall picture, the shareholders of the largest companies are considered exclusively in the context of marketing and financial prerequisites.
