Refugees deserve asylum

December 2, 2015 by Archived posts Leave a Comment

By Carlos Solis |Staff Writer| Twelve million Syrians have fled their homes because of the civil war in their country, according to worldvision.org. Foreign powers, like countries such as U.S., and Russia—as well as organizations in the Middle East—have created a mess. The situation in Syria has now turned into one of the worst humanitarian crises in recent history. Since 2012, the U.S. has accepted 2,174 Syrian refugees - roughly a 0.0007 % of the US population, according to The Guardian. "Obama calls on U.S. to resettle 'at least 10,000' Syrian refugees in 2016 fiscal year," continued The Guardian. This number will only represent 0.0007% of the U.S. population. This shows … [Read more...] about Refugees deserve asylum

February 21, 2014 by Archived posts Leave a Comment

By Greg Avetisyan |Assistant Sports Editor| The state of California is in its worst dry spell in the last 100 years. President Obama made a trip down to Southern California to address the drought. Obama and Governor Jerry Brown met with farmers in Fresno, CA. Fresno’s farmland has suffered through a winter with a lack of rain and snow. Obama has pledged over $183 million from an existing federal fund to help farmers recover from the severe drought. “Water has been seen as a zero-sum game: Agriculture against urban, north against south.

We can’t afford years of litigation and no real action,” Obama said to The Huffington … [Read more...] about Obama turns attention toward California drought

Federal workers get minimum wage increase

January 31, 2014 by Archived posts Leave a Comment

By Santiago Castillo |Staff Writer| President Barack Obama plans to raise minimum wage for federal construction workers from $7.25 to $10.10 an hour. “Those likely to see bumps in future paychecks include dishwashers, food servers and construction workers,” according to The Huffington Post.

Obamacare leads to government shut down

October 5, 2013 by Archived posts Leave a Comment

By Andy Quintana |Staff Writer|   The federal budget failed to pass early October, because the “Grand Old Party” wanted to defund Obamacare once again. Obamacare should not have been involved in the decision to pass the federal budget. Obamacare should have been a separate issue from the budget altogether. Republicans have made efforts to put a holt on Obamacare for a long time. As the time came for a new federal budget to be created GOP seized an opportunity to defund Obamacare through; fear that a federal budget would not be passed, leading to a government shutdown. USA Today explained, “the motivation House Republicans had in placing an amendment to defund … [Read more...] about Obamacare leads to government shut down

February 26, 2013 by Archived posts Leave a Comment

Mariela Limon |Staff Writer| The nation will be hit with $85 billion of automatic spending cuts beginning March 1, threatening jobs and funding nationwide, unless Congress agrees on a resolution plan to avoid cuts. According to a White House blog, “Congress passed a law saying that if they couldn’t agree on a plan to reduce our deficit by $4 trillion – including the $2.5 trillion in deficit reduction lawmakers in both parties have already accomplished over the last few years – about $1 trillion in automatic, arbitrary cuts would start to take effect this year.” If no action is taken, the proposed cuts will affect domestic and defense spending.

Make Puerto Rico the 51st state already, jeez

February 1, 2013 by Archived posts Leave a Comment

By Angelice Romero |Staff Writer| It has been 61 years since Puerto Rico became a commonwealth of the United States, so why is it still not a state when it obviously should be? The answer is politics. Being Puerto Rican-American, I see firsthand the struggles Puerto Rico is going through and how becoming a state would benefit us. The education system in Puerto Rico is terrible and lacks major funding. According to The New York Times, riots started because of a 50 percent tuition increase of $800. This not only shows the struggles of the University of Puerto Rico campuses but it also represents the struggle of Puerto Rico and it’s people. The 2010 and 2012 census in Puerto Rico shows … [Read more...] about Make Puerto Rico the 51st state already, jeez

Leave our interest rates alone

April 26, 2012 by Archived posts

By Shanieka Perrier |Staff Writer| It’s unfair that Congress is considering doubling our student loan interest rates. Congress is set to pass a bill doubling interest rates on student loans.This decision is taking place this summer,  according to the LA Times. I’m a college undergraduate student dependent on loans. How am I going to pay back these ridiculous loan rates after I graduate? What’s interesting to me is that both Obama and Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Mass.) agree that Congress shouldn’t increase the student loan rates, according to Yahoo! News. It bothers me that Romney doesn’t have a clear plan. I would like to know how Romney plans to help out low-income undergraduate … [Read more...] about Leave our interest rates alone

Birth Control Pills

By Melissa Benton |Staff Writer| The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services announced Jan. 20 that all employers, including religious affiliated institutions, must provide contraception coverage in their health plans for all employees.

To quell rumors, the president considered releasing post-mortem … [Read more...] about Obama takes time to honor September 11 victims
