Immigration reform said to be slipping away
The possibility that the government of the American President, Barack Obama, may obtain a migratory reform in 2010 is seriously compromised by the weak U.S. economy, which translates into high unemployment and a lack of political support even among the majority of Democrats. According to journalistic reports, White House officials notified Hispanic activists that Obama’s government is getting ready to present a migratory reform proposal during the first semester of the year, including a proposal to legalize the undocumented and a “closing” of borders to immigrants. In statements published in the Laredo Sun daily this weekend, Congressman Henry Cuellar, a Texas Democrat, said that “If we don’t obtain the approval of a reform between January and May, nothing will happen until 2011.”
According to political sources, the Republicans’ resistance is further complicated by the little enthusiasm from a majority of conservative Democrats, especially in the House, where they could be the difference between the reform’s approval and its rejection. The conservative Democrats make up between 20 and 25 percent of the Democrat congressional membership and many of them were just elected in strongly Republican districts. The 2011 electoral season, when the House and a third of the Senate will be renewed, could represent a serious influence on the backing of the reform proposal, given that losses are expected for the Democratic majority. But the measure counts with the definite support of the majority leader, Harry Reid.

The bloodiest day
Last Sunday was recorded as the “most bloody day” so far in the cartel wars, with at least 69 organized crime assassinations reported in nine Mexican states. This record for one day surpasses the previous one set last August 17 during which 57 were killed. So far in 2010, there have been 238 organized crime related murders. As usual, Ciudad Juarez in the state of Chihuahua led the nation in the killing spree, contributing 26 of the murders.

Update on smuggled group from Africa
Seventy of the seventy-one smuggled aliens from Somalia and Eritrea who were detained by Colombian officials a few days ago [M3 Report of 1/6/10 relates] have been granted a thirty day stay in Colombia. That will allow them to apply for refugee status in that country. The 71st man will be deported; he was caught entering Colombia illegally for the second time. Felipe Munoz, director of migratory affairs for “DAS” [a Colombian gov’t. agency roughly equiv. to the FBI,] said that the smugglers of the Africans had promised to take them to Central America and from there to the United States.
