CA DA PUNTOS A SEGUIR DESPUÉS DE QUE CORTE SUPREMA NEGARA LA DISCRIMINACIÓN POSITIVA

Ahoraque el Tribunal Supremo de EE.UU. ha declarado inconstitucional la discriminación positiva en las admisiones universitarias, las universidades privadas de California tendrán que encontrar otras formas de apoyar la diversidad en el campus.
Las universidades públicas del Golden State tuvieron que cambiar su estrategia después de que los votantes prohibieran las admisiones basadas en la raza, aprobando la Proposición 209 en 1996.
Mamie Voight, del Instituto de Política de Educación Superior, dice que las universidades deberían reclutar a un gran número de estudiantes de preparatoria en comunidades de color con bajos ingresos.
"Hacemos un llamado a los dirigentes para que recluten a estudiantes de colegios comunitarios que desean reanudar sus estudios tras una pausa prolongada," dice Voight, "ya que casi el 50% de los estudiantes de colegios comunitarios son estudiantes de color."
Los sistemas U-C y C-S-U dejaron de usar el año pasado los resultados de exámenes estandarizados como el S-A-T y el A-C-T porque los estudios demuestran que tienen poco valor predictivo sobre cómo le ira a un estudiante en la universidad, y favorecen de forma comprobable a los solicitantes más ricos con acceso a tutores y cursos de preparación.
El doctor J. Luke Wood, presidente entrante de la Universidad Estatal de Sacramento, califico la decisión de "epitome del race-lighting", cuando el gaslighting se vuelve racial.
"Nos lanzan mensajes que dicen una cosa, pero en realidad pretenden distorsionar nuestras realidades," asegura Wood. "Lo que dijo el tribunal es que estamos protegiendo a la gente contra el racismo. Sin embargo, lo que realmente dice el tribunal es: 'No vamos a tolerar que se ofrezcan oportunidades a las personas de color.'"
Los defensores también piden a las escuelas que promuevan la equidad eliminando las admisiones

¿MÁS DÍAS DE ENFERMEDAD Y LICENCIA FAMILIAR? LOS LEGISLADORES DE CALIFORNIA PRESIONAN PARA MEJORAR EL EQUILIBRIO ENTRE EL TRABAJO Y LA VIDA
Los partidarios dicen que una serie de proyectos de ley ante la Legislatura mejoraría el equilibrio entre el trabajo y la vida al ampliar los días de enfermedad y la licencia familiar. Pero los opositores dicen que las propuestas perjudicarían a las pequeñas empresas que ya están en apuros.
Rya Jetha CalMatters
Cuandose produjo la pandemia de COVID-19 en 2020, los tres días de licencia por enfermedad remunerada de California para los trabajadores de tiempo completo no fueron suficientes para cubrir las cuarentenas o los efectos secundarios de las vacunas. El gobernador Gavin Newsom firmó una ley que exige que las empresas ofrezcan hasta 80 horas de licencia por enfermedad complementaria para los empleados.
La medida temporal se restableció a principios de 2022 debido al repunte de Omicron, pero expiró a finales del año.
Ahora, los defensores están instando a los legisladores estatales a aumentar la licencia por enfermedad pagada y ampliar quién puede recibirla para promover
la salud pública y la equidad.
Es uno de una serie de proyectos de ley ante la Legislatura que, según los partidarios, mejoraría el equilibrio entre la vida laboral y personal de los californianos. Los opositores, sin embargo, dicen que los proyectos de ley son una carga irrazonable para las pequeñas empresas.
Newsom no dijo el lunes si firmaría el proyecto de ley de licencia por enfermedad si se aprueba. Dijo que apoya ampliamente hacer más por las familias, pero también reconoce el costo.
“Tenemos la agenda de los padres, y la licencia por enfermedad pagada es sin duda parte de eso”, dijo después de un evento de firma de un proyecto de ley.
“Esperamos hacer más en el futuro. Sólo tenemos que equilibrar esas prioridades con otras en el corto plazo”.
El Proyecto de Ley del Senado 616 aumentaría la can-
tidad de días de enfermedad pagados que pueden usar los empleados de tres a siete días por año y ampliaría la forma en que se acumulan y usan los días de enfermedad. Según la ley existente, los empleados pueden acumular hasta siete días por año. Este proyecto de ley aumentaría el total a 14 días al año y permitiría transferir siete días por enfermedad al próximo año, en lugar de tres días.
El proyecto de ley, aprobado por el Senado estatal con una votación de 27-9 y por un comité de la Asamblea, se encuentra ante el comité de asignaciones presupuestarias de la Asamblea. Desde que se introdujo, alrededor de 150 organizaciones se han manifestado en apoyo de la medida, mientras que más de 60 grupos se oponen.
Según el Centro de Washington para el Crecimiento Equitativo, “muchos expertos en salud pública consideran que las garantías de licencia por enfermedad pagada son una de las herramientas más sólidas para detener la propagación de enfermedades infecciosas”, mientras que el Economic Policy Institute encuentra que los trabajadores de bajos salarios son particularmente susceptibles a tener licencia por enfermedad pagada limitada.
“COVID-19 presenta un ejemplo perfecto de por qué expandir la licencia por enfermedad pagada no es simplemente una buena política pública, sino una necesidad extrema”, dijo la autora del proyecto de ley, la senadora Lena González, demócrata de Long Beach, en una declaración incluida en el análisis del proyecto de ley. Agregó que “los estudios han encontrado que, para aquellos que no tienen días de enfermedad ganados, perder tres días y medio de trabajo equivale a perder todo el presupuesto mensual de comestibles de una familia”.
En 2014, California se convirtió en el segundo estado de la nación en adoptar una política de licencia por enfermedad remunerada, pero ahora ofrece menos licencia por enfermedad remunerada que 15 estados y muchas de sus propias ciudades, incluidas San Diego, Los Ángeles, San Francisco, Oakland y Berkeley.
La California Work & Family Coalition, copatrocinadora del proyecto de ley, argumenta que es “un cambio de sentido común… que asegura que los trabajadores de California no tengan que elegir entre su salud y el pago de las cuentas”.
Sin embargo, una coalición de organizaciones dijo en una carta de oposición que muchas pequeñas empresas no se han recuperado de la pandemia y ahora están lidiando con la inflación.
La coalición de oposición incluye a la Cámara de Comercio de California, que colocó el proyecto de ley en su lista de “asesinos de empleo” de 2023 porque “impone nuevos costos y requisitos de licencia a empleadores de todos los tamaños”.
La Cámara apoyó otro proyecto de ley, que fracasó en comisión, que habría aumentado la licencia por enfermedad pagada de tres a cinco días —en lugar de sie-
te— y habría permitido a los empleadores pedir documentación a los trabajadores. “La expansión de más del 100 por ciento es algo que realmente no todas las empresas pueden permitirse”, dijo Ben Golombek, vicepresidente ejecutivo de políticas de la Cámara.
Jenya Cassidy, directora de Work & Family Coalition, dice que privar a los trabajadores de los derechos básicos y la dignidad no debería ser una estrategia utilizada por las pequeñas empresas para crecer.
“Su negocio crece cuando sus trabajadores pueden prosperar, cuidar a sus familias y cuidarse a sí mismos mientras conservan sus trabajos”, dijo Cassidy en una entrevista. “Solo necesitamos normalizar a las personas que no trabajan hasta la muerte”.
Ampliación de la licencia familiar
Otro proyecto de ley ampliaría quién puede tomar hasta ocho semanas al año de licencia familiar pagada para incluir a la “familia elegida”, seres queridos a quienes las personas consideran familiares pero sin una relación legal o biológica. El Proyecto de Ley 518 de la Asamblea también permitiría que un empleado tome tiempo libre pagado para cuidar a un vecino, primo o amigo anciano, por ejemplo.
Actualmente, los miembros de la familia que pueden recibir licencia paga son hijos, padres, abuelos, nietos, hermanos, cónyuges o parejas de hecho. La licencia puede ser para cuidar a un bebé o a una persona gravemente enferma, o durante un despliegue militar.
Según la Oficina del Censo de EE.UU., el 82 % de los hogares estadounidenses se alejan de la estructura familiar nuclear tradicional, y el número de hogares multigeneracionales y LGBTQ está aumentando.
“El programa actual de Permiso Familiar Pagado de California refleja un modelo de familia nuclear obsoleto y solo permite que los trabajadores reciban un reemplazo parcial de ingresos para cuidar a ciertos miembros de la familia estrechamente definidos”, dijo en un comunicado la asambleísta Buffy Wicks, demócrata de Oakland autora de la medida. incluidos en el análisis de facturas. “Esta definición deja fuera tanto a la familia elegida como a los miembros de la familia extendida, como tías, tíos y primos”.
Wicks tiene antecedentes sobre este tema. Se convirtió en un símbolo nacional del equilibrio entre el trabajo y la vida en 2020, cuando tuvo que llevar a su bebé al piso de la Asamblea para votar sobre un proyecto de ley de licencia parental porque no se le permitió votar por poder.
Los defensores argumentan que el proyecto de ley es importante para los trabajadores mal pagados de California, que no pueden darse el lujo de tomar una licencia sin goce de sueldo para cuidar de su familia ampliada y elegida. También dicen que este proyecto de ley adopta definiciones que son inclusivas para los adultos mayores y las familias LGBTQ que dependen de una amplia red de cuidadores y hogares multigeneracionales, en los que es más probable

que vivan las personas de color.
Craig Pulsipher, director legislativo de Equality California, una organización estatal de derechos civiles LGBTQ+, dice que las recientes crisis de salud pública han dado forma a la política de este proyecto de ley: Durante el brote de mpox del año pasado, algunos hombres homosexuales perdieron sus ingresos porque contrajeron la enfermedad, anteriormente conocida como viruela del simio, o porque tenían que cuidar a alguien con ella.
“Estas experiencias me reafirmaron cuán importantes son las protecciones para la comunidad LGBTQ, muchos de los cuales no tienen familiares cercanos ni hijos biológicos”, dijo Pulsipher.
Según un estudio del Center for American Progress, es probable que menos de la mitad de los estadounidenses LGBTQ dependan del apoyo de su familia biológica cuando están enfermos, mientras que menos de un tercio probablemente dependan de un cónyuge con el que están legalmente casados.
Si bien no existe una ley federal que garantice el derecho a una licencia paga para las responsabilidades de cuidado, estados como Nueva Jersey, Washington, Connecticut, Oregón y Colorado han adoptado definiciones amplias de familia en sus políticas de licencia médica y familiar paga.
“Su negocio crece cuando sus trabajadores pueden prosperar, cuidar a sus familias y cuidarse a sí mismos mientras conservan sus trabajos. Solo necesitamos normalizar a las personas que no trabajan hasta morirse”.
-JENYA CASSIDY, DIRECTORA DE LA COALICIÓN TRABAJO Y FAMILIA DE CALIFORNIA
Más de 80 grupos apoyan públicamente esta medida, mientras que dos grupos se oponen, incluida la Asociación de Contratistas de Paisajismo de California, con sede en Sacramento, que aboga por los contratistas, arquitectos, diseñadores y sus proveedores de paisajismo.
El grupo argumenta que el uso del término “persona designada” en el proyecto de ley es vago y propicio para el mal uso por parte de los trabajadores que pueden reclamar el beneficio de licencia para potencialmente cualquier persona que conozcan.
En una carta de oposición al proyecto de ley, la asociación escribió que “las pequeñas empresas a menudo no tienen o no pueden pagar profesionales de recursos humanos de tiempo completo para administrar y rastrear todos los diversos requisitos que surgen de las nuevas regulaciones laborales de Sacramento”, refiriéndose a la disposición en el proyecto de ley que permite que el empleado identifique a la “persona designada” que necesita atención al momento de presentar el reclamo de beneficios.
Sandra Giarde, directora ejecutiva de la organización, dijo que no se opone a dar cabida a las relaciones LGBTQ y multigeneracionales agregándolas a las relaciones ya codificadas en la ley estatal.
“Pero “persona designada” y “relación similar a la de una familia” son términos muy amplios y ambiguos, y ahí es donde radica el quid de nuestra oposición”, dijo Giarde.
Los partidarios dicen que la terminología utilizada en el proyecto de ley se convirtió en ley el año pasado, lo que otorga a los empleados el derecho a tomar una licencia para cuidar a una “persona designada”. El proyecto de ley que se está considerando actualmente amplía esa ley al ofrecer licencia paga mientras cuidan a su familia elegida.
Proteger a los cuidadores de la discriminación
Los derechos de los cuidadores continúan en la mente de los legisladores, ya que el comité laboral del Senado está listo para escuchar un proyecto de ley el miércoles que prohibiría la discriminación laboral basada en el estado del cuidador familiar. Para mantenerse vivo en esta sesión, el proyecto de ley debe pasar por el comité antes del viernes.
AB 524, también propuesta por Wicks, agregaría el “estado de cuidador familiar” a la lista de características protegidas como la raza, la orientación sexual y la religión, lo que significa que los cuidadores no pueden ser discriminados cuando solicitan o tienen un trabajo.
“Además del costo emocional y físico que puede estar asociado con el cuidado, los cuidadores también enfrentan discriminación en el lugar de trabajo”, dijo Wicks en un comunicado en el análisis del proyecto de ley, señalando que la demanda de cuidadores aumentará a medida que la población envejezca.
La discriminación contra los cuidadores afecta de manera desproporcionada a las mujeres, las personas de color y los trabajadores con salarios bajos.
Más de 63 millones de estadounidenses cuidan al me-
nos a un niño menor de 18 años, y 40.4 millones de estadounidenses brindan atención no remunerada a alguien de 65 años o más, según datos federales. El término “generación sándwich” se ha acuñado para los cuidadores, la gran mayoría de los cuales son mujeres, que cuidan a sus padres ancianos y a sus hijos menores al mismo tiempo.
Aunque el proyecto de ley fue enmendado para aclarar que no se espera que los empleadores brinden adaptaciones especiales para los cuidadores, más de 110 organizaciones se oponen, incluida la Cámara de California, que lo llama un “asesino de empleos” y advierte que podría dar lugar a más demandas.
Los opositores argumentan que el “estado de cuidador familiar” es muy amplio y que “miembro de la familia” no se limita a un pariente real en el proyecto de ley.
“El empleador no tiene la capacidad de disputar a un empleado que se designa a sí mismo como cuidador familiar”, dijo una coalición de opositores al proyecto de ley, incluidas más de 60 cámaras de comercio, en una declaración en el análisis del proyecto de ley.
“Cualquier disputa expondría al empleador a un litigio costoso”.
Sin embargo, una investigación del Center for WorkLife Law encontró que los cuatro estados con leyes similares (Alaska, Delaware, Minnesota y Nueva York) promediaron una demanda por estado por año.
Golombek, de la Cámara, dijo que la ley de Nueva York incluye un lenguaje más claro, definiendo el estado del cuidador como “cuidado directo y continuo” en lugar del lenguaje de California de “contribuir al cuidado de”.
Más de 50 organizaciones apoyan el proyecto de ley, incluida la Asociación de Empleados Escolares de California, que representa a 250,000 miembros del personal escolar en todo el estado.
“La mayoría de nuestros miembros son mujeres de color, y a las mujeres a menudo se les asigna el papel de cuidadoras en su familia”, dijo la asociación en un comunicado en el análisis del proyecto de ley. “Creemos firmemente que a nadie se le deben negar oportunidades laborales en función de su condición de cuidador familiar”.

MORE SICK DAYS AND FAMILY LEAVE? CALIFORNIA LAWMAKERS PUSH TO IMPROVE WORK-LIFE BALANCE
Supporters say a series of bills before the Legislature would improve work-life balance by expanding sick days and family leave. But opponents say the proposals would hurt struggling small businesses.
Rya Jetha CalMatters
Whenthe COVID-19 pandemic struck in 2020, California’s three days of paid sick leave for full-time workers was not enough to cover quarantines or vaccine side effects. Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a law requiring companies to offer as much as 80 hours of supplemental sick leave for employees.
The temporary measure was restored in early 2022 due to the Omicron surge, but expired at the end of the year.
Now, advocates are urging state lawmakers to increase paid sick leave and expand who can receive it to promote public health and equity.
It’s one of a series of bills before the Legislature that supporters say would improve work-life balance for Californians. Opponents, however, say the bills are an unreasonable burden to put on small businesses.
Newsom wouldn’t say Monday whether he would sign the sick leave bill if it’s passed. He did say that he broadly supports doing more for families, but also recognizes the cost.
“We have a parents’ agenda, and paid sick leave is certainly part of that,” he said after a bill signing event. “We look forward to doing

more in the future. We just have to sort of balance those priorities against others in the short term.”
Senate Bill 616 would raise the number of paid sick days that can be used by employees from three to seven days per year and expand how sick days are accrued and used. Under existing law, employees can accrue as many as seven days per year. This bill would increase the total to 14 days a year and allow seven sick days to roll over to the next year, up from three days.
The bill, approved by the state Senate on a 27-9 vote and by an Assembly committee, is before the Assembly appropriations committee. Since being introduced, about 150 organizations have come out in support of the measure, while more than 60 groups oppose it.
According to the Washington Center for Equitable Growth, “paid sick leave guarantees are seen by many public health experts as one of the strongest tools in stopping the spread of infectious diseases,” while the Economic Policy Institute finds that low-wage workers are particularly susceptible to having limited paid sick leave.
“COVID-19 presents a perfect example of why expanding paid sick leave is not simply good public policy, but a dire necessity,” bill author Sen. Lena Gonzalez, a Long Beach Democrat, said in a statement included in the bill analysis. She added that “studies have found that, for those without earned sick days, missing three and a half days of work equates to losing a family’s entire monthly grocery budget.”
In 2014, California became the second state in the nation to adopt a paid sick leave policy, but now provides less paid sick leave than 15 states and many of its own cities, including San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Oakland and Berkeley.
The California Work & Family Coalition, a cosponsor of the bill, argues that it is “a commonsense change…ensuring that California workers do not have to choose between their health and paying the bills.”
However, a coalition of organizations said in an opposition letter that many small businesses have not recovered from the pandemic and are now dealing with inflation.
The opposition coalition includes the California Chamber of Commerce, which has placed the bill on its 2023 “job killer” list because it “imposes new costs and leave requirements on employers of all sizes.”
The Chamber supported another bill, which failed in committee, that would have increased paid sick leave from three to five days — instead of seven — and would have allowed employers to ask for documentation from workers. “The more than 100 percent expansion is something that really not all businesses can afford to do,” said Ben Golombek, the Chamber’s executive vice president for policy.
Jenya Cassidy, director of the Work & Family Coalition, says that depriving basic rights and dignity to workers should not be a strategy used by small businesses to grow.
“Your business grows when your workers can thrive, care for their families and care for themselves while keeping their jobs,” Cassidy said in an interview. “We just need to normalize people not working themselves to death.”

Expanding family leave
Another bill would expand who can take as long as eight weeks a year in paid family leave to include “chosen family” — loved ones whom people consider family but without a legal or biological relationship. Assembly Bill 518 would also allow an employee to take paid time off to care for an elderly neighbor, cousin or friend, for example. Currently, family members who can receive paid leave are children, parents, grandparents, grandchildren, siblings, spouses, or domestic partners. The leave can be to care for a baby or a seriously ill person, or during a military deployment.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 82% of American households depart from the traditional nuclear family structure, and the number of multigenerational and LGBTQ homes is increasing.
“California’s current Paid Family Leave program reflects an outdated nuclear family model and only allows workers to receive partial income replacement to care for certain narrowly defined family members,” Assemblymember Buffy Wicks, an Oakland Democrat who authored the measure, said in a statement included in the bill analysis. “This definition leaves out both chosen family and extended family members such as aunts, uncles and cousins.”
Wicks has history on this issue. She became a national symbol of work-life balance in 2020, when she had to bring her infant to the Assembly floor to vote on a parental leave bill because she wasn’t allowed to vote by proxy.
Proponents argue that the bill is important for California’s low-paid workers, who cannot afford to take unpaid leave to care for their chosen and extended family. They also say that this bill adopts definitions that are inclusive to aging adults and LGBTQ families who rely on a wide network of caregivers and multigenerational households, which people of color are more likely to live in.
Craig Pulsipher, legislative director at Equality California, a statewide LGBTQ+ civil rights organization, says that recent public health crises have shaped the policy in this bill: During the mpox outbreak last year, some gay men lost their income because they contracted the disease, formerly known as monkeypox, or because they had to care for someone with it.
“These experiences reinforced for me how important protections are for the LGBTQ
community, many of whom don’t have close family members or biological children,” said Pulsipher.
According to a study by the Center for American Progress, fewer than half of LGBTQ Americans are likely to rely on their biological family for support when sick, while fewer than one-third are likely to rely on a spouse to whom they are legally married.
While there is no federal law that guarantees the right to paid leave for caregiving responsibilities, states including New Jersey, Washington, Connecticut, Oregon and Colorado have adopted expansive definitions of family in their paid family and medical leave policies.
“Your business grows when your workers can thrive, care for their families and care for themselves while keeping their jobs. We just need to normalize people not working themselves to death.”
-JENYA CASSIDY, DIRECTOR OF THE CALIFORNIA WORK & FAMILY COALITION
More than 80 groups publicly support this measure, while two groups oppose it, including the Sacramento-based California Landscape Contractors Association, which advocates for landscape contractors, architects, designers and their vendors.
The group argues that the bill’s use of the term “designated person” is vague and ripe for misuse by workers who can claim the leave benefit for potentially anyone they know.
In an opposition letter to the bill, the association wrote that “small businesses often do not have or can’t afford fulltime human resource professionals to manage and track all the various requirements coming from new Sacramento employment regulations,” referring to the provision in the bill that allows the “designated person” in need of care to be
identified by the employee at the time the claim for benefits is filed.
Sandra Giarde, the executive director of the organization, said that it is not opposed to making room for LGBTQ and multigenerational relationships by adding to the relationships already codified into state law.
“But “designated person” and “family-like relationship” — those are very broad and ambiguous, and that’s where the crux of our opposition lies,” Giarde said.
Supporters say that the terminology used in the bill was put into law last year, giving employees the right to take leave to care for a “designated person.” The bill currently being considered extends that law by offering paid leave while they care for their chosen family.
Protecting caregivers from discrimination
The rights of caregivers continue to be on the minds of legislators as the Senate labor committee is set to hear a bill Wednesday that would prohibit employment discrimination based on family caregiver status. To stay alive this session, the bill needs to get through the committee by Friday.
AB 524, also proposed by Wicks, would add “family caregiver status” to the list of protected characteristics such as race, sexual orientation and religion, meaning that caregivers could not be discriminated against when applying for or holding a job.
“On top of the emotional and physical toll that can be associated with caregiving, caregivers also face discrimination in the workplace,” Wicks said in a statement in the bill analysis, pointing out that demand for caregivers will increase as the population ages.
Discrimination against caregivers disproportionately im-
pacts women, people of color, and low-wage workers.
More than 63 million Americans care for at least one child under 18, and 40.4 million Americans provide unpaid care to someone aged 65 years or older, according to federal data. The term “sandwich generation” has been coined for caretakers — the vast majority of whom are women — who care for their aging parents and minor children at the same time.
Though the bill was amended to clarify that employers are not expected to provide special accommodations for caregivers, more than 110 organizations are opposed, including the California Chamber, which calls it a “job killer” and warns it could lead to more lawsuits.
Opponents argue that “family caregiver status” is very broad and “family member” is not limited to an actual relative in the bill.
“The employer has no ability to dispute an employee designating themselves as having family caregiver status,” said a coalition of the bill’s opponents, including over 60 chambers of commerce, in a statement in the bill analysis. “Any dispute would open the employer up to costly litigation.”
However, research from the Center for WorkLife Law found that the four states with similar laws — Alaska, Delaware, Minnesota, and New York — averaged one lawsuit per state per year.
Golombek of the Chamber said that New York’s law includes clearer language, defining caregiver status as providing “direct and ongoing care” instead of California’s language of “contributing to the care of.”
More than 50 organizations support the bill, including the California School Employees Association which represents 250,000 school staff across the state.
“Most of our members are women of color, and women are often tasked with the role of caregiver in their family,” the association said in a statement in the bill analysis.
“We strongly believe no one should be denied job opportunities based on their status as a family caregiver.”

responsabilidades, y principalmente si respetan el espacio del otro. Hay quienes pueden opinar que esta pareja no tiene mucho futuro, pero si evitan los ataques de celos y la competencia que pueda surgir entre ellos, entonces se puede hablar de una relación pasional y exitosa.
LEO CON VIRGO
La inteligencia y el sentido de organización de Virgo, ayudarán a Leo a lograr sus metas más rápidamente. Virgo se sentirá realizado con el amor, dedicación y pasión que recibirá por parte de Leo. Muchas parejas de esta combinación, llegan a tener éxito no solamente en el amor sino también, en las finanzas y en el mundo social. Si llega a existir un balance intelectual en la relación, la felicidad estará totalmente
asegurada para los dos.
LEO CON LIBRA
Ambos disfrutan plenamente de la vida social, el elogio, los honores, la buena mesa y el gusto por la estética, la música y el arte. En esta relación, Libra aportará el refinamiento y Leo, el entusiasmo. Sexualmente lograrán realizar todas sus fantasías. Evitando los celos y los flirteos, a los que ambos suelen acudir de vez en cuando, la relación será plenamente estable y feliz. Juntos aprenderán a tomar las decisiones más acertadas.
LEO CON ESCORPIÓN
Existirá gran atracción entre ambos signos, porque son sumamente apasionados, aventureros, románticos, entregados totalmente al amor y a los

LEO CON CAPRICORNIO
Si algo les une a estos dos signos, es la tenacidad y determinación para lograr sus metas y todo lo que se proponen.

Afewdays ago, Christian Amador received a text message on his smartphone. It wasn’t from someone he knew. He thought he just received a missent text message.
“It was lovely meeting you. I enjoyed our dinner together, and I’m looking forward to getting to know you,” said the text, pointing him to a web link. He found the tone endearing, so he clicked on the web link. It immediately asked him to provide more personal information.
“At that point,” Amador said, “it became clear to me that it was a scammer.”
Text scams, known as smishing, have been on the rise across the United States. Scammers send different versions of a deceptive text message that is intended to lure the recipient into providing their personal financial information.
Another version of a text scam involves a USPS package delivery that has an unfamiliar web link, requiring the recipient to immediately respond.
“Text message scams, in 2022, cost people more than $330 million,” Monica Vaca, deputy director of FTC’s Bureau of Consumer Protection, said at a recent briefing with ethnic media and community leaders in Tampa, Florida.
Text message scams have escalated rapidly. Back in 2019, the financial losses from text scams were about $66 million, Vaca added. They jumped to roughly $165 million in 2021.
Since many people don’t report when they get scammed, FTC officials said the losses could be much higher.
“It’s a trick. They might pretend to be a package delivery company. We saw this explode with the pandemic when we were all ordering packages from Amazon,” said Vaca. “They’re after your credit card number. They want financial account information so that they can start charging your credit card.”
Getting scammed can be both financially and emotionally devastating. Victims are often too embarrassed or ashamed to reach out for help.
Psychologists say that while victims of other kinds of crime may have similar reactions, fraud adds a few layers of negative thoughts about themselves. Are they not smart? Is there something wrong with their ability to judge and weigh in on what’s right or wrong?
Many people think scams mostly affect older
adults or those who have lesser technological knowledge and skills, but reports to the FTC’s Consumer Sentinel tell a different story: anyone can be scammed.
Natalaya Rice, an attorney at FTC’s southeast region, said that whether you have a PhD, or you’re a lawyer or a doctor, you could be scammed—and there’s nothing to be embarrassed about reaching out to family members and reporting it to authorities.
Rice adds that scams affect every age group and demographic, though differently.
“I am a former prosecutor. I am very used to dealing with fraud issues. I’m very sophisticated. I knew what to do about it. And I got scammed,” said Chih Pin Lu, president of the Asian Pacific American Bar Association of Tampa Bay.
He recalled that before he and his family left Tampa for vacation, he tried to confirm their plane tickets, making sure that everything with their booking was fine.
“This was essentially within the 48-hour window before the flight, so I was definitely feeling the pressure to make sure that everything would go fine with our summer vacation plans,” Lou said. “Unfortunately, when my family reached out to the airline, we actually got a fraudulent number, and through that fraudulent number gave our reservation information.”
Then the person on the other line told them that because there were some delays with their flight, they would owe an additional $800.
“Being entirely new to this particular airline, we’re like, ‘Well, that’s never happened to us before, but we’re leaving in two days. We need to make sure we get our reservations completed. So here’s your $800,’” he said.
Lou, however, went back to the credit card company later on and mentioned that he had never heard of being charged extra for a flight. That was the time he learned that he had been scammed.
Vaca of the FTC said that community leaders and partners play a vital role to combat these scams because they could affect anyone.
“We need to go out into communities and try to spread the word, share what it is we know. Do not trust those text messages. Do not click on that link,” she said. “Instead, report it to the FTC at ReportFraud.ftc.gov. And remember, whenever you’re feeling in a little bit of a panic that something is wrong, take a moment, take a breath and talk to somebody about it.”
