But the United States still owes a historic debt to millions of undocu mented Hispanic immigrants, mar ginalized and with no choice but to live as second-class citizens, in the shadow of a society happy to have them fix their houses, mow their yards or take care of their children at low cost. But not to invite them to share the table, the bread and the salt, as equals.

Esto nos dejó con menos enfermeras para cubrir los puestos vacantes en nuestras unidades”.

U.S. LABOR SHORTAGES AND INFLATION

These backlogs can be fixed through a com prehensive immigration reform. Although al most 70% of Americans are in favor of it, there has been no appetite in a polarized Congress to ease restrictions for even legal immigrants.

“The concern about the benefits immigration provides to the country and the economy has been subsumed by the idea that it's related to border national security issues,” said Chen, who doesn’t see a major immigration reform bill happening even in 2023.

“From the middle of 2019 until the end of 2021, there has been essentially zero net immigration to the U.S,” said Giovanni Peri, Ph.D. Professor of Economics and Founder and Director of the UC Davis Global Migration Center, citing US Bu reau census data.

There are close to 194,000 open positions for nurses, and not enough US nurses to fill them.

Cerca del 15% de las ofertas de trabajo que emplean a trabajadores inmigrantes o nacidos en el extranjero en los EE.

“I was helping to cover shifts and I saw how burnt out nurses were becoming taking care of patients in COVID units,” she said. “As COVID began slowing down, nurses sought early re tirement, some of them changed professions, and some even died of COVID. This left us with fewer nurses to fill the open positions in our

La reducción de la inmigración coincide con más y más ciudadanos estadounidenses que optan por trabajar desde casa en trabajos en línea, y personas de 50 y 60 años que optan por la jubi lación anticipada. Cuando las empresas luchan por contratar personal, los salarios suben y el au mento del costo de la mano de obra se traduce en inflación, explicó Peri.

“Although in late 2021 and early 2022 these numbers started growing again, the fact that the inflow of immigrants stopped made the country lose more than 1.7 million (immigrants),” added Peri, noting that 900,000 of them would have been college educated who work in the STEM sector – doctors, computer scien tists, biomedical engineers, bio experts -- and 800,000 would have been non-college edu cated concentrated in sectors such as food, hospitality, elderly and child care. “We are talk ing about the 1.1% of the US labor force,” Peri added.Perispoke

“Aunque a finales de 2021 y principios de 2022 estas cifras volvieron a crecer, el hecho de que se detuviera la entrada de inmigrantes, hizo que el país perdiera más de 1,7 millones (de inmigran tes)”, agregó Peri y señaló que 900.000 de ellos habrían sido universitarios trabajadores del sec tor STEM -médicos, informáticos, ingenieros bio médicos, bioexpertos-, y 800.000 habrían sido no universitarios concentrados en sectores como alimentación, hostelería, y el cuidado de niños y tercera edad. “Estamos hablando del 1,1% de la fuerza laboral estadounidense”, agregó Peri.

“En los últimos seis o siete años hemos visto tremendos retrasos en los procesos de inmi gración en todo el país, tanto en los tribunales como a través de los Servicios de Ciudadanía e Inmigración de los Estados Unidos (USCIS)”, dijo Gregory Z.

Hay cerca de 194.000 puestos vacantes para enfermeras y no hay suficientes enfermeras es tadounidenses para cubrirlos. Desde los años 80, cuando los hospitales no tenían suficiente per sonal, enfermeras de otros países han ocupado estos puestos. Pero hoy, anualmente, las visas H1B están limitadas a 140,000 y las visas patrocinadas por familiares están limitadas a 226,000.

For Julie Collins, perfusionist and Program Di rector Department of Cardiopulmonary Sci ences in the College of Health Sciences at Rush University, one field where the absence of immigrants is acutely felt is medical care.

Según la Oficina de Estadísticas Laborales, en julio de 2022 había 10 millones de puestos de tra bajo vacantes en EE.UU. Antes del COVID, en un periodo similar, esa cifra era de 6 millones.

Since the 80s, when hospitals were under staffed, nurses from other countries have filled these roles. But today, annually, H1B visas are limited to 140,000 and family-sponsored visas are limited to 226,000.

Close to 15% of job openings that employ immigrant or foreign-born workers in the U.S. are still vacant, while the legal im migration system is in dire straits. From meat packing to home building to STEM profession als to nurses, the post-pandemic economy is reeling from a labor force decimated by restric tive immigration policies, which worsened un der Donald Trump’s administration.

COVID floors have been essentially shut down, hospitals are short staffed and one-on-one patient care is over, she said. “Of tentimes nurses are caring for multiple patients, which is increasing their chances of creating errors and causing emotional distress,”

“AlTrump.díade hoy tenemos alrededor de 1,6 millones de casos que esperan ser escuchados, (cada uno) por lo general toma de cuatro a seis años”, agregó Chen. “Muchas empresas están ansiosas por operar”.

“Veo lo cansadas y agotadas que están las enfer meras y lo frustradas que se sienten porque no se escuchan sus voces”, dijo Collins. “Si los hos pitales pusieran un sistema para que pudieran seguir trayendo enfermeras (inmigrantes), no ten drían problemas para llenar los puestos vacantes”, concluyó.

Para Julie Collins, perfusionista y directora del programa del Departamento de Ciencias Car diopulmonares de la Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud de la Universidad Rush, un campo en el que la ausencia de inmigrantes se siente con fuerza es la atención médica.

“I am seeing how tired and exhausted the nurses are and how frustrated they feel like their voices aren't being heard,” Collins said.” If hospitals come up with a system so that they could keep bringing in (immigrant) nurses, they wouldn't have problems filling their open posi tions,” she concluded.

Aunque los pisos de COVID se han cerrado, los hospitales tienen poco personal y la atención personalizada de los pacientes ha terminado, dijo. “A menudo, las enfermeras atienden a múltiples pacientes, lo que aumenta sus posibilidades de cometer errores y causar angustia emocional”, dijo Collins.

“La realidad sobre lo que la inmigración represen ta como un beneficio para el país y la economía, a menudo se ha invisibilizado por la idea de que está relacionada con problemas de seguridad nacional fronteriza”, dijo Chen, quien no ve un proyecto de ley de reforma migratoria venidero ni siquiera en 2023.

Meanwhile, the Automated Export System (AES), the agency in charge of processing work permits, has increased its processing times from 180 days to up to seven months.

The halting of immigration coincides with more and more US citizens opting to work from home in online jobs, and people in their 50s and 60s opting for early retirement. When compa nies are struggling to hire people, wages go up and the rising cost of labor translates into infla tion, Peri

• Proposition 1: Putting abortion safe guards in the California constitution: After the news leaked in early May that the U.S. Supreme Court was planning to rule that the federal constitution doesn’t guarantee the right to an abortion — and it did reverse the five-decade-old precedent on June 24 — California’s top Democrats, vowing to “fight like hell,” pro posed adding the protection to the state constitution. The proposed constitutional amendment was introduced in the Legis lature in early June and was passed with the overwhelming support of both cham bers by the end of the month. If approved by the voters, it would bar the state from denying or interfering with a person’s right to choose an abortion and contra Californiaceptives. has long been a safe haven for abortion access. In 1969 the state Supreme Court ruled that the California constitution’s right to privacy implies the right to an abortion. Reproductive access is also protected by statute. Supporters hope this amendment will reiterate that policy more explicitly and render it harder to reverse in the future, though some legal scholars say the language is still too am biguous.

has had some way for citi zens to initiate laws since 1898, it formally adopted the ballot initiative process after a special election on Oct. 10, 1911, when then-Gov. Hiram Johnson signed into law the ability for voters to recall elected of ficials, repeal laws by referendum and to enact state laws by initiative.

Thisclinic.November is no different. Voters will be asked to consider seven thorny policy proposals, from abortion to zero emission vehicles. Many more failed to qualify for the ballot, including one to raise the mini mum wage to $18 an hour. That means voters will decide the fewest measures in an election year since 1916.

Since 2016, initiative sponsors have pulled five partially-qualified measures from the ballot, but only in exchange for conces sions from the Legislature. The most no torious example came in 2018 when the soda industry funded a ballot measure that would have made it much more dif ficult for local governments to raise taxes. They pulled from the initiative — which then-Gov. Jerry Brown called an “abomi nation” — after lawmakers agreed to ban new local soda taxes for the next 13 years. Critics at the time equated the strategy with nuclear brinksmanship and hostage taking, but most Democrats in the Legis lature, however irate, weren’t willing to risk sending the tax-capping proposition to the

From 1911 through the most recent ballot measures in November 2020, there have been 2,068 initiatives cleared for signa ture collection. Of those, 392, or about 19%, qualified for the ballot. And of those that made the ballot, 137, or 35%, have been approved by voters, including 39 constitutional amendments.

The most measures on a single ballot? 48 in 1914, followed by 45 in 1990 and 41 in 1988.

So state lawmakers changed the rules. While initiatives can only go before vot ers in November, a tweak to the election code gave the Legislature more time to hold public hearings on those upcoming measures, while giving initiative backers the chance to revise or remove initiatives later in the process. The goal was a more deliberative, thoughtful process with more room for compromise.

Prop. 27 would allow Californians to bet on sports and other competitions online, but only through certified gaming tribes and large, well-established online bet ting companies. The measure, funded by industry giants FanDuel and DraftKings, would potentially direct hundreds of mil lions of dollars in fee revenue to housing and services for homeless Californians.

Most of the money would go toward new incentives for Californians to buy zero-emission ve hicles and to build new electric charging or hydrogen fueling stations. (Lyft, which is required to move toward ZEVs, is a ma jor funder). A quarter of the new money would go toward wildfire fighting and pre vention efforts.

• Proposition 28: Set aside school funding for arts and music: Sponsored by former Los Angeles Unified School District superintendent Austin Beutner, this measure would require the state to set aside a share of its revenue — likely between $800 million to $1 billion per year — for arts and education classes. The new money would be disproportion ately reserved for schools with many lowincome students to hire new arts staff.

By 2014, California voters were sick of bal lots larded up with too many measures, many of them highly technical, specific to one industry or difficult to understand.

A little history lesson

The push for more direct democracy was a part of a movement across the U.S. in the late 1800s for social and political re form. In California, it was fueled by con cerns over the influence that Southern Pacific Railroad and other “monied” inter ests had over the Legislature.

What’s the difference between a referendum and an initiative?

“The controlling factor is money,” said Glen Gendzel, a history professor at San José State University who has written about the early history of Californian direct de mocracy. “If it’s a pay to play system, then those who have the most money are go ing to play the most.”

That wasn’t always the case — nor is it to day. Sometimes the appearance of trying to buy a law can backfire. In 2010, PG&E spent nearly $50 million — more than 300 times the opposition — on a cam paign to make it more difficult for local governments to set up their own public power agencies. The utility lost.

What can be an initiative? Anything that’s the “proper subject of legislation” – as long as it only addresses one subject.

If the number of valid signatures in the random sample represents between 95% and 110% of the required total, then the full check method requires election officials to verify every signature on the petition filed with their office.

a public hydroelectric power agency. As early as 1923, a special legislative com mittee came to a depressing conclusion about California’s experiment with direct democracy: “Victory is on the side of the biggest purse.”

they may hold public hearings.

The founding story of the California bal lot measure is an electoral tale of David versus Goliath. In 1911, progressives in troduced the initiative statute, the refer endum and the recall as a way to wrest ultimate lawmaking authority away from a corrupt Legislature and bestow it upon the electorate.

But if multiple measures pass that conflict, the measure or provision of a measure that receives more “yes” votes is the one that goes into effect.

But from the early days, Goliath learned how to fight back.

And on the 1988 ballot, Californians faced five competing initiatives on car insurance reform. Voters passed just one. Also in 1988, Prop. 68 and Prop. 73 went headto-head on the regulation of political cam paign contributions. Prop. 73 received more “yes” votes, and after a legal battle, the California Supreme Court ruled it would take effect – only to be tossed out by another lawsuit. OPPORTUNITIES

• Collected signatures are verified by the Secretary of State’s office.

This is done in two ways, once measure proponents file at least 100% of the re quired signatures to qualify. Under the random sample method, each county elections office is required to verify at least 500 signatures or 3% of the number of signatures filed in their office, which ever is greater. If the completed sample shows that the number of valid signatures is projected to be more than 110% of the required signatures, the measure quali fies. If it’s less than 95%, the measure fails to qualify.

A statewide ballot measure is approved by a simple majority vote of the people.

In recent years, many business interests have gone to the ballot not just to advance their own policy goals, but to reverse the work of California’s increasingly Demo cratic Legislature. That strategy paid off for ride-hailing app companies and bail bond agents in 2020, when both indus tries spent millions to undo state laws aimed at transforming or outlawing their business models. No doubt cigarette and vape liquid manufacturers were taking note. This year, they’re funding an effort to nix a state ban on flavored tobacco.

Initiatives, which are more common than referenda, propose new statutes, as well as amendments to California’s constitu tion. Since 2011, initiatives can only appear on the November general election ballot.

Campaigns pay anywhere from $2 to $6 per signature to petition gatherers, de pending on how well-funded the cam paign is, and how close they are to the required number of signatures and the

deadline. Over the last two years, due to COVID-19 safety measures and the labor shortage, the price per signature could rise to as much as $15, some strategists told the Los Angeles Times.

The long and winding road to the ballot

To get an initiative or referendum on the ballot, there are a few steps that can begin more than a year before the election.

The Legislature is not allowed to amend the measure or prevent it from appearing on the ballot, but a 2014 law allows more room for compromise for proponents to withdraw qualified measures from the ballot.

It’s possible for multiple measures on the same topic to appear on the ballot – even ones that conflict with each other. If one is approved by voters and the others are rejected, it’s simple: The approved one takes effect. And if several pass and they don’t conflict with each other, they all go into effect.

the most recent examples was in 2016, when there was Proposition 62 to repeal the death penalty, but also Propo sition 66 to speed up the appeals pro cess for capital punishment by putting trial courts in charge. Because 51.1% of voters approved Prop. 66, it superseded Prop. 62, approved by only 46.8%.

In California, unlike in some other states, the ballot title and summary are not draft ed by the secretary of state or an election board. The language is meant to be neu tral, but former attorneys general Xavier Becerra and Kamala Harris were accused sometimes of not staying impartial.

A referendum allows voters to ap prove or reject a statute passed by the Legislature, but with some exceptions: “urgency” statutes necessary for public peace, health, or safety; statutes calling elections; or laws that levy taxes or pro vide appropriations for current expenses.

In most cases, initiatives and referenda share the same signature requirements — at least 5% of the total votes cast for the office of governor at the last election. A constitutional amendment initiative, however, requires at least 8% of the total votes cast at the most recent gubernato rial Currently,election.that’s a minimum of 623,212 sig natures for an initiative on a statute, and 997,139 for an initiative to change the con stitution.

Desde 2016, los patrocinadores de iniciativas han retirado cinco medidas parcialmente calificadas de la boleta electoral, pero solo a cambio de concesiones de la Legislatura. El ejemplo más notorio se produjo en 2018 cuando la industria de refrescos financió una medida electoral que habría dificultado mucho más que los gobiernos locales au mentaran los impuestos. Se retiraron de la iniciativa, que el entonces gobernador. Jerry Brown llamó una "abominación", después de que los legisladores acordaron prohibir nuevos impuestos locales a los refrescos durante los próximos 13 años. Los críticos en ese momento equipararon la estrategia con la política arriesgada nuclear y la toma de re henes, pero la mayoría de los demócratas en la Legislatura, aunque furiosos, no estaban dispuestos a arriesgarse a enviar la propues ta de limitación de impuestos a los votantes.

California ha sido un refugio seguro para el acceso al aborto durante mucho tiempo. En 1969, la Corte Suprema del estado dic taminó que el derecho a la privacidad de la constitución de California implica el derecho al aborto. El acceso reproductivo también está protegido por ley. Los partidarios espe ran que esta enmienda reitere esa política de manera más explícita y haga que sea más difícil revertirla en el futuro, aunque algunos juristas dicen que el lenguaje aún es demasi ado ambiguo.

Proposición 31: Reconsideración de una prohibición del tabaco con sabor: En 2020, el gobernador Gavin Newsom firmó un proyecto de ley que prohibía la venta de todos los productos de tabaco con sabor, ya sea fumado, masticado o vapeado. La indu stria del tabaco juntó suficientes firmas para pedir a los votantes que anulen la ley con este referéndum. (Un recordatorio: Votar “sí” es mantener la ley; votar “no” es deshacerse de ella).

La medida, financiada por los gigantes de la industria FanDuel y DraftKings, poten cialmente destinaría cientos de millones de dólares en ingresos por tarifas a viviendas y servicios para californianos sin hogar.

Proposición 29: Reglas de la clínica renal, ¿a la tercera es la vencida? Esta medida impone a las clínicas de diálisis una serie de nuevas restricciones, incluido el requisito de que un médico, un enfermero practicante o un asistente médico estén en el lugar du rante todas las horas de tratamiento.

Después de que se filtrara la noticia a prin cipios de mayo de que la Corte Suprema de los EE. UU. planeaba dictaminar que la con stitución federal no garantizaría el derecho al aborto, y que el 24 de junio revirtiera el precedente de cinco décadas, los princi pales demócratas de California prometieron “luchar como el infierno”, para agregar la pro tección a la constitución estatal. La enmienda constitucional propuesta se presentó en la Legislatura a principios de junio y fue apro bada con el apoyo abrumador de ambas cámaras a finales de mes. Si los votantes lo aprueban, se impediría que el estado niegue o interfiera con el derecho de una persona a elegir un aborto y anticonceptivos.

Así que los legisladores estatales cambiaron las reglas. Si bien las iniciativas solo pueden presentarse ante los votantes en noviembre, un cambio en el código electoral le dio a la Legislatura más tiempo para celebrar audi encias públicas sobre las próximas medidas, al tiempo que brinda a los partidarios de la iniciativa la oportunidad de revisar o eliminar iniciativas más adelante en el proceso.

¿De qué se tratan realmente estas medi das electorales? ¿Cómo llegaron a la boleta electoral en primer lugar? ¿Y cómo se enam oraron por primera vez los californianos de la democracia directa?

Después de meses de recolección de fir mas, recaudación de fondos y disputas leg islativas, tenemos detalles sobre las medidas electorales que puedes votar este otoño.

Propuestas 26 y 27: Legalizar las apuestas

La Prop. 26, apoyada por algunos de los go biernos tribales del estado, solo legalizaría las apuestas deportivas presenciales en casinos tribales e hipódromos designados. La medi da, que también permitiría a las tribus ofrecer ruletas y otros juegos de dados, recaudaría potencialmente decenas de millones de dólares para el presupuesto estatal, la may oría de los cuales se gastarían a discreción del gobernador y la Legislatura.

• Proposición 30: Millonarios pagando por autos eléctricos

• Proposición 28: Apartar fondos esco lares para las artes y la música: Impulsada por el ex superintendente del Distrito Escolar Unificado de Los Ángeles, Austin Beutner, esta medida requeriría que el estado re serve una parte de sus ingresos -- probable mente entre $ 800 millones y $ 1 mil millones por año -- para clases de arte y educación. El nuevo dinero se reservaría de manera desproporcionada para las escuelas con muchos estudiantes de bajos ingresos para contratar nuevo personal artístico.

Esta medida impondría un nuevo impuesto del 1.75 % sobre los ingresos de cualquier individuo de más de $2 millones por año para recaudar entre $3 mil millones y $4.5 mil millones cada año para financiar una col ección de iniciativas de reducción de gases de efecto invernadero. La mayor parte del dinero se destinaría a nuevos incentivos para que los californianos compren vehículos de cero emisiones y construyan nuevas estacio nes de carga eléctrica o de combustible de hidrógeno. (Lyft, que debe avanzar hacia los ZEV, es un financiador importante).

Este año, se lograron dos compromisos fuera de la boleta electoral. Abogados y grupos de consumidores acordaron retirar una medida que habría aumentado el límite de cuánto pu eden demandar los pacientes por negligen cia médica a cambio de un aumento menor.

Y el exdirector ejecutivo de la empresa de reciclaje Recology y algunos ambientalistas decidieron justo antes de la fecha límite del 30 de junio retirar una medida para eliminar gradualmente el uso de plástico no reciclable a cambio de un proyecto de ley alternativo.

Así que son dos medidas menos para tí este noviembre.

En los últimos años, muchos intereses com erciales han ido a la boleta electoral no solo para promover sus propios objetivos políti cos, sino también para revertir el trabajo de la Legislatura cada vez más demócrata de California.

Sin duda, los fabricantes de cigarrillos y líquidos para vaporizadores estaban to mando nota. Este año, están financiando un esfuerzo para anular una prohibición estatal sobre el tabaco con sabor.

Vaulx set up an account on a website that he says, “looked legitimate.” He then transferred $500 cash to his friend, who was supposed to purchase the crypto currency – a form of unregulated digital money where transactions are verified through digital ledgers.

The unregulated nature of cryptocur rency — which exists outside traditional financial systems — has made it both more attractive to smalltime investors and opened the door to a ballooning scam industry.
