Washington DC - <\/b>Los senadores estadounidenses Ron Wyden y Jeff Merkley instaron hoy al vicepresidente Mike Pence y a otros miembros de la administraci\u00f3n Trump a tomar medidas que ayudar\u00edan a garantizar la seguridad del suministro de alimentos de la naci\u00f3n y proteger a los trabajadores esenciales en la cadena de suministro de alimentos.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cEs vital que hagamos todo lo posible para proteger a los trabajadores del suministro de alimentos\u201d, <\/b>Wyden y Merkley escribieron en una carta junto con <\/b>m\u00e1s de 30 colegas del Senado. \u201cLas fallas en la cadena de suministro de alimentos podr\u00edan tener impactos econ\u00f3micos significativos tanto para los consumidores como para los productores agr\u00edcolas. Tambi\u00e9n es imperativo que se tomen precauciones para garantizar la estabilidad y seguridad de nuestro suministro de alimentos\u201d.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Ha habido numerosos informes de trabajadores esenciales en plantas empacadoras de carne, instalaciones de procesamiento, granjas, supermercados y mercados que se enfermaron de COVID-19. Seg\u00fan los informes, algunos trabajadores se han sentido presionados para ir a trabajar incluso cuando se sienten enfermos. Tambi\u00e9n existen serias preocupaciones sobre la salud de los trabajadores agr\u00edcolas que a menudo trabajan, viven y viajan muy cerca, lo que dificulta mucho el distanciamiento social.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cLa grave escasez de capacidad adecuada de prueba de COVID-19 y equipo de protecci\u00f3n personal est\u00e1 exacerbando estos problemas\u201d, <\/b>escribieron los senadores. \u201cLa falta de acceso a pruebas y equipos de protecci\u00f3n personal deja a los trabajadores esenciales del suministro de alimentos en un riesgo a\u00fan mayor y aumenta las probabilidades de que el virus se propague, perjudicando a m\u00e1s trabajadores y da\u00f1ando a\u00fan m\u00e1s nuestra cadena de suministro de alimentos\u201d.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Los senadores instaron a la Casa Blanca y a las agencias federales a coordinarse con los gobiernos estatales y locales y el sector privado para tomar medidas en\u00e9rgicas para proteger a los trabajadores esenciales y el suministro de alimentos de da\u00f1os mayores. Los senadores tambi\u00e9n hicieron una serie de preguntas sobre las acciones que se est\u00e1n tomando y la necesidad de coordinaci\u00f3n con la industria alimentaria.<\/p>\n

Adem\u00e1s de Wyden y Merkley, la carta encabezada por la senadora estadounidense Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.), tambi\u00e9n fue firmada por los senadores Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.), Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.), Michael Bennet (D-Colo.), Kirsten Gillibrand (DN.Y.), Robert Menendez (DN.J.), Robert Casey (D-Penn.), Jack Reed (DR.I.), Mark Warner (D-Va. ), Tom Carper (D-Del.), Dick Durbin (D-Ill.), Angus King (I-Maine), Mazie Hirono (D-Hawaii), Jeanne Shaheen (DN.H.), Tina Smith (D- Minnesota), Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), Chris Coons (D-Del.), Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio), Patty Murray (D-Wash.), Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.), Chris Murphy (D-Conn.), Gary Peters (D-Mich.), Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.), Ben Cardin (D-Md.), Tim Kaine (D-Va. ), Cory Booker (DN.J.), Doug Jones (D-Ala.), Charles Schumer (DN.Y.), Tammy Baldwin (D-Wisc.), Edward J. Markey (D-Mass.), Tammy Duckworth (D-Ill.), Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) y Jackie Rosen (D-Nev.).<\/p>\n

El texto completo de la carta al vicepresidente Pence, al secretario de Agricultura Sonny Perdue, al comisionado de Alimentos y Medicamentos Stephen Hahn, al administrador de la Agencia de Protecci\u00f3n Ambiental Andrew Wheeler y al secretario interino de Seguridad Nacional Chad Wolf es aqu\u00ed<\/a><\/b>.<\/p>\n
