WASHINGTON, DC \u2013 El senador de Oreg\u00f3n Jeff Merkley, quien se desempe\u00f1a como el principal dem\u00f3crata en el Subcomit\u00e9 de Asignaciones para la Agricultura, emiti\u00f3 la siguiente declaraci\u00f3n luego de que el l\u00edder de la mayor\u00eda del Senado, Mitch McConnell, se negara a permitir que el Senado votara sobre la legislaci\u00f3n aprobada por la C\u00e1mara que pondr\u00eda fin al cierre parcial del gobierno federal. . El Departamento de Agricultura de los Estados Unidos (USDA) es una de las principales agencias afectadas por el cierre. El proyecto de ley de financiamiento agr\u00edcola propuesto, que est\u00e1 incluido en la legislaci\u00f3n de la C\u00e1mara, ya fue aprobado por el Senado con apoyo un\u00e1nime en el comit\u00e9 y con una votaci\u00f3n de 92 a 6 en el pleno.<\/p>\n
\n\u201cMiles de agricultores familiares y estadounidenses rurales pagar\u00e1n el precio por la obstinada negativa del presidente Trump y los republicanos del Congreso a aceptar la realidad y decir 's\u00ed' a un acuerdo razonable para reabrir el gobierno.<\/p>\n
\u201cEl USDA ya ha cerrado las oficinas locales de servicios agr\u00edcolas que son fundamentales para ayudar a los agricultores familiares mientras se preparan para la siembra de primavera. A medida que la industria agr\u00edcola sufre las tarifas de represalia, muchos agricultores han confiado en el USDA como prestamista de \u00faltimo recurso. Sin la asistencia del USDA, estos agricultores tendr\u00e1n dificultades para pagar las facturas, mantenerse a flote y prepararse para la nueva temporada de siembra si el cierre se prolonga. Y en un momento en que los agricultores y ganaderos de todo Estados Unidos buscan orientaci\u00f3n del gobierno federal sobre una nueva ley agr\u00edcola, el personal de la Agencia de Servicios Agr\u00edcolas no est\u00e1 disponible para responder sus preguntas o ayudar a inscribir a los productores en nuevos programas. Este es el peor momento para un cierre: cuando los productores enfrentan una gran incertidumbre antes de la temporada de siembra y necesitan m\u00e1s que nunca ayuda y orientaci\u00f3n federal.<\/p>\n
\u201cAdem\u00e1s, miles de comunidades rurales de todo el pa\u00eds conf\u00edan en los programas de desarrollo rural del USDA para obtener pr\u00e9stamos y subvenciones que ayuden con viviendas asequibles, servicios p\u00fablicos, crecimiento de peque\u00f1as empresas y m\u00e1s. Cuanto m\u00e1s tiempo contin\u00fae este cierre, m\u00e1s sufrir\u00e1n las econom\u00edas rurales.<\/p>\n
\u201cEl presidente Trump est\u00e1 rechazando este proyecto de ley bipartidista e infligiendo da\u00f1os innecesarios e intencionales a los agricultores y las comunidades rurales para que no parezca 'tonto' a sus seguidores. Esa es la propia explicaci\u00f3n del presidente. Hemos llegado a esperar que este presidente ponga su propio ego y engrandecimiento personal por encima del bienestar del pueblo estadounidense y el bien del pa\u00eds, pero no hay absolutamente ninguna raz\u00f3n por la que los senadores republicanos deban seguir su ejemplo. Aceptemos la propuesta de sentido com\u00fan de la C\u00e1mara de aprobar proyectos de ley bipartidistas, comprar otro mes para las negociaciones sobre Seguridad Nacional y poner fin a este cierre que acaba con el empleo\u201d.<\/p>\n
