La Ley FAST podr\u00eda crear o salvar 3,300 empleos en Oreg\u00f3n mediante la modernizaci\u00f3n, renovaci\u00f3n y reparaci\u00f3n de las escuelas de Oreg\u00f3n. Como se describe en la Ley de Empleo Estadounidense, Oreg\u00f3n podr\u00eda recibir hasta $253,000,000 en fondos para escuelas K-12.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cEste proyecto de ley crear\u00e1 empleos, ahorrar\u00e1 dinero para las escuelas que tienen altos costos de energ\u00eda debido a la calefacci\u00f3n de escuelas con corrientes de aire y, lo m\u00e1s importante, brindar\u00e1 a nuestros ni\u00f1os lugares mejores y seguros para aprender\u201d, dijo Merkley. \u201cActualmente hay un mill\u00f3n de trabajadores de la construcci\u00f3n desempleados y nuestras escuelas necesitan $270 mil millones en mantenimiento. Podemos esperar y hacer esas reparaciones m\u00e1s tarde a un costo mucho mayor, o hacerlas ahora y hacer que esos trabajadores vuelvan a trabajar. La elecci\u00f3n entre empleos y responsabilidad fiscal es clara\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Espec\u00edficamente, la Ley FAST proporcionar\u00eda fondos a los distritos escolares para:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>mejorar la calidad del aire con actualizaciones de los sistemas de calefacci\u00f3n, ventilaci\u00f3n y aire acondicionado (HVAC); <\/li>\n<li>eliminar el moho y reducir los costos de energ\u00eda con el reemplazo y reparaci\u00f3n del techo; <\/li>\n<li>apoyar la tecnolog\u00eda, los sistemas mec\u00e1nicos y la electricidad con una modernizaci\u00f3n del sistema el\u00e9ctrico; <\/li>\n<li>reducir el consumo de agua, eliminar el plomo en el agua, mejorar los ba\u00f1os y las tuber\u00edas; <\/li>\n<li>eliminar los desencadenantes de alergias y asma, contener o eliminar el amianto y reparar yesos y pinturas; <\/li>\n<li>reemplazar ventanas para ahorrar energ\u00eda; <\/li>\n<li>instalar paneles solares, generadores e\u00f3licos y generadores geot\u00e9rmicos u otros generadores de energ\u00eda limpia. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Se estima que por cada $1 mil millones invertidos en la construcci\u00f3n de escuelas se crean entre 9.000 y 10.000 puestos de trabajo. Seg\u00fan la Alianza Azul Verde, modernizar nuestras escuelas puede ahorrar $100.000 al a\u00f1o en costos de mantenimiento, suficiente para dos nuevos maestros, 200 computadoras m\u00e1s o 5.000 libros de texto. El edificio promedio de una escuela p\u00fablica en Estados Unidos tiene 40 a\u00f1os y las estimaciones conservadoras del mantenimiento y reparaci\u00f3n de escuelas aplazadas en todo el pa\u00eds suman al menos $270 mil millones.<\/p>\n<p>La Ley FAST ya ha sido respaldada por la PTA Nacional, el Consejo de Escuelas y Comercios de la Construcci\u00f3n de Grandes Ciudades, AFL-CIO, la Alianza Nacional de Construcci\u00f3n II, la Hermandad Unida de Carpinteros y Ebanistas de Am\u00e9rica y la Uni\u00f3n Internacional de Ingenieros Operativos.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">###<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WASHINGTON, D.C &ndash; Oregon&rsquo;s Senator Jeff Merkley has cosponsored new legislation that would create jobs through the modernization and repair of schools around the country.
