Washington, DC \u2013 Mientras la administraci\u00f3n entrante busca la liberaci\u00f3n de $350 mil millones en fondos designados para ayudar a las empresas de servicios financieros, el senador de Oreg\u00f3n, Jeff Merkley, insta al presidente electo Barack Obama a utilizar la mitad de los fondos para ayudar directamente a los propietarios de viviendas con problemas.<\/p>\n

El oto\u00f1o pasado, el Congreso aprob\u00f3 un rescate de $700 mil millones de la industria de servicios financieros, conocido como el Programa de Alivio de Activos en Problemas (TARP), destinado a descongelar los mercados crediticios. La mitad del dinero se puso inmediatamente a disposici\u00f3n de la Administraci\u00f3n Bush; la otra mitad se retuvo en espera de una solicitud de fondos por parte del presidente. El presidente George Bush solicit\u00f3 esos fondos a principios de esta semana con el entendimiento de que ser\u00edan utilizados por la nueva administraci\u00f3n de Obama.<\/p>\n

En una carta a Obama, Merkley se\u00f1ala que los problemas que enfrentan las firmas de servicios financieros fueron en gran medida un subproducto de los problemas en el mercado inmobiliario y un fuerte aumento en las ejecuciones hipotecarias. Al ayudar directamente a las familias que est\u00e1n a punto de perder sus hogares, la nueva Administraci\u00f3n puede ayudar a abordar las causas profundas de la crisis actual.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cLos primeros $350 mil millones se distribuyeron a una variedad de instituciones financieras sobre una base ad hoc con poca responsabilidad y, al parecer, poco efecto saludable. Los accionistas, los tenedores de bonos y los altos ejecutivos han sido rescatados en diversos grados, pero las familias trabajadoras que luchan por conservar sus hogares se han quedado fuera\u201d, escribe Merkley. \u201cLas pol\u00edticas econ\u00f3micas de nuestra naci\u00f3n deben comenzar a enfocarse en brindarles a las familias comunes oportunidades econ\u00f3micas una vez m\u00e1s\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Merkley alienta al presidente electo Obama a comprometerse a usar la mitad de los nuevos fondos TARP, o aproximadamente $175 mil millones, para los esfuerzos de mitigaci\u00f3n de ejecuciones hipotecarias para mantener a las familias en sus hogares y ayudar a los trabajadores estadounidenses en la actual recesi\u00f3n econ\u00f3mica.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
