Plan de Donald J Trump para los primeros 100 Dias.
A continuación, este es mi plan de acción de los primeros 100 días para hacer de Estados Unidos Grande de nuevo. Es un contrato entre mi persona y los votantes de USA - y comenzará con la restauración de la honestidad, la responsabilidad y cambiar a Washington.
Donald Trump.
Así inicia la presentación de su plan de lo que piensa o desea hacer los primeros 100 días de su mandato.
Ha sido tan tormentoso, insultante, exagerado, truculento y sorprendente su triunfo que a todo el mundo nos ha causado una gran inquietud y angustia, especialmente a los mexicanos a los que ha tomado como sus víctimas principales.
He visto que la gente se encuentra entre un temor incontrolable a una agresividad no recomendable, pasando por la indiferencia absoluta como si esto no nos pudiera afectar.
Pero tal parece, que como la frase famosa, "Ni lo uno ni lo otro, sino todo lo contrario" que cuentan expresó Luis Echevarría Álvarez o Carlos Andrés Pérez, esto pudiera aplicar esta vez.
No debemos rasgarnos la ropa, ni tenemos que tomar las armas y mucho menos ser indiferentes a esta problemática.
Qué es lo que debemos hacer:
1. Analizar con cuidado las palabras, el contenido y la intención de lo que expresó Donald Trump.
2. Analizar y validar lo que dice que hará, lo que quiere hacer, lo que podrá hacer, lo que le permitirán y no le permitirán que haga y finalmente imaginar lo que no ha dicho y es capaz de hacer.
3. Hacer un plan de acción, proteger nuestras debilidades y usar nuestras fortalezas.
4. Aliarnos con todos los enemigos que ha generado durante su campaña, siempre y cuando nos convenga y ganemos algo con esto.
5. Usar algunos puntos de lo que ha prometido y que nos pueden beneficiar.
6. Aceptar el cambio y tomar el toro por los cuernos.
He analizado a detalle cada uno de los puntos que Donald Trump expresa y comparto mis observaciones así como la de muchos expertos del tema. En cada uno del os puntos expuestos por Donald Trump presento lo que algún experto ha escrito sobre ese específico tema así como la propuesta que yo hago.
A continuación doy un resumen de los puntos más relevantes y después de esta podrán encontrar un análisis detallado sobre cada uno de ellos.
El punto que más nos afecta o nos puede afectar es su programa de renegociar el TLC.
Deberemos prepararnos para renegociar, otorgar ventajas, pero también obtener beneficios. A ninguno de los tres países, USA, Canadá y México les conviene que muera este tratado. Les conviene a las empresas mexicanas y extranjeras que continúe. Les conviene a los gobiernos porque se incrementan sus ingresos y por supuesto le conviene a toda la población. Trump tendrá que renegociar; la presión de las grandes compañías será enorme; sus inversiones son inmensas y no las van a perder sin dar una pelea a muerte.
Si somos inteligentes podemos ganar más de lo que tenemos actualmente. Eso está en nuestras manos.
De la deportación de mexicanos a nuestra patria y la de ellos también, debemos saber cómo darle cabida a los que regresen. Eso de nuevo está en nuestras manos. Y de repente el numero de 11 millones se ha reducido a 2 millones o menos, lo mismo que Obama deportó.
Por supuesto que nos regresarán a los convictos de crímenes y eso será un peligro muy fuerte pero al menos tendremos sus antecedentes y los podremos vigilar. Imagínense que tenemos un hijo que comete fechorías en la escuela y lo expulsan por este motivo, ¿no es nuestra obligación hacernos cargo del problema?
Hay otros temas que nos afectarán pero también afectarán a todos los países del mundo y juntos podemos obligar a USA a que no los implemente por beneficio de toda la humanidad.
Hay un par de programas que nos pueden beneficiar y debemos sacarles provecho nosotros.
Otros tantos no nos afectan ni nos benefician y es su problema, es su obligación y es su derecho.
Mexicanos no es momento de entrar en pánico, ni tampoco, que cómo cabras en una cristalería empecemos a romper los vasos. Es momento de actuar, es momento de aceptar el cambio, es momento de innovar y sobre todo es momento de estar todos juntos ante este reto, que es real, peligroso, pero que lo deberemos superar.
A continuación, el análisis sobre el plan de acción que Trump espera lograr implementar es largo pero si quieren mayor información adelante.
En cada punto se muestra en primer lugar el texto original de Trump
Los que tienen fondo Gris es lo que muchos expertos piensan de las diferentes medidas que desea implementar.
Los marcados en fondo Azul claro y que empiezan con las iniciales MON son mi punto de vista y es un complemento a lo expuesto por los expertos.
What follows is my 100-day action plan to Make America Great Again. It is a contract between myself and the American voter — and begins with restoring honesty, accountability and change to Washington. Donald Trump.
Therefore, on the first day of my term of office, my administration will immediately pursue the following six measures to clean up the corruption and special interest collusion in Washington, DC:
MON: Estas seis propuestas no nos afectan en lo más mínimo independientemente que se hagan o no.
* FIRST, propose a Constitutional Amendment to impose term limits on all members of Congress;
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, long an opponent of term limits, threw cold water on this idea Wednesday, saying “it will not be on the agenda in the Senate” and "I would say we have term limits now — they're called elections." A constitutional amendment must be proposed by Congress or a constitutional convention (the latter has never happened). Since the president does not have a constitutional role in the amendment process, this is not likely to happen without Senate leadership on board.
Amita Kelly NPR Politics Editor
MON: Adicionalmente para lograr la enmienda constitucional de la que solo hay 27 enmiendas y se requiere dos terceras partes del congreso o de los estados y eso no los tiene.
* SECOND, a hiring freeze on all federal employees to reduce federal workforce through attrition (exempting military, public safety, and public health);
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, there are some 2.75 million civilian federal employees as of November. That includes 593,000 Postal Service workers. The number of federal workers has remained fairly stable during the Obama administration and is in fact as low as it has been since the mid-1960s. The federal workforce did grow a bit early on in the Obama administration, largely owing to increased hiring at the departments of Defense, Homeland Security and Veterans Affairs. Trump wants to exempt public safety employees from a freeze, and if he wants to hire more Immigration and Customs Enforcement patrol officers, it seems unlikely he will be able to shrink the federal workforce much through attrition, as retirement rates average around 3.5 percent a year, according to a Government Accountability Office report. Still, that report says some 600,000 federal employees will be eligible to retire as of next September.
Trump’s efforts to freeze the federal workforce are likely to find support on Capitol Hill. Republicans have proposed shrinking the number of federal employees by as much as 10 percent.
Brian Naylor NPR Washington Desk Correspondent
MON: Sus números no corresponden con sus propias intenciones. Solo para vigilar la frontera solicita más de 20,000 agentes adicionales. ¿Cuántos agentes se van a requerir para atrapar a todos los indocumentados?
* THIRD, a requirement that for every new federal regulation, two existing regulations must be eliminated;
Reducing the number of federal regulations is an unending quest for Republicans in Congress and conservative groups, which charge regulations hurt businesses and slow economic growth. The Competitive Enterprise Institute, which tracks the number of pages in the Federal Register, reports it is up to 79,380 for the year, with a month and a half to go.
So where to start for President-elect Trump, who at one campaign stop said 70 percent of regulations "can go”? One likely place: the environment. An EPA power plant rule aims to cut carbon emissions by nearly a third by 2030. Trump couldn’t simply veto the regulation, however, although Congress could vote to overturn it. But a Trump administration could certainly weaken enforcement of the standard.
The banking sector is another place for Trump to focus. During the campaign he said he wanted to "get rid of" the Dodd-Frank law that reshaped the banking industry after the 2008 recession. If repealing the entire law seems a heavy lift, one possibility would be to try to eliminate the so-called Volcker rule, which prohibits banks from making risky investments.
Republicans make no secret of their dislike of the recent Federal Communications Commission ruling that protects net neutrality. The Trump administration could also attempt to repeal a regulation that makes more workers eligible for overtime.
Brian Naylor NPR Washington Desk Correspondent
MON: Pobre planeta si lo lleva a cabo, todo el mundo se le echará a la yugular. El congreso no lo dejará que lo haga tan fácilmente.
* FOURTH, a 5 year-ban on White House and Congressional officials becoming lobbyists after they leave government service;
Trump’s pledge to place a five-year ban on senior White House officials from becoming lobbyists has been applauded by good government groups and others, who have criticized the so-called revolving door through which people pass from government to become corporate lobbyists and back again. Trump wants Congress to pass legislation to enact the White House ban into law, so it can’t be reversed by future presidents. Trump also called on Congress to institute its own ban to prohibit lawmakers and their staffs from lobbying for five years. That may be a tough request for Congress, where plum lobbying jobs are seen as a payoff for the sacrifice of public service.
Brian Naylor NPR Washington Desk Correspondent
MON: Jajaja, el congreso es el gran beneficiario de estas medidas. Lo más posible es que el congreso las rechazará.
* FIFTH, a lifetime ban on White House officials lobbying on behalf of a foreign government;
MON: Esta medida afecta a México y a todos los países del mundo y en este caso sí es su derecho. Lo que es parejo no es chipotudo.
* SIXTH, a complete ban on foreign lobbyists raising money for American elections.
MON: Igual caso que la anterior y no creo que en México se recaude mucho dinero para las elecciones en USA. Yo diría que más bien sería al revés .
On the same day, I will begin taking the following 7 actions to protect American workers:
* FIRST, I will announce my intention to renegotiate NAFTA or withdraw from the deal under Article 2205
Renegotiating NAFTA “would not be a trivial matter," said Eswar Prasad, professor of trade policy at Cornell University. The agreement, approved by Congress more than two decades ago, ties together the economies of the U.S., Canada and Mexico. Changing it would hurt many U.S. businesses and farmers that have well-established supply chains and distribution systems based on it. Still, Trump could significantly undermine NAFTA by using his administration’s enforcement mechanisms to hassle companies, "making life potentially difficult" for anyone doing cross-border business, Prasad said. "Could NAFTA be killed? Not in letter, but in spirit — yes," he said.
Marilyn Geewax NPR Senior Business Editor
MON: Esta medida es la más peligrosa para México, pero debemos entender que es UNA RENEGOCIACIÓN y por lo tanto se debe renegociar no se debe abdicar en todo las ventajas, pero será el que tenga los mejores negociadores el que le saque más provecho. Seguramente perderemos muchas ventajas pero también podemos ganar mucho terreno. Esto hay que verlo en la totalidad del contexto. USA ha perdido fuentes de trabajo que han salido a otros lugares de Asia y de Europa.
Hoy el presidente Peña declaró que “México no renegociara el tratado solo que lo modernizara” espero que sea solo cuestión de semántica y no, como con todos los cambios que ha querido implementar, sea un capricho y no se llegue a nada. Mas bien que USA se salga del tratado.
* SECOND, I will announce our withdrawal from the Trans-Pacific Partnership.
MON: Esto puede ser bueno para México si logra conservar el TLC aun con algún costo. Nosotros y Canadá ganamos ya que estaremos en ambos tratados.
* THIRD, I will direct my Secretary of the Treasury to label China a currency manipulator.
MON: Qué bueno ya era hora. Esto beneficia México, la competencia será más limpia.
* FOURTH, I will direct the Secretary of Commerce and U.S. Trade Representative to identify all foreign trading abuses that unfairly impact American workers and direct them to use every tool under American and international law to end those abuses immediately.
MON: Ese es su derecho y su obligación. Ojalá en México hiciéramos lo mismo. El problema es que tardará meses si no años en que se haga efectivo.
* FIFTH, I will lift the restrictions on the production of $50 trillion dollars' worth of job-producing American energy reserves, including shale, oil, natural gas and clean coal.
MON: Pobre planeta, pero lo que rige el precio de los energéticos es la oferta y la demanda mundial. Por otro lado México comprará Gas y Gasolina más barata.
* SIXTH, lift the Obama-Clinton roadblocks and allow vital energy infrastructure projects, like the Keystone Pipeline, to move forward.
The Obama administration blocked construction of the northern stretch of the Keystone XL pipeline by denying TransCanada Corp. a needed State Department permit. A Trump administration could greenlight the project by granting that permit. TransCanada says it is eager to start work. Climate activists complain the pipeline will encourage greater development of carbon-intensive oil from the Canadian tar sands.
Scott Horsley NPR White House Correspondent
MON: Pobre planeta y pobre Estados Unidos y Canadá, ellos serán los que sufran las mayores consecuencias.
* SEVENTH, cancel billions in payments to U.N. climate change programs and use the money to fix America's water and environmental infrastructure.
MON: De nuevo, pobre planeta.
Additionally, on the first day, I will take the following five actions to restore security and the constitutional rule of law:
* FIRST, cancel every unconstitutional executive action, memorandum and order issued by President Obama
The president can revoke President Obama’s executive action in 2012 that created an immigration program known as DACA, Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals. This policy allows certain immigrants in the U.S. illegally who were brought to the country as kids to receive protection from deportation and work permits. As of June 30, there have been 1.3 million cases approved.
It’s uncertain whether Trump will allow the existing DACA permits to expire on their own or dissolve them the day he signs the order. In either case, the young immigrants will lose their protected status and be eligible for deportation.

MON: Indirectamente nos perjudica ya que perjudica a cientos de miles de compatriotas, pero también de otros países. Será una medida muy impopular que causará muchas víctimas de ambos lados.
* SECOND, begin the process of selecting a replacement for Justice Scalia from one of the 20 judges on my list, who will uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States
Actually, there are two lists Trump released during the campaign, totaling 21 names, including state as well as federal judges, and one U.S. senator, Mike Lee of Utah, who rejected the idea at the time and never endorsed Trump.
Two days after the election, a quick survey of individuals who normally would be involved in the Supreme Court selection process for an incoming Republican president produced a remarkable lack of information. Individuals involved in the past said this time they had “no idea” who was doing this for Trump and had not been consulted.
The lists produced during the campaign were generated in large part by the conservative Heritage Foundation, and the ideology represented by those potential nominees ranges from very conservative to even more conservative. There are some common themes, however. A general hostility to claims of “reproductive freedom,” from abortion to contraception; a hostility to government regulations, ranging from rules aimed at protecting the environment from coal-fired utilities to rules limiting access to guns. All of these are consistent with positions taken by Trump during the campaign. Some of the listed judges, however, have taken anti-gay-rights positions that Trump stayed away from in the campaign.
It is not entirely clear at this point whether Trump will actually pick someone from his two campaign lists or might go outside those lists. And there is some effort to get him to consider conservative judges and lawyers who are not on the lists. Among them: Paul Clement, the former George W. Bush solicitor general, who has argued 75 cases in the Supreme Court, including some of the most important conservative challenges to liberal Obama administration policies; Brett Kavanaugh, a highly respected federal judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia; and Jeffrey Sutton, of the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals, based in Ohio, who was also one of the late Justice Antonin Scalia’s favorite law clerks.
Nina Totenberg NPR Legal Affairs Correspondent
MON: Lo peor de lo peor. Será inimaginable el daño que cause a la libertad individual, a las mujeres, a las minorías y a la propia población. De nuevo al viejo Oeste donde la ley de la pistola será lo que rija. Pobre Estados Unidos y todos los que deseamos tener un mundo mejor.
* THIRD, cancel all federal funding to Sanctuary Cities.
Sanctuary cities are American cities that have policies protecting immigrants in the country illegally from federal immigration law, such as restricting police from turning them over to federal agents. Trump has not said which federal funds would be withheld from sanctuary cities. A few of these cities are Seattle, Los Angeles, Chicago, Miami and Austin, Texas.
John Burnett NPR Southwest Correspondent/Covers Immigration
MON: Esto no será tan fácil de implementar. Las ciudades son en su mayor parte, zonas de fuerte población latina. Se resistirán por la pérdida de apoyo en las próximas elecciones. Trump puede hacerlo y muchos compatriotas saldrán perjudicados, eso afectará a las economías de estas ciudades. Muchas ciudades, incluyendo a NY, se han declarado abiertamente opositoras a esta medida.
* FOURTH, begin removing the more than 2 million criminal illegal immigrants from the country and cancel visas to foreign countries that won't take them back
Trump has vowed to expand the definition of “criminal alien,” for example, to include immigrants in the U.S. illegally who are convicted of drunken driving. Without the approval of Congress, a President Trump could instruct his immigration agents to round up every immigrant convicted of a crime and deport them all. There are currently 23 countries considered “recalcitrant” by ICE because they will not accept criminal aliens sent home from the U.S. -- among them Afghanistan, Cuba, Iran and Zimbabwe. Trump could instruct his State Department to withhold visas for the citizens of these countries unless they agree to accept their deportees.
John Burnett NPR Southwest Correspondent/Covers Immigration
MON: Nos afecta porque nos devolverán a muchísimos compatriotas, pero no todos son nuestros. El de cancelar la visa no nos impacta en absoluto. México no está en esa lista de países de la lista de recalcitrantes.
* FIFTH, suspend immigration from terror-prone regions where vetting cannot safely occur. All vetting of people coming into our country will be considered extreme vetting.
MON: México no está entre esos países, por lo menos por ahora. Esto afecta a todo el mundo, pero es su derecho.
Next, I will work with Congress to introduce the following broader legislative measures and fight for their passage within the first 100 days of my Administration:
1. Middle Class Tax Relief And Simplification Act. An economic plan designed to grow the economy 4% per year and create at least 25 million new jobs through massive tax reduction and simplification, in combination with trade reform, regulatory relief, and lifting the restrictions on American energy. The largest tax reductions are for the middle class. A middle-class family with 2 children will get a 35% tax cut. The current number of brackets will be reduced from 7 to 3, and tax forms will likewise be greatly simplified. The business rate will be lowered from 35 to 15 percent, and the trillions of dollars of American corporate money overseas can now be brought back at a 10 percent rate.
Trump’s tax plan would cut income tax rates while capping deductions for the wealthy. He would also reduce the business tax rate to 15 percent and eliminate the estate tax. Workers at every income level would enjoy lower taxes under Trump’s plan, but the biggest beneficiaries by far are the very wealthy. Estimates from the Tax Policy Center and the Tax Foundation estimate that the top 1 percent of income households would see their after-tax incomes rise by 10.2 to 13 percent under Trump’s plan, while “middle income” households -- those from the 40th to the 60th percentile -- would see an increase of 1.3 to 1.8 percent. Tax savings at all levels could be higher from economic growth, but the wealthy still see the biggest bump.
Scott Horsley NPR White House Correspondent
MON: No nos afecta en absoluto. Afectará al pueblo americano, especialmente a los de menos recursos. De nuevo, una medida elitista.
2. End The Offshoring Act. Establishes tariffs to discourage companies from laying off their workers in order to relocate in other countries and ship their products back to the U.S. tax-free.
MON: Si se implementa nos afectará, todo dependerá de los beneficios que obtengan las empresas si optan por cerrar sus plantas en USA y trasladarse a México. Yo creo que nosotros haríamos o deberíamos hacer lo mismo, tratando de defender nuestras fuentes de trabajo. Una cosa es castigar a una empresa y otra es premiarla por cerrar sus plantas en el país.
3. American Energy & Infrastructure Act. Leverages public-private partnerships, and private investments through tax incentives, to spur $1 trillion in infrastructure investment over 10 years. It is revenue neutral.
MON: Gran oportunidad para los Mexicanos tanto para las empresas como para las personas que puedan y quieran colaborar en ese proyecto. La pregunta sería ¿y de dónde obtendrá los fondos? Esto nos beneficia si sabemos actuar.
4. School Choice And Education Opportunity Act. Redirects education dollars to give parents the right to send their kid to the public, private, charter, magnet, religious or home school of their choice. Ends common core, brings education supervision to local communities. It expands vocational and technical education, and make 2 and 4-year college more affordable.
The big question surrounding Trump’s school choice plan is this: How will he pay for it? Not with new money, he has been clear, but “redirects education dollars” is vague. The fact is, much of the money the U.S. government spends in schools goes to districts that serve low-income, at-risk students. Under Trump’s plan, at least some of these so-called Title I dollars would likely end up going to more affluent districts or leaving the public system entirely.
Here’s the other headline in this graph: “Ends common core.” Learning standards, including the Common Core, are adopted (and replaced) at the state level, and the new federal education law, ESSA, will make it very difficult for Trump to change that. Here’s why. He could try to use federal dollars to push states away from the Common Core, but, again, the new law is clear about the government’s right/ability to do such pushing: It can’t. For more unpacking of Trump’s education plan, check this out.
Cory Turner NPR Education Senior Editor
MON: Medida populista que difícilmente se llevara a cabo a un nivel nacional. No nos afecta.
5. Repeal and Replace Obamacare Act. Fully repeals Obamacare and replaces it with Health Savings Accounts, the ability to purchase health insurance across state lines, and let states manage Medicaid funds. Reforms will also include cutting the red tape at the FDA: there are over 4,000 drugs awaiting approval, and we especially want to speed the approval of life-saving medications.
The GOP Congress has already demonstrated its willingness to repeal the insurance tax subsidies and Medicaid expansion portions of the Affordable Care Act, along with the requirement that all Americans have health insurance, using a fast-track legislative maneuver known as “reconciliation” that prevents a Democratic filibuster. President Obama vetoed that measure, but President-elect Trump would presumably sign it. The Congressional Budget Office predicts that could strip health insurance coverage from more than 20 million people -- although the change would most likely be phased in over a couple of years. Trump’s replacement plan is less clear. Health savings accounts would allow more people to buy insurance with pre-tax dollars, and selling insurance across state lines might increase competition and reduce prices. But coverage will very likely remain out of reach for many. The requirement that insurance companies provide coverage to people with pre-existing conditions cannot be repealed through reconciliation. But preserving that requirement without the individual mandate to purchase insurance could create a costly situation in which people wait until they’re sick to buy coverage.
Scott Horsley NPR White House Correspondent
MON: No nos afecta ni nos beneficia. Trump no tiene un programa para lograr este remplazo.
6. Affordable Childcare and Eldercare Act. Allows Americans to deduct childcare and elder care from their taxes, incentivizes employers to provide on-side childcare services, and creates tax-free Dependent Care Savings Accounts for both young and elderly dependents, with matching contributions for low-income families.
MON: Si tan solo no hubiera que pagarlo sería fabulosos. No nos afecta.
7. End Illegal Immigration Act Fully - funds the construction of a wall on our southern border with the full understanding that the country Mexico will be reimbursing the United States for the full cost of such wall; establishes a 2-year mandatory minimum federal prison sentence for illegally re-entering the U.S. after a previous deportation, and a 5-year mandatory minimum for illegally re-entering for those with felony convictions, multiple misdemeanor convictions or two or more prior deportations; also reforms visa rules to enhance penalties for overstaying and to ensure open jobs are offered to American workers first.
Mexico’s president made it clear to President-elect Trump when they met this summer that his government is not willing to finance a border wall. At one point, Trump suggested the wall might be financed by taxing money that Mexican citizens working in the U.S. send home.
Scott Horsley NPR White House Correspondent
Trump’s estimate of how many immigrants have criminal records exceeds what others have found. About 820,000 people in the U.S. illegally have criminal convictions, according to the nonpartisan Migration Policy Institute, a group that is funded by Fortune 500 companies, major foundations and the U.S. and more than a dozen foreign governments
MON: De acuerdo a las últimas noticias Trump y su equipo han puesto la muralla en menor prioridad para iniciar las actividades y de momento ha dicho:
"Trump backed away on Sunday from his promise to build a wall on the U.S.-Mexican border, saying some areas could instead be "fencing," …."
Trump, whose pledge to force Mexico to pay for a border wall was a centerpiece of his White House, said in "certain areas" he would accept fencing instead of a brick-and-mortar wall, according to excerpts of his interview with the CBS program "60 Minutes."
Ryan, who like Priebus is from Wisconsin and will play a key role in getting Trump's agenda through the Republican-led Congress, on Sunday backed away from Trump's promise during the campaign of a "deportation force" to round up and deport immigrants in the country illegally.
"We are not planning on erecting a deportation force. Donald Trump's not planning on that," Ryan told CNN's "State of the Union" program. "I think we should put people's minds at ease. That is not what our focus is. That is not what we're focused on. We're focused on securing the border."
Kevin McCarthy, the No. 2 House Republican, said on "Fox News Sunday" the wall with Mexico could in parts be a "virtual" wall patrolled by drones.

Total, iniciará la muralla que nunca acabará y solo serán parches a la ya existente. Como dijo Shakespeare : “Much Ado About Nothing” o mucho ruido y pocas nueces. Por lo tanto si prometió una muralla pues que la entregue o si no HAY PAGO.
8. Restoring Community Safety Act. Reduces surging crime, drugs and violence by creating a Task Force On Violent Crime and increasing funding for programs that train and assist local police; increases resources for federal law enforcement agencies and federal prosecutors to dismantle criminal gangs and put violent offenders behind bars.
Violent crime rose slightly in 2015 and murders increased nearly 11 percent according to the FBI data but criminologists report the nation is safer now than 45, 25 or even 10 years ago.
In 2014, the Obama Justice Department launched the “violence reduction network,” matching troubled cities with a law enforcement analyst and a federal grant official. The program now operates in about 10 cities including Camden, N.J.; Chicago; Detroit and Flint, Mich.; Little Rock, Ark.; Newark, N.J.; Compton, Oakland and Richmond, Calif.; and West Memphis, Ark. It’s not clear whether Trump’s team wants to expand on this idea or scrap it in favor of something else.
The Justice Department traditionally funds training programs for local police and in recent years has offered federal funds to pay for body cameras and bulletproof vests. In a time of tight federal budgets, a popular Bill Clinton-era program that helps localities pay the salaries of police officers for a set time frame has been scaled back somewhat.
In 2016, the Justice Department allocated approximately $119 million to fund the COPS Hiring Program, which enables law enforcement agencies to hire or rehire career law enforcement officers and increase their community policing capacity and crime prevention efforts. Some $12 million has gone to community policing and collaborative reform grants in 2016 and another $12 million is funding the 2016 COPS Anti-Heroin Task Force Program and COPS Anti-Methamphetamine Program grants to state law enforcement agencies.
Most law enforcement in the U.S. remains the responsibility of state and local authorities.
Carrie Johnson NPR Justice Correspondent
MON: Este es un problema totalmente interno y ellos deberán decidir que es lo que más les conviene. No nos afecta.
9. Restoring National Security Act. Rebuilds our military by eliminating the defense sequester and expanding military investment; provides Veterans with the ability to receive public VA treatment or attend the private doctor of their choice; protects our vital infrastructure from cyber-attack; establishes new screening procedures for immigration to ensure those who are admitted to our country support our people and our values.
Trump’s defense agenda as described here is hugely ambitious. Republicans and Democrats have warred over the 2011 Budget Control Act, which imposed automatic, across-the-board spending restrictions, since it was first passed. Repealing it even with Republican majorities in both houses of Congress would require new consensus about exempting both defense and nondefense spending from the restrictions, as well as an agreement about how to pay for any new spending that Trump proposes. His VA proposal sounds a lot like the Veterans Choice program that Congress enacted after high-profile VA scandals in 2014, one that enables veterans to go outside the VA system. But as NPR’s Quil Lawrence has reported, even that “fix” now is in need of a new fix.
Phil Ewing NPR National Security Editor
MON: Más dinero que tirarán por el caño siempre y cuando se lo aprueben. No es nuestro problema.
10. Clean up Corruption in Washington Act. Enacts new ethics reforms to Drain the Swamp and reduce the corrupting influence of special interests on our politics.
MON: Si solo logra llevar a cabo este programa y logra eliminar la corrupción del gobierno habría que invitarlo a que nos muestre como lo hizo y de inmediato copiarlo y ponerlo en acción. Este sería de gran beneficio para nuestro país y para muchos otros países.
On November 8th, Americans will be voting for this 100-day plan to restore prosperity to our economy, security to our communities, and honesty to our government.
This is my pledge to you.
DONALD TRUMP
De nuevo, mexicanos no es momento de entrar en pánico, ni tampoco que cómo cabras en una cristalería empecemos a romper los vasos. Es momento de actuar, es momento de aceptar el cambio, es momento de innovar y sobre todo es momento de estar todos juntos ante este reto, que es real, peligroso, pero que lo deberemos superar.
¿Estás de acuerdo conmigo?
