    Mexico plans aid for Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria

    Mexico plans aid for Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria More

    MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Suffering itself after two major earthquakes last month, Mexico plans to send aid including water and electricity experts to Puerto Rico, a U.S. territory reeling from the devastation of Hurricane Maria.


    The gesture, announced by the Mexican government on Wednesday, follows an awkward series of exchanges between Mexico and the United States over emergency aid in recent weeks.


    Mexico plans to send some 30 tons of bottled water, mosquito repellent and specialists in power generation, transmission and distribution from the state power utility, Mexico's foreign ministry said in a statement.


    The Federal Electricity Commission (CFE) team would work to mitigate the damage and assist in restoring power supply after Maria, the ministry said.

    The strongest hurricane to hit Puerto Rico in nearly 90 years, Maria caused at least 34 deaths and inflicted widespread damage to homes and infrastructure, including wiping out power across the Caribbean island.

    Mexico has had strained relations with its northern neighbor since U.S. President Donald Trump took office in January, promising to build a wall along the U.S. southern border to keep out illegal immigrants and drugs.


    Mexico had planned to send material assistance to the United States after Hurricane Harvey, which hit Texas in late August, but later withdrew the offer after the first of the two quakes struck southern Mexico in early September.


    Trump was criticized in Mexico for the time he took to offer condolences to his Mexican counterpart, Enrique Pena Nieto, over the first quake, which killed at least 98 people. The U.S. president later said he had been unable to reach Pena Nieto because of poor cellphone reception.


    Ironically, after Maria struck Puerto Rico, the local cellphone operator of Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim proved more reliable than some U.S. competitors during the early days of the communications outage across the island of 3.4 million people.

    I hope everyone on their way here from Puerto Rico has a passport and are vetted as to who they really are.

    Another way for Mexico to send people here to invade our country with FAKE passports and documents.

    Puerto Ricans are American citizens and do not need a passport to fly anywhere in the United States. Like all other American citizens they need a government ID with their picture on it to pass thru T.S.A. checkpoints. It's like flying from New York to Fla.

    Will travelers from U.S. territories need to present a passport to enter the United States?

    U.S. Citizens and Lawful Permanent Residents (LPR's) who travel directly between parts of the United States, which includes Guam, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, American Samoa, Swains Island and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI), without touching at a foreign port or place, are not required to present a valid U.S. Passport or U.S. Green Card.
    However, it is recommended that travelers bring a government issued photo ID and copy of birth certificate.

    It also is recommended that you carry proof of your LPR status at all times in the event you are asked to prove your status. This may be in the form of a green card or passport.

    Hawaii is a U.S. state and therefore passport documentation requirements for U.S. citizens and LPR's do not apply.
    Entry requirements for non-U.S. citizens are the same as for entering the United States from any foreign destination. Upon departure, a passport is required for all but U.S. citizens.

    Questions about requirements for domestic travel should be directed to Transportation Security Administration (TSA). TSA can be reached at 1-866-289-9673.

    How do we know non-citizens are not posing as Puerto Rican's or others travelling from these territories.

    That needs to change since they are not connected to the mainland.

    Too many fake documents. I do not want any more illegals, Haitian's or other non-citizens slithering their way into our country.
