A house for deportees
Elvira Arellano inaugurates hostel in Tijuana

La Opinion
TIJUANA, Mexico .- From a few meters before reaching one could perceive the smell of tamales and punch warm; smell of festivity, since.
And it was not for less: yesterday afternoon, in the heart of Tijuana, the House opened its doors to women Refuge Elvira deported.
"This is a concern that we had long, because our first home was here a few years ago," said Gloria Saucedo, director of Hermandad Mexicana Transnational organization that through its various chapters in Southern California tops the initiative the creation of the Casa Elvira Refuge, named in honor of the activist Elvira Arellano.
"With what happened to Elvira we realised that many women come here, moms, housewives, who are suddenly alone in a city they do not know," he said recalling the deportation of Arellano last August. "The idea is that this house is open 24 hours a day so they have a place to get a bed, they may have calientita food, a bath and a telephone to communicate with his family."
CaĂ*a night when the Arellano, who traveled alone to be present at the event, cut the ribbon that officially opened the shelter that for the time being may provide shelter for between 14 and 20 people. The basic idea is to get women to come with or without children, although in the case of men who come with children also will have a space for them.
Micaela Saucedo, an activist of the border area Tijuana-San Diego for more than 40 years, will serve as director of the shelter. "This house is the dream of all of us, a place that supports women. Tijuana In many houses, but none do what really needs to be done, and we believe that ours will be an example," he said. "Today begins a new commitment for us to move forward with this house with a lot of dignity and a lot of work."

This was so poorly translated that I had trouble understanding what, exactly, they were attempting to say.
At one point it sounded like they were saying Elvira herself deported these women.
I try all day long to figure out what Spanish speaking people are attempting to write or say, trying to understand when the words are either wrong or in the wrong order or pronounced incorrectly, I just didn't have the patience to try to figure this out.

This is nice, as long as the ribbon-cutting is done in Mexico, and not on our side of the border. Perhaps they will expand their operations and provide incentives for their "refugees" to return home. I just hope this isn't a rest stop for illegals en route to the U.S. under the guise of being a refuge for women.

Did you guys see the poll?
Do you plan to change their place of residence to any anti-immigrant measure in your city or state?
(I THINK they are asking if you (illegal) would change where you live if an anti-ILLEGAL measure was enacted)

Ahhhh sounds like Elvira is actively looking to collect some "humanitarian" donations for a nice big, fat salary.
