Rep. Cuellar Announces $3 Million in Federal Funding to Support Border Security in Starr County U.S. Congressman Henry Cuellar (TX-28) announced $3,000,000 in federal funds to support border security in Starr County. The money will be used by the Starr County Sheriff’s Office to pay for overtime hours, operating expenses, and new equipment— resources that are necessary for the security of the community.

The $3,000,000 is an increase of $608,000 from 2021.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Operation Stonegarden Grant Program (OPSG) provides funding to law enforcement agencies with the objective of enhancing border security. Up to $90,000,000 is available in total OPSG funding for FY2022, including $39,875,000 for the state of Texas. OPSG funds are allocated based on the risk to the security of the border.

“Every year, the resources provided by the Stonegarden Program assist our local law enforcement in their efforts to protect our border communities.

By providing new, updated equipment and more man power, these funds allow our local law enforcement to carry out the necessary operations to enhance security along our southern border—helping us fight the war on drugs and human trafficking,” said Congressman Cuellar. “Since

2008, I have secured nearly $25 million in Operation Stonegarden funds for Starr County and delivered over $142 million in total OPSG funding for TX28. As a member of the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Homeland Security, I will continue to provide the necessary funding our local law enforcement agencies require to keep our South Texas communities safe and secure.”

“I would like to thank Congressman Henry Cuellar and the federal government for providing Starr County with Operation Stonegarden funds that allow us to enhance our community’s security. We work jointly with our federal, state and local partners to keep our

community safe. These dollars go a long way towards our collaborative efforts to secure the U.S.- Mexican Border,” said Starr County Sheriff Rene “Orta” Fuentes.

Since 2008, Starr County has received $24,966,193 in Operation Stone Garden Funding. This funding has allowed the county to cover extraordinary expenses incurred to reinforce border security.

Misa de Primer Aniversario En Memoria de

Alberto Morin Jr. 08/09/1954 † 09/16/2021

Pensé en ti con amor hoy pero no es nada nuevo, pensé en ti ayer y los días antes también. Pienso en ti en silencio y pronuncio tu nombre. Todo lo que tengo son recuerdos y tu imagen en un marco, tu memoria son mis recuerdos de los que nunca me separo. Dios te tiene a su lado y yo te tengo en mi corazón. No fueron pronunciadas palabras de despedida, no hubo tiempo para decir adiós, te fuiste antes de que me diera cuenta y sólo Dios sabe por qué. Si el amor te podría haber salvado habrías vivido para siempre. Dios concédeme la serenidad para aceptar las cosas que no puedo cambiar, valor para cambiar aquellas que puedo, y sabiduría para reconocer la diferencia. Amén

Se celebrara una misa el viernes 16 de Septiembre a las 12:00 p.m. en la Iglesia Inmaculada Concepción en Rio Grande City, Texas

Local Law Enforcement Attend Training on Juvenile Law at Roma ISD NOVENA “Miraculous Prayer” Dear Sacred Heart of Jesus, in the past I have asked for favors. This time I ask you this very special one (mention favor). Take it, Dear Jesus, and place it within your own heart, where your Father sees it. Then, in your merciful eyes it will become your favor, not mine.

Amen.

Say this prayer for three days, promise publication and favor will be granted.

Never known to fail.

A. P. R.

The Roma ISD Police Department held a regional safety meeting, bringing in a presenter from The Texas Attorney General’s Office who provided updates on issues related to juvenile law. Thank you to Chief Benjamin Gonzalez for his leadership in educating our local law enforcement!

TMA Physicians’ Advice: Get Your Medical Information Now, in Case of Emergency As flooding hit parts of Texas and new tropical systems churn, physicians have advice for all Texas patients: Obtain a copy of your relevant medical information now, in case of an emergency later. Now, entering peak hurricane season, the Texas Medical Association (TMA) recommends everyone get a copy of their vital personal medical

information, including current prescriptions.

“I think it is wise for every person – child or adult – to have their own medical information, including a current list of any medications they are taking,” said Gary W. Floyd, MD, TMA president. “Such information can be very helpful, if not critical, if the patient is displaced due to a

natural disaster or public health emergency situation.”

Texans and patients from neighboring states displaced from hurricanes like Harvey, Rita, and Katrina understand the burden of evacuating their homes and communities for an extended time, unable to refill necessary prescription medicines in their new temporary location.

REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS FOR PROFESSIONAL INDEPENDENT AUDIT SERVICES The Starr County Appraisal District is requesting proposals for the audit of its financial reports for the calendar year 2022 plus annual renewals for a maximum of three years. Proposals are to be submitted with an accompanying Proposal Form and accompanying instructions to Proposers. Proposal documents may be obtained during normal office hours from Marissa Longoria, Finance Director, Starr County Appraisal District, at the appraisal district’s office located on 100 NM FM 3167, Ste 300, Rio Grande City, Texas 78582. Audit proposals are to be submitted or dropped off in a sealed envelope on or before 2:00 p.m., October 3, 2022 to the following address:

Starr County Appraisal District 100 N FM 3167, Ste 300 Rio Grande City, Texas 78582 956-487-5613 The Board of Directors will review all proposals submitted in a timely manner and contract will be awarded on October 4, 2022 at noon at their regular meeting in same address. If you have any questions, please contact the appraisal district office at the above address and telephone number.

History shows it is common for as many as 1 million people to evacuate their homes in advance of a major storm, and many don’t know how long they will be gone. Presumably none of the Hurricane Katrina evacuees fleeing the 2005 storm imagined their relocation would be permanent, for example, yet 30,000 people displaced by that storm ultimately put down roots in Houston, according to one report.

Complicating matters, natural disasters have destroyed physician practices too, so even patients who were not displaced could not access their medical information.

The easiest way to obtain this information is to access records through the physician’s office’s online patient portal, which allows you to download and save or print your medical record summary. TMA surveys indicate most Texas doctors (89%) report having electronic medical records.

Dr. Floyd said most patients can help themselves by having a list of their medications, notes on any regular health monitoring needed, a list of any allergies, and an updated vaccination record with dates. Some patients also would benefit from knowing their tuberculosis test results (if any), and a list of recent procedures, results, and treatments like cardiac tests and any treatment schedule.

“You never know when you might need this vital information, so we recommend acting now to have it on hand before an emergency arises,” Dr. Floyd said.

The Atlantic Ocean hurricane season runs June 1 through Nov. 30, with the typical peak occurring in September.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration predicts a 65% chance of an above-normal hurricane season, with as many as 21 named storms likely, of which six to 10 could become hurricanes.

TMA is the largest state medical society in the nation, representing more than 56,000 physician and medical student members. It is located in Austin and has 110 component county medical societies around the state. TMA’s key objective since 1853 is to improve the health of all Texans.
