Bordallo Crossing Fingers For Guam Buildup
The Guam Delegate to Congress Madeleine Bordallo is keeping her fingers crossed that there won't be any deep cuts to funding the Guam military buildup. The congresswoman was reacting to Senator Harry Reids decision to place the defense authorization bill that cuts Guam buildup funding on the session floor for a vote. Bordallo notes that although Reid has conceded to GOP demands, the defense authorization bill must still be voted on and even if it is passed by the senate it still must be reconciled with the house version of the defense spending bill. The house's version does not cut funding to ...
Bordallo: Guam Business Could Benefit from U.S. Trade
Congresswoman Madeleine Bordallo believes that Guam could benefit from the free trade agreement with Korea that Congress approved Wednesday night in Washington. In a release, the Congresswoman says that the U.S.-Korea Free Trade Agreement (KORUS FTA) is the most commercially significant free trade agreement since the ratification of the North American Free Trade Agreement and it is the first FTA with a North Asian partner. Under the agreement, nearly 95 percent of bilateral trade in industrial and consumer products would become duty free within 3 years, and most remaining tariffs would be ...

Bordallo today returned from a Congressional Delegation to Alaska, South Korea, Japan, Vietnam, Singapore, and Hawaii. The CODEL, led by House Armed Services Committee Chairman Mac Thornberry, met with key government officials and military leaders to discuss the U.S. regional posture, military-to-military cooperation, and ongoing challenges in the region, including North Korea and disputes in the South China Sea, as well as broader areas of cooperation such as maritime security, counter-terrorism efforts, trade, and climate change. The CODEL also participated in the International Institute for Strategic Studies’ Shangri-La Dialogue: The Asia Security Summit. During the CODEL, Congresswoman Bordallo stressed the importance of the United States maintaining a forward posture in the region to deter and swiftly respond to contingencies in the region.

Statement on President Trump’s Budget Proposal for Fiscal Year 2018 Washington, D.C. – Congresswoman Madeleine Z. Bordallo today issued the following statement regarding President Trump’s budget proposal for fiscal year 2018. President Trump’s FY18 budget proposal is detrimental to working families and would significantly slash health care, education, and job opportunities for millions of Americans. His proposal guts non-defense spending at every level of government and imposes harmful cuts to important programs like Medicaid, CHIP, student loans, environmental protection, coastal and ocean research and management, and small business assistance. Furthermore, deep cuts to the Department of State, USAID, and related programs are unacceptable and would withdraw the United States from our global leadership role, leaving populations around the world vulnerable and undermining our national security. In fact, these cuts in ‘soft power’ programs undermine our Indo-Asia-Pacific rebalance strategy. The President’s budget is particularly concernin |
Statement on Apparent Terrorist Attack at Resorts World Manila Washington, D.C. – Congresswoman Madeleine Z. Bordallo today issued the following statement on reports of an attack on Resorts World Manila. “I strongly condemn the apparent terrorist attack against Resorts World Manila. The hotel remains on lockdown while authorities work to bring the situation under control. My thoughts and prayers go out to all the guests, employees, and visitors of Resorts World Manila. I know that Resorts World Manila is a favorite location for many foreign visitors, including many from Guam, and my office stands ready to assist any constituents on Guam trying to contact their loved ones in Manila through the U.S. State Department. This senseless violence cannot continue.” Constituents who are not able to contact family members at Resorts World Manila may reach out to Congresswoman Bordallo’s District Office at 477-4272 for assistance to reach the U.S. State Department. |
Bordallo Discusses H-2B with Senior DHS Official Washington, D.C. – Congresswoman Madeleine Z. Bordallo recently met with U.S. Department of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary for Legislative Affairs Ben Cassidy. She raised the issue of the near 100% rate of H-2B denials that has been affecting Guam since early 2016, stressing the impact this has had on the workforce needed to support Guam’s economy. In particular, she noted the construction and health care industries are among the most urgently impacted, which could affect the hundreds of millions of dollars in military construction projects that are projected this year and next year. Since late 2015 the U.S. Customs and Immigrations Services has either denied or issued a request for evidence for nearly 100% of all applications for H-2B visas on Guam. This has reduced the number of H-2B workers to near zero, a loss of thousands of workers, including those used to support military construction projects and health care associated with the Marine Relocation to Guam.
