The tremendous increase in the influx of immigrants has brought us to a breaking point.  Even though immigration is not our responsibility, the City of McAllen has done what was necessary to keep both the immigrants and our community safe.  To date we have succeeded.  However, the increase in the number of immigrants crossing, the increase in positivity rate of COVID within the immigrants, and the Governor’s order restricting travel assistance, has multiplied our city’s problems.      Today I signed a Disaster Declaration because of what we are now facing, something we did not face just two weeks ago.   We ask for your prayers.   God help McAllen.

Javier Villalobos

McAllen Mayor
