Good morning, this is El Paso Local Pulse for Sunday, December 14. We start with breaking news from downtown, where economic woes and immigration concerns are hitting our holiday shopping hard. KFOX reports businesses on El Paso Street, like Hector Chavez's El Paso Furniture and Style, saw nearly 50 percent less sales this season compared to last year. UTEP economics professor Tom Fullerton points to lost maquiladora jobs in Juarez, rising consumer debt, and health premium fears keeping shoppers away, especially from Mexico. Chavez urges visitors to come anyway, respecting the law while serving all.

Shifting to city hall updates, Congresswoman Veronica Escobar introduced the El Paso Air Traffic Control Tower Modernization Act to fund a much-needed upgrade at our airport, easing daily travel disruptions. Over in Juarez, just across the bridge, President Claudia Sheinbaum inaugurated the LIBRE Center for Women with Chihuahua Governor Maria Eugenia Campos, boosting support services that touch our binational community.

On public safety, El Paso County Constable Precinct Three deputies cleared unauthorized occupants from a vacant home in South-Central El Paso yesterday, with no injuries reported. At the airport, immigration detentions continue, including a recent DACA case, so travelers stay vigilant.

Sports fans, our UTEP Miners men's basketball team fell to Hawaii 66-61 last night in Honolulu, marking their fourth straight loss and a 3-6 record. Jamal West Jr. and Kaseem Watson scored 12 points each, but turnovers hurt. They host Norfolk State December 21 at the Don Haskins Center for the WestStar Bank Sun Bowl Invitational.

Job market shows promise with the new Dr. Xavier De La Torre Leader of Impact Scholarship, offering $2,000 yearly to college-bound high school seniors. Real estate stays steady, with West El Paso tax office closed temporarily due to backlog, so plan ahead for filings.

New business buzz includes PAM Health Rehabilitation Hospital's first Christmas tree lighting on Transmountain Road, drawing crowds for holiday cheer. Culturally, Centro De Salud Familiar La Fe hosts the 2025 Segundo Barrio Matachines Celebration Friday, perfect for family fun.

Weather today brings mild highs around 61 degrees under partly cloudy skies, no Arctic blast here unlike the northern US, so outdoor events like tree lightings go smoothly. Outlook stays dry through Tuesday.

For a feel-good story, ICU nurse Stephanie Eschriche rang the bell at The Hospitals of Providence Memorial Campus after beating melanoma, inspiring us all. Quick school nod: Local seniors, apply for that scholarship now.

Upcoming, catch the Matachines event and Miners game soon. Thanks for tuning in, listeners—subscribe for more. This has been El Paso Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates. This has been a Quiet Please production, for more check out quietplease.ai.
