VENEZUELA
Chavez says new tumor was cancerous
55 Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez revealed on
television that the recently removed tumor was
the same type of cancer he had last year.
CARACAS — (AP) —
Venezuelan President Hugo
Chavez revealed Sunday
that a tumor recently re-
moved from his pelvic re-
gion was of the same type of
cancer as a baseball -sized
growth extracted from that
part of his body about seven
months ago
In his first TV appear-
ance in nine days, Chavez
said the surgery and follow-
up tests showed the tumor
was "a recurrence of the ini-
tially diagnosed cancer."
He said "the tumor was
totally extracted" and noted
"the absence of lesions sug-
gestive of cancer neither lo-
cally, neither in nearby or-
gans, neither far away ...nei-
ther metastasis, none of this
thanks to God, to the diag-
nosis and rapid
intervention."
The 57 -year -old president
said he would spend several
weeks recovering and then
"we are gomg to do radia-
tion treatment in the area
without discarding other
treatment options"
"There isn't fever nor any
other sign neither infection,
hemorrhage," he said. He
called the post -surgery heal-
ing"perfect in relation to the
time that's passed, and we
are already doing physical
therapy"
Chavez spoke firmly in

nied by various government

ministers and older brother
Adan Chavez. The president
said his recuperation has
been "open, progressive and
rapid" in the footage aired
Sunday in Venezuela
Chavez said "still it hasn't
been six days because the
operation ended on the
night of last Sunday" He
verified the date of the re-
cording by displaying a Sat-
urday copy of the Cuban
government newspaper
Gramm and a similar copy
of the Venezuelan govern-
ment paper Correo del
Orinoco
"We are very optimistic,"
he said while seated at an

He has said doctors found
the growth in the same pel-
vic area where a malignant,
baseball -sized tumor was
extracted in June 2011 He
underwent several weeks of
radiation treatment in 2011
Chavez flew to Cuba for
his most recent surgery on
Feb. 24, and his absence
from the public spotlight
since then has sparked spec-
ulation about his health
With no one taking over
his duties in Venezuela,
Chavez issued instructions
to government ministers in
the footage and approved
the budgets of various state-
owned companies
As he has done in recent
weeks, Chavez defended
Syrian President Bashar Al-
Assad, who has tried to vio-
lently crush a popular revolt
in much of the Middle East-
ern country

Colombia.
But the climate has since
changed A new policy start-
ed under the Obama admin-
istration last summer gives
more leniency when it
comes to undocumented
immigrants like Gomez and
Pelaez.
The policy lessened the
focus on undocumented im-
migrants with no criminal
record or who are caring for
a sick child, who have been
victims of domestic vio-
lence or crime or who ar-
rived in the country as
children
Instead it turned the focus
on the detention and depor-
tation of dangerous foreign
criminals and foreigners
deemed threats to national
security
Those undocumented
immigrants, like Pelaez,
however, still must go
through legal proceedings.

is not filed, said Pelaez's at-
torney, Jack Wallace "If it's
filed within 30 days, she
can't be deported any-
where?' He plans to file the
appeal next week, though he
didn't disclose on what
grounds.
Wallace said he did not
seek leniency under the new
policy — called prosecuto-
rial discretion —because he
believes it's best for those
with no rhanre of winning
approval to stay in the coun-
try. "Daniels has a good
chance, if we win in court in
Washington, to stay legally
in the United States," he
said
The deportation process
can drag on for years, with
all appeals from 59 immigra-
tion courts around the coun-
try going to Washington,

They have created a Face -

Thursday afternoon, that
they aim to send to the US
House of Representatives
They have made posters and

ers encouraging students to
J01/1 Friday's protest.
"We really are a family,"
said Emily Sell, a 17 -year -old

loss that's felt not only by me
but all of her friends and

The news of the judge's
order was "devastating,"
said Larry Jurrist, who leads
the school's IB piug.am and
teaches Pelaez in advanced
Spanish "It's shocking to
think that someone you've
known for four years is sud-
denly going to be shipped

When students started
the online petition, Jurrist
signed it and posted it on his
Facebook page. "Not only
did a tremendous amount of

it, they shared it, and it's
spread around tremendous-
ly, not just through me, but
everyone else who's doing

For a decade, unniigrants'
rights groups have pushed
the DREAM Act, a federal
proposal that would allow
undocumented children to
obtain permanent residen-
cy, either by enrolling in col-
lege or serving in the mili-
tary. The bill has been crit-
icized for promoting illegal
immigration — and has nev-
er been signed into law
According to estimates by
the Urban Institute, 192,000
students in Florida would
benefit from the DREAM
Act That means they came
to the United States when
they were younger than 16,
have lived in the country for
more than five years and
have graduated from a Flori-
da high school
Last month in the Florida
Legislature, efforts to let un-
documented students pay
in -state tuition were shot
down.
Under current state law,
undocumented students
must pay out-of-state tu-
ition, which is nearly three
times higher than the rates
for Florida residents.
Juan Rodriguez, the youth
coordinator with the Florida
Immigrant Coalition, said
it's important for students to
reach out to their
community.
"They need to create their
network of trusted friends
that they can share their sto-
ry with or teachers they can
trust," he said.
"We understand there's a
lot of fear There's more fear
on the part of the parents
The majority of cases of stu-
dents that have been
stopped, it's been people
whose community has been
aware of their story and do
advocacy for them."
Pelaez said she's grateful
for the rally at her school
"I am annoyed and humil-
iated by all of this; I don't
feel I deserve this," she said
"Criminals have more rights
right now than I do — that's
humiliating. I'm a good per-
son, I know I am"

The House passed
a sweeping
anti -abortion bill, but
its prospects in the
Senate were
uncertain
BY KATIE SANDERS
Herald/times Tallahassee
Bureau
TALLAHASSEE —
Women seeking an abor-
tion would first have to
wait 24 hours and new
clinics would be physi-
cian -owned as part of a
sweeping anti -abortion
measure passed by the
House on Thursday
Passage of HB 277 was
unsurprising in the con-
servative -dominated
House, though a handful
of lawmakers from both
sides broke party lines in
the 78-33 vote "This isn't
an insidious war against
women," said Rep James
Grant, 12 -Tampa "It's a
righteous war for
children."
The proposal faces a
steep hurdle in the Sen-
ate, where its companion
(SB 290) is stuck in com-
mittees and is not sched-
uled to be considered
again. Senate leaders can
still revive the bill, but
Senate President Mike
Haridopolos sounded
lukewarm to the idea
when asked by reporters.
"If I believe we have
the time to dedicate to
that issue, I'm willing to
take a look at it," he said
"But at this point, it's still
at the second committee
of reference "
Debate on Thursday
picked up where it left off
at 11 p.m. Wednesday
with House Democrats
criticizing the proposal
of Rep Rachel Burgin, R -
Riverview
Rep Elaine Schwartz,
D -Hollywood, told Bur-
gin on Thursday, "You
have done a masterful job
defending something
that I truly think is
indefensible"
Aside from the waiting
period and ownership re-
quirements for new clin-
ics — which targets
Planned Parenthood —
the bill would require
physicians to describe
the steps that could be
painful to a fetus 20
weeks or older, though
the idea of fetal pain is of
continuing debate
among scientists
A physician also
would have to offer to ad-
minister anesthesia to
the fetus.
Physicians also would
take three hours of ethics
training each year, a re-
quirement Democrats
considered unfair along
with the physician -own-
ership provision.
This is not standard
practice, said Rep Mark
Pafford, D -West Palm
Beach. "One example of
this is our governor, who
has owned numerous
hospitals and isn't a phy-
sician," he said
Rep Ronald 'Doc' Re-
nuart, R-Ponte Vedra
Beach, countered by say-
ing the bill provides "rea-
sonable restrictions on
the business of abortion,"
and the requirement that
clinics be wholly owned
by physicians trained in
abortion procedures "en-
sures accountability"
Some questioned a
clause that the Agency
for Health Care Adminis-
tration, which regulates
abortion clinics, collect
data of each procedure,
including patient age,
gestational age, race,
marital status, number of
previous live births,
number of previous
abortions and home-
town.
The website would be
submitted to the federal
government and posted
