00:00A pleasant Monday afternoon to all.

00:08I am William Thio and this is PTV News Now.

00:11We begin this afternoon's stories with the government directives raising daily wages

00:16of typical workers in the agriculture, non-agriculture, retail and service sectors have come few and

00:24far in between, hence a shared feeling among all of them that they are just working their

00:29lives away with no end in sight.

00:32Well for those aforementioned and marginalized workers trying to eke out a living in the

00:37Calabarzon, a modicum of relief perhaps with the announcement by the Regional Tripartite

00:42Wages and Productivity Board of wage order 4A-21 upgrading the daily wages of Calabarzon

00:51workers in the agriculture, non-agriculture and those in the retail and service sectors

00:57with no more than 10 workers in the payroll by $21 and up to $75.

01:05Non-agriculture workers based in component cities or 4th, 5th and 6th class municipalities

01:10will receive their pay raises in two trenches beginning September 30 for the first in April

01:16next year and for the second one.

01:18Meanwhile, the pay raise of agriculture workers is scheduled for the end of September this

01:23year for the first one and on April the 1st next year for the second.

01:29All other workers will receive theirs beginning and September this year.

01:34On the other hand, the Regional Tripartite and Wages Productivity Board also announced

01:39wage order number RO7-25 granting a daily minimum wage increase of up to 33 up to 43

01:49pesos in the provinces of Region 7 such as the daily minimum wages in the region is

01:54raised to 501 pesos for Class A workers from 458 to 468, 463 for Class B workers from 425

02:07pesos and 430 pesos and 553 for Class C workers from 415 to 420 pesos.

02:16The wage order kicks in or takes effect on October 2 next month.

02:23And with less than two months remaining before the America's electorate of some 200 million

02:29registered voters head to the polls to choose its next president and vice president, yet

02:34another act of political violence on the life of former President Donald Trump has been

02:39averted thanks to the eagle eyes of Trump's security and the Secret Service guarding him

02:45while he played on a Sunday at his golf course in West Palm Beach.

02:50Barely two months have passed since that fateful day and weekend in a rural town in Pennsylvania

02:56where former President Donald J. Trump came millimeters away from being felled by an assassin's

03:02bullet that had just grazed his right ear.

03:05This time another threat on his life came nowhere close with the alleged assassin suspect

03:11some 500 yards away and unable to fire his AK-47 looking rifle as members of the Secret

03:18Service spotted the barrel of his rifle from afar and then fired preemptively to send him

03:23scurrying away and fleeing the site.

03:26Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, a construction worker from North Carolina, was arrested after the

03:32black Nissan truck he drove was identified by an eyewitness who reported it to the local

03:38authorities in West Palm Beach, Florida.

03:42President Joe Biden expressed relief after hearing the news of Trump being safe on this

03:46foiled attempt on his life.

03:49Vice President Kamala Harris, for her part, said she is deeply disturbed on yet another

03:54assassination attempt on the life of her rival for the race to the White House.

04:01Immigration is among the top three issues for American voters in the November 2024 presidential.

04:07While Trump made a vow on mass deportations and Harris insisting to resurrect the bipartisan

04:13Bill Trump and his House allies effectively killed in the House floor, there are no specifics

04:19as of yet to a clear policy on both sides.

04:23The OA's immigration reporter Aline Barrios reports.

04:29Immigration was a big topic during the first presidential debate.

04:33While Vice President Kamala Harris didn't answer a question about the increased numbers

04:38of migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border, former President Donald Trump repeated his false

04:43claims about migrants and crime.

04:47Millions of people let in and all over the world, crime is down all over the world except

04:52here.

04:53Research shows immigrants are less likely to commit crimes than the U.S.-born people.

04:59But at his rallies, Trump maintains his hard line on immigration, promising to build on

05:06his previous efforts if reelected.

05:09If I win on day one, we will begin the largest deportation operation in American history.

05:15Immigration experts have questions.

05:18What exactly are we talking about here?

05:20Is it, you know, are there going to be police and immigration officers showing up at everyone's

05:25door and asking to see their papers?

05:27When Harris was asked about illegal crossings at the border, which surged under the Biden

05:33administration before falling back in recent months, she shifted the blame to Trump, noting

05:40he had Republicans in Congress kill a bipartisan immigration reform bill.

05:46And let me say that the United States Congress, including some of the most conservative members

05:51of the United States Senate, came up with a border security bill, which I supported.

05:57And that bill would have put 1,500 more border agents on the border.

06:02Experts stress that without action from Congress, real immigration reform is out of reach.

06:08Neither one of them talked about the importance of Congress.

06:10And I feel like there's only, you know, the president makes a huge difference.

06:15And we would, you know, there's a lot a president can do.

06:19But there also are limits to what a president can do.

06:21At an Arizona rally, Harris reminded the crowd that as president, she would sign an immigration

06:27bill.

06:28We know our immigration system is broken and we know what it takes to fix it.

06:36Comprehensive reform that includes strong border security and an earned pathway to citizenship.

06:48It is unlikely Harris and Trump will share the debate stage again.

06:53Voters will need to follow their immigration plans closely as they continue on the campaign

06:58trail.

06:59Aline Barrows, VOA News, Washington.

07:02And that is a wrap for this afternoon.

07:06Join us anew later this evening for the next set of breaking stories.

07:10Remember to stay connected by keeping it here for news you can count on.

07:14I am William Theo and thank you for watching PTV News Now.
