The deal comes as @ElPasoTXGov City Council has for months delayed voting on a site for the voter-approved arena that in February was proposed as an amphitheater at Union Depot Downtown. elpasomatters.org/2024/04/28/nor…

Who should foot the bill for new growth in El Paso? The @ElPasoTXGov City Council next week will decide whether ratepayers or homebuilders will bear the burden of paying for new water & sewer infrastructure to sprawling neighborhoods. elpasomatters.org/2024/04/30/el-…

The much-anticipated total eclipse of the sun on Monday lasted all of two hours and 35 minutes in El Paso. It’ll be another 20 years before a total eclipse will be visible in the U.S. – in 2044. elpasomatters.org/2024/04/08/el-…

From our partners at @LaVerdadJz, here's what's happening with migrants in Juarez.

About 200 Mexican immigration agents this week were deployed to Ciudad Juárez to conduct immigration raids, prevent migrant settlements from forming along the Rio Grande and stop migrants from crossing into the United States. @LaVerdadJz reports. elpasomatters.org/2024/04/02/jua…
