Bursting at seams, consulate seeks a bigger, friendlier home – Mexican official complains of prejudice by building’s owner – Las Vegas

Tagged: , , ,

“Mariano Lemus Gas, Mexico’s consul in Las Vegas, made a plea to the valley’s Hispanic community in a recent edition of El Mundo, a local Spanish-language weekly.

Six years after becoming the valley’s first consulate, his downtown office needs a new home. He hopes the community can help.

The decision is mostly a result of the continuous growth in the area’s Mexican community. Demand at the office has gone from about 100 documents daily to nearly 180 during the past three years alone, while the consulate’s staff has gone from 10 to 16 since opening day, said Johannes Jacome, alternate consul.”*
