Miami Mayor Francis Suarez Drops Bid for Republican Presidential Nomination_我的网站
A |
Miami Mayor Francis Suarez spent months struggling to get the campaign donations, attention and support he needed to keep his long-shot quest for the Republican presidential nomination alive.
That ended Tuesday, when Suarez announced he would be suspending his campaign, making him the first Republican to drop out of a nomination contest that is both crowded and heavily favoring former President Donald Trump.
“While I have decided to suspend my campaign for President, my commitment to making this a better nation for every American remains," Suarez said in a statement.
“I look forward to keeping in touch with the other Republican presidential candidates and doing what I can to make sure our party puts forward a strong nominee who can inspire and unify the country, renew Americans’ trust in our institutions and in each other, and win.”
Suarez did not offer his endorsement to any of the remaining candidates.
Suarez failed to make the debate stage in Milwaukee, despite having reached, he claimed, the threshold for 40,000 individual donors. In his quest to get more donations, Suarez offered people a chance to get front-row seats to see legendary Argentine soccer player Lionel Messi in his first game playing for Inter Miami.
But with dismal polling numbers – the last three major surveys had Suarez with zero support of GOP primary voters – Suarez did not qualify for the debate stage. While campaigning in New Hampshire weeks ago, Suarez said that candidates who did not meet the thresholds for the Milwaukee debate should drop out.
As the only Hispanic in the GOP presidential race, Suarez – the 45-year-old son of Miami's first Cuban-born mayor – at first appeared to be someone who could build on the party's inroads among Latino voters. Exit polls show that Hispanics – especially in Republican Florida – are moving more toward the GOP, although Democrats still hold a commanding lead among the voter group nationally and in battleground states like Arizona and Colorado.
Suarez was also an early proponent of vaccinations for COVID-19. He has clashed with his state's GOP governor, Ron DeSantis, criticizing his foe for the GOP presidential nomination for the expansion of the "don’t say gay" law in schools and the handling of the slavery curriculum in classrooms.
Nor has Suarez been a reliable enemy of President Joe Biden. At an event at the White House in early 2021, Suarez said he spoke with the president about the pandemic and climate change, adding that he had more communication with the Democratic president than with Trump, when he was president.
"I've spoken to the president and vice president more times in the short period that they have been in office than I had spoken to the prior administration entirely," Suarez said at the time. "To me, that's an intentional desire on their part to really plug in with the mayors."
In the months he has been campaigning, however, Suarez – who did not support Trump in 2016 or 2020 – has shied away from criticizing the GOP's front-runner. In June, Suarez hinted he would pardon Trump, saying the tool is useful for presidents to “heal the country.”

据韩联社7月16日报道,三星工会公开的一份问卷调查数据,更将市场视线从外部财务表现拉回至内部人才危机——晶圆代工部门员工离职意向高达81.5%。

三星“半导体资源错配”:存储吃饱,代工跌倒
本次工会调研覆盖DS事业部8297名在岗员工。数据显示,韩国晶圆代工部门两年内离职意向高达81.5%——其中62%表示“意愿非常强烈”,19%表示“意愿较高”。这一数字远高于DS事业部49.5%的整体均值,是存储事业部(32.7%)离职意向的两倍以上。
此外,系统LSI部门离职意向为75.4%,半导体研究所为60.6%。换言之,除存储业务外,三星非存储技术研发与代工生产板块已普遍出现军心不稳现象。在DS事业部七大业务板块中,晶圆代工部门的人员流失情绪最为严重。

据韩联社,本次大规模离职情绪爆发的直接导火索,指向今年5月劳资双方达成的半导体专项绩效制度。该制度设计为按业务部门分别核算,导致同等基础年薪的员工因所属部门不同,实际到手薪酬悬殊可达三倍。

按全年营业利润300万亿韩元测算,存储事业部员工(年薪1亿韩元基准)可获专项奖金约5.5亿韩元及OPI奖5000万韩元,合计6亿韩元;而晶圆代工等非存储部门仅获专项奖1.6亿韩元加OPI奖5000万韩元,合计2.1亿韩元。DX设备事业部则仅获约600万韩元奖励,差距更为悬殊。

值得一提的是,三星电子今年上半年目标达成激励金(TAI)已于7月8日发放,存储事业部获最高额度(基本工资100%),而晶圆代工和系统LSI事业部仅为75%。
三星晶圆工厂一线员工李某向财闻表示:“我们厂今年营收涨幅、产品良率都是全年最高,按业绩贡献本该拿到匹配回报,但结果完全不符预期。”
其工友金某则直言:“同样挂着三星的logo,没有哪个岗位是轻松的。代工绩效核算像凑零钱,存储部门算奖金像清点现金。现在的分配方式,等于把代工部门当成了内部‘福利券部门’。
