Ricardo Rossello: “If Puerto Ricans would be treated equally under every one of the circumstances, we would not be having a lot of these…”

Puerto Rico needs a reliable, cost-effective, and efficient electrical system.

Well, Anderson, the damage is very extensive. It is nothing short of a major disaster. We have a lot of flooding, a lot of infrastructure damage. Our telecommunications system is partially down. Our energy infrastructure is completely down.

If we continue as a colonial territory, we will always be treated unequally.

Our fiscal plan is specifically directed to addressing that concern. We are committed to not only not having to have lay-offs, but also we don't have to reduce the time that the employees are actually working.
