For about 3 years, the spending that happened in Puerto Rico was emergency spending by FEMA.
It should not be surprising that 105 years after becoming U.S. citizens by birth, Puerto Ricans want to vote for President and to have voting representation in Congress.
I am pleased to report that Puerto Rico is emerging from a challenging period with strength and optimism into a new era of stability evidenced by the island's economic upswing.
