Wanda Vazquez Garced on Budget & Economy

 

 


Urges Senate to provide aid following earthquakes

Garced sent a letter to Senate Leadership urging swift passage of the Emergency Supplemental Appropriations for Disaster Relief Act, H.R. 5687. This bill would allocate critical disaster relief funding for Puerto Rico as a result of ongoing earthquakes that have affected the island. H.R. 5687 would allocate $4.89 billion in emergency supplemental funding to provide significant aid to Puerto Rico for educational needs, repairs to transportation and infrastructure, and disaster relief measures.

Limit government borrowing; restrict use of such funds

Governor Vazquez Garced sent a bill to the Legislature seeking to establish certain limits on the government's debt issuance and restrict the use of that money. The measure provides that the government may only borrow to invest in capital improvements. The proposed "Debt Issuance Liability Law" will also establish that the government will be able to refinance its current debt only if it achieves savings in the payment of interest.
