(AP Photo/Alejandro Granadillo) Puerto Rico is facing its worst drought in nearly 100 years this summer.

Cuentas claras sobre la deuda y la quiebra del gobierno de Puerto Rico
Para entender la deuda pública de Puerto Rico y cómo nos llevó a la quiebra, es necesario revisitar las decisiones del pasado y presentar los datos correctos. El aumento de la deuda pública tiene sus raíces en el aumento vertiginoso de la nómina pública, la cual creció de $3,377 millones a $5,528 millones anuales entre el año 2000 y el 2009, lo que representa un incremento de 63% en tan solo 9 años.
Fortuño: Ga.'s Kemp Should Appoint Latino to Senate

Hoy le he pedido al gobernador Rosselló que renuncie a su posición para dar paso a la reconciliación y al orden. Necesitamos que se reestablezca el orden y se retome el norte.

Lo ocurrido en las últimas semanas es algo sin precedente y nos preocupa a todos los que amamos nuestra isla.
Recordando a Rafael Hernández Colón
La triste noticia sobre el fallecimiento del ex gobernador, Rafael Hernández Colón, deja un inmenso vacío en nuestra isla. Dedicó la mayor parte de su vida al servicio público, tanto como Secretario de Justicia, Presidente del Senado y Gobernador.
