This is one policy decision that should not be difficult. Justice and equality for all are still the basic principles upon which this country was founded. And yet. my constituents. the 3.6 million U.S. citizens of Puerto Rico. have not been told clearly whether or not our poor will be given equal access to quality health care. A special allocation of $300 million is being recommended for undocumented aliens. but there is no money for the American citizens of Puerto Rico? Over the next 5 years.
