In the letter, the employees explain their dedication to their work and their communities and emphasize that Doral, and they as employees of Doral, are part of Puerto Rico and its future.

“Many of us have worked at Doral for many years, helping thousands and thousands of Puerto Rican families, like ours, reach their dream of owning homes. Over the years, we have been recognized as a community bank, defending just causes and pursuing initiatives related to cancer, the environment, the arts, education and the home.

“Mr. Governor, now that the court of justice has decided the controversy through a fair process and has ruled that Doral is right, we request that you consider carefully that Doral is the company for which we work and where we earn the bread we feed our children. We want to work and contribute to Puerto Rico.”
