The fate of <span class=\"xn-location\">Puerto Rico&#8217;s<\/span> economy and the precedents set by a solution to its debt crisis are far too important to be decided in a hurried, backroom game of politics.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If Congress feels it appropriate to intervene in <span class=\"xn-location\">Puerto Rico<\/span>, then it should do so in plain sight and through the full legislative process, after thoroughly assessing the full range of available\u00a0policy options. A hurried attempt to approve an all-powerful control board or Super Chapter 9 is a betrayal of the trust of constituents and the Puerto Rican people.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Center for Individual Freedom will continue to monitor this situation closely and encourage a transparent resolution process that balances the needs of the Puerto Rican government with the rights of all stakeholders.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p> <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"xn-content\">\n<p><span class=\"xn-location\">ALEXANDRIA, Virginia<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-chron\">Dec. 11, 2015<\/span> \/PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE\/ &#8212; The following statement should be attributed to Center for Individual Freedom President <span class=\"xn-person\">Jeffrey Mazzella<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Congress should reject any and all riders attached to the omnibus spending bill relating to the <span class=\"xn-location\">Puerto Rico<\/span> debt crisis.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The American people did not empower this Congress so that it could use gravely important policy decisions as currency in&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-43893","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-gobierno-y-politica"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43893","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=43893"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43893\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=43893"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=43893"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hispanicprwire.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=43893"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
