regulations, puerto rico has no control even of its own health care policy. health care represents $2 billion a year worth of cost for the puerto rican government and puerto rico really a very hard time charting a path forward when it controls none of those economic variables. those variables and triggers are controlled by congress and puerto rico has no meaningful representation in congress. we only have a nonvoting delegate. so in a nutshell and to summarize, yes, the colonial condition makes it harder for puerto rico to chart a path forward. and i believe this is the most propitious moment in recent history for puerto rico to articulate the total package. that is negotiate with the political branches in washington a way out of the fiscal crisis by negotiating a decolonizing timetable to address the pink elephant in the room, that most want to put aside. that is puerto rico's undignified colonial condition. >> thank you. let's turn to you. you've also been extremely engaged and focused on puerto rico for a number of years. how did we get to this point? you'v

17 different entities in puerto rico. ccording to bloomberg, puerto ricans themselves hold $20 billion of debt. and nearly 60% of puerto rico's debt is held largely in individual retirement accounts and 401(k)s of very regular folks throughout the united states. in fact, over 17,000 iowans are invested in mutual funds containing at least one type of puerto rican bonds. now these folks are not vultures. they're middle-class taxpayers who invested their hard-earned money into one of the many tax-exempt municipal bond funds containing puerto rican bonds. why should they be forced by congress to bail out prosecute's government and pension obligations? the answer is quite clear. they should not be forced to do that. but unfortunately, there's no guarantee in this legislation that these hardworking folks' investments, whether in iowa or elsewhere, won't be haircut in order to fund pension obligations or christmas bonuses for public workers in puerto rico. now this didn't have to be the case. at our december hearing, i stated two

the people of puerto rico have been there with us. as far back as 1777, puerto rican ports were used by u.s. ships enabling them to run british blockades and keep commerce flowing which was so crucial to the war effort. 1777. in one instance members of the puerto rican militia guided two u.s. warships into harbor shielding them from attack from a powerful british war ship, the h.m.s. glaxo. the break can governor held strong and refused to hand over the ships to the british commander, protecting american sailors from imminent capture or worse. two years later puerto ricans took up arms and joined in an invasion of pensacola which was then the british capital of its west florida colony. they subsequently defeated a british army 2500 soldiers strong capturing the stronghold and draining resources from the british. it was puerto rican soldiers who took up arms in the u.s. civil war, in the u.s. civil war defending washington, d.c. from attack and fought in the battle of fredricksburg. some served as officers in the union army, as in the c

now, a discussion on puerto rico's debt crisis. experts review preferred actions from congress, the local puerto rican government, and the puerto rican public. this is an hour and a half. >> good morning. thank you all very much for joining us today. we are going to talk about a very serious and urgent situation confronting puerto rico, the home of 3.5 million americans. the territory's economy as we read every day has been declining for a decade. it has accumulated huge debts that it can't possibly pay. owes $72 billion to about $46 billion to pension funds. started missing bond payments in january and is expected to default on nearly 2 billion payment due july 1st. that is roughly 100% of its gross national product. thousands of residents are leaving the island for the mainland every month to look for jobs and better public services. the exodus is accelerating. in this context, congress and the obama administration have come up with compromise. the bill would establish a financial control board to oversee the island government and

we cannot view puerto rico's situation -- put puerto rico's situation in a vacuum. this will impact the rest of our nation. the bill imposes fiscal reforms without spending a single dollar of u.s. taxpayer money to relieve puerto rico's debt. the bill protects packs pears from bailing out a -- taxpayers from bailing out a government that spent recklessly and avoids setting a horrible precedent that could attempt free-standing states to walk away from their obligations. specifically, h.r. 5278 establishes a strong oversight board to require puerto rico to balance its budget and achieve fiscal responsibility. the bill includes language that ensures that the fiscal plans and any potential restructuring must honor lawful priorities as guaranteed by puerto rico's constitution and laws. every state and municipality in this country relies on bond markets to provide funding for government operations. h.r. 5278 creates the balance that will effectively address the needs of puerto rico while ensuring access to these markets for states and municipalities nationwide. in conclus

puerto rico has no control of its trade policy. puerto rico has no control of its monetary policy.erto rico has no control of the environmental renovations regulations, air and space regulations, puerto rico has no control even of its own health care policy. $2 billion a year worth of cost for the puerto rican government and really a very hard time when it really controls is none of those economic triggers are controlled by congress and puerto rico has no representation in congress. we only have a nonvoting delegate. so in a nutshell and to summarize, yes, the colonial condition make that harder for puerto rico to charge a path forward and i believe this is the most pernicious moment in recent history for puerto rico to articulate the total package that is negotiate with the political branches in washington way out of the fiscal crisis by negotiating and the colonizing bank table to address the pink elephant in the room, the most to actually put aside puerto rico and dignified colonial condition. >> thank you, but failed. now let's turn to you. you've also been extremely engaged an

what happens in puerto rico? even if, let's say for example, if she gets 60, she gets to the finish line. let me explain why before i show you puerto rico. with the current allocation of super delegates, and yes, sanders supporters like to say these people can change their mind. we count them because they get votes. their votes count. this is what made barack obama the democratic nominee before the convention in 2008. just like then, we call these people, we ask them who they're going to vote for. 119 super delegates who have yet to tell us. we also check with them to see if they're going to change their minds. like senator sanders says, wolf, if he can run the board and win at the end, will some of these people panic and switch sides? we will keep an eye on that. we'll report the changes just as rightly so as we report it now. but 547 versus 776. look where it gets here. 23, 23, she is right there at the finish line. if she were to get all 60 out of puerto rico, that would push her to the end. now, is that likel

there's no question this is a trying time for folks in puerto rico. they've seen too many jobs lost and too many neighbors leave in search of better opportunity elsewhere. it's clear that it's time for puerto rico to chart a new course and make a fresh start. this bill is just a first step. we all have more work to do to make sure that the people of puerto rico receive the health care they deserve and the good jobs and economic opportunities they need to build a better future for their kids. and i want the people of puerto rico to know that my administration is committed to your success, because you're vital to america's success. that's what this is all about. we don't turn our backs on our fellow americans. we don't treat folks differently because of where they live. instead, we treat each other as americans. we come together, especially when it's hard. that's how we've always set ourselves on a course toward a brighter day. thanks everybody, and have a great weekend. rep. gardner: play. -- hi. i'm cory gardner. this past week, the senate continued t

i've said from the beginning, in terms of the challenges that puerto rico has, $70 billion debt, pays a third of every dollar it receives toward paying interest, unsustainable for them, unsustainable for any governmental entity that would face that challenge, made tough, horrible decisions, closed schools, closed hospitals, reduced public safety and still cannot meet the challenge. that they need a clear path to restructuring under the bankruptcy laws. now, that's not a bailout. a bailout is when somebody has a debt, you bring them the money and you say okay, we're going to take care of your debt. that's not the case. restructuring is about taking the debt that you have and giving the wherewithal for that debt to be restructured in a way that is both sustainable and can take care of the obligations therein. it needs an oversight board that represents the people, the citizens, the united states citizens of puerto rico, their needs, their concerns and acknowledges and respects their democratic rights as americans. but sadly, madam president, the legislation passed by the house last week

for puerto rico and for taxpayers, president obama's treasury secretary warns that puerto rico could be forced to lay off police officers, shut down public transit and close medical facilities, and this could very well result in a taxpayer-funded bailout. today, however, we have an opportunity to help puerto rico in the face of this crisis and prevent a taxpayer bailout by passing the responsible bipartisan bill before us. this bill won't cost taxpayers a dime, not a dime. what it will do is help puerto rico restructure its financial obligations and provide much-needed oversight to put in place needed reforms. it achieves this with an audit of the island's finances and the establishment of what "the washington post" has called an impartial panel of experts to bring desperately needed transparency and reform to puerto rico's fiscal operations. puerto rico currently spends over a third of its budget on debt payments alone. by restructuring puerto rico's financial debt and helping reform its operations, this bill will allow the territory to invest more of its resources and growing the e

it impossible for puerto rico to access the capital markets for years. if that occurs, then, mark my words, sooner or later we'll be considering whether to provide direct financial assistance to puerto rico, despite the claims that this bill doesn't result in a taxpayers' bailout. and given that puerto rico has failed to provide congress with accurate financial information regarding their fiscal crisis, this unprecedented and very risky authority appears both unnecessary and, of course, unjustified. given the bill's failure to satisfy the two requirements that i've laid out, which unduly harm retirees in my state and, more importantly, while also setting bad precedent, i can't support this bill. perhaps my concerns will be proven wrong and the bill will work perfectly. but it's been my experience that bad facts make for bad law. unfortunately, i fear that we're simply pushing this problem down the road and have failed to address the root cause of puerto rico's fiscal crisis at the expense of uncalled for risk and precedent. i yield the floor, and i sugge

up next, we'll go live to puerto rico where polls closed an hour ago and results are expected any minute. stay with us. >>> all right. thanks for staking with us. i'm joy reed. we continue to keep an eye on pouerto rico where polls in the democratic primary have been closed for about an hour. the results are expected any time. hillary clinton is 60 delegates shy of the magic number to clinch her party's nomination. combined with her win last night in the virgin islands, the clinton campaign is confident they'll score the nomination. >> i'm happy to put my record up against his comments, his rant, and his outright lies anytime. i have said, and i believe this with all my heart, he is not qualified to be commander and chief either by experience, preparation, or temperament. >> we are in san juan, puerto rico. are those lines still long and are we expecting results any time soon? >> reporter: the lines have shortened up, but people are still voting. there are at least two dozen people still inside waiting to cast their ballot. this is a territory with a tremendous amount of debt, about $72

forms are heavily investing in puerto rico commercial paper. so if puerto rico doesn't pay its debt you'll end up having consequences in the mainland. folks in pensioners in california, a new jersey come across the country will feel it. somehow that means first political actors in congress will actually act press any more responsible way than they have done so far. as regards to max questions, legitimacy, yes, i guess the answer to question is that perhaps we could have engineered a process whereby puerto rican actors and actress in congress would have actually engineered a consent mechanism or by folks in puerto rico could -- [inaudible] the whole board mechanism perhaps by having a local vote on it. 80% of folks in puerto rico support the board can what's the problem of actually putting it to the people for a vote? the most recent poll i saw on the board suggests that perhaps it's 49-51, or 50/50 folks opposing. if that's the case in which the problem of actually putting it to the people on a vote? like congress did in 1951? that would render

to any outside control board running the affairs of puerto rico.here is huge opposition on the island to the bill and yet the congress is moving forward. there are a lot of liberal democrats that are supporting this bill. some are liberal organizations and have astonishingly come out in favor of the bill and are insisting that this is the only way, as that is the bill is, it is the only way for puerto rico to be able to restructure its debt and to avoid a rush to the courthouse by bondholders. is thatendez made clear there is going to be a rush to the courthouse anyway because of the bill passes, the bondholders are going to go to court to challenge the constitutionality of the court -- bill. it is not as though there are not going to be legal challenges , but menendez went on for four hours. bernie sanders participated in a short time on the filibuster, so did maria cantwell. but it seems there are a sufficient number of democrats and republicans who will vote to approve the bill. amy: where did elizabeth warren come down? juan: she has not said a

the puerto rico primary was not a close one yesterday. on sunday. hillary clinton appears to have won puerto rico 61% to 39%. that's a 22-point margin. ish. i can't tell you exactly what the margin is because we still don't have all the vote. hm, right. look at the upper-right hand corner there. there's enough of the vote to tell you clinton won puerto rico and it was by a lot. and they made the call with only 59% of the vote in and now today that 59% of the vote hasn't changed all day. usually the percentage of vote in gets stuck like that only because there's some kind of problem, a computer failure in a specific county or somebody threw a ballots in a pond or emergency weather or whatever. in this case though the reason puerto rico's vote count has not risen above 59% since sunday night is because the election commission in puerto rico decided that they were going to take the day off today. really? today of alldays. day off. and officials worked late last night counting votes and couldn't finish and were tired, so decided to take the rest of the
