Quotes-start.png A bill in Congress would create a financial control board to take charge of Puerto Rico’s finances and budget. This is a model that helped Washington, D.C., to recover when it faced a similar stage of financial crisis. A control board also worked well in managing Detroit’s bankruptcy. Also, and this is key, the financial control board is not a taxpayer bailout of Puerto Rico. Quotes-end.png
