The senior senator from Massachusetts has the floor.

Treasury needs to step up and show more leadership here.

Here is what Sen. Warren’s Facebook page posted as well:

Puerto Rico has been hit hard by 10 years of recession, and the 3.5 million American citizens who live there are at the mercy of the vulture funds who hold much of their debt. Today at a committee hearing, I urged the Treasury Department to work just as hard to help the people of Puerto Rico as they do for Wall Street banks.

Boom.

Gracias, Sen. Warren.
