In response to the president's latest threat, the mayor of San Juan, Carmen Yulín Cruz, announced on Wednesday that she will be sharing the aid that the federal government has been withholding from the city with other communities in need across the country. This decision comes after weeks of pleading with the Trump administration to release the aid that was promised to the city after Hurricane Maria devastated Puerto Rico last September.Despite the president's repeated claims that Puerto Rico is being treated fairly, the mayor has been vocal about the inadequate support the city has received from the federal government. In an interview with CNN, Cruz stated, “We are not going to be used as a political football. We are not going to be used to fuel the president’s ego or to fuel his base. We are going to continue to fight for our people.”According to sources close to the situation, the mayor has been working behind the scenes to coordinate the distribution of the aid to other communities in need. While the exact details of the plan have not been made public, it is believed that the aid will be distributed to areas affected by recent natural disasters, including California, Texas, and Florida.While the move has been praised by many, it has also been met with criticism from some who argue that the aid should be going directly to the people of Puerto Rico. However, Cruz has made it clear that the aid is intended to support the long-term recovery efforts in Puerto Rico, and that the city will continue to fight for the support it needs to rebuild and recover from the devastating hurricane.As the debate over the aid continues, one thing is clear: the people of Puerto Rico will not be ignored. The mayor's decision to share the aid with other communities in need is a powerful statement about the importance of solidarity and compassion in the face of disaster.
