Henry
M. Greenberg, president of the New York State Bar Association, issued the
following statement regarding the House of Representative vote to provide
aid to Puerto Rico:
“I
applaud the action in the House of Representatives today to provide $4.67
billion in supplemental appropriations for Puerto Rico in the aftermath of
recent devastating earthquakes and urge the Senate to quickly consider this
crucial funding bill. President Trump should sign this measure because our
fellow Americans in Puerto Rico are suffering and need this critical relief.”
