It is unbelievable to think that amidst the chaos created by Hurricane Maria, the Government of Puerto Rico would fire the person in charge of emergency preparedness without having a plan to replace him. The consequences of Maria continue to resonate with those living in Puerto Rico and even some outside who had no other option but to flee their home. The little help offered by both federal and local government has definitely served as another reason to lose faith in the system but unfortunately, with a catastrophe the size of hurricane Maria, the people of Puerto Rico are left to cling to the slither of hope left in these authorities. The lack of Puerto Rican representation on Capitol Hill can be singled out as the main contributor to the little of aid provided by the government. It is critical that the people of Puerto Rico are treated like fellow Americans and provided the aid necessary to live a dignified life.
