Puerto Rico's newest debt restructuring plan has been met with harsh criticism, but you would never know it reading most of the mainstream media coverage of its approval. Marisol LeBrón and Sarah Molinari published an opinion piece in Truthout challenging the mainland press narrative that the plan is one of the best things to ever happen to Puerto Rico. In this episode, we take a deep dive into their article to look at who wins and who loses in this new debt plan. We also discuss their work with the Puerto Rican organizations, PR Syllabus and the Puerto Rican Studies Association.

In the second half of the show, we break down the latest Puerto Rican News Headlines, including:

Island-wide electricity blackouts in Puerto Rico
Puerto Rico stepping into the abortion restriction debate
Puerto Rico's health care providers calling for Medicare equity
JLo's engagement to Ben Affleck
& More!
