New York City mayor Bill de Blasio says the federal government is not helping Puerto Rico with its debt delinquency because the U.S. territory is populated by “people of color.”
The New York Post reports that de Blasio made this accusation while speaking at Al Sharpton’s activism org, the National Action Network.
“The backs of the United States government turned on them, while a health-care crisis grows, a humanitarian crisis grows, the Zika crisis grows,” he said in a speech at the National Action Network in Harlem.
“By the way, brothers and sisters, do you think by any chance it could be because they’re people of color?”
Puerto Rico defaulted on a nine-figure debt payment this past Monday. According to Bloomberg, hedge funds hold $15 billion of the Caribbean island’s debts. De Blasio is putting pressure on Republican House Speaker Paul Ryan to let the territory declare bankruptcy. As reported by Crain’s New York:
“Anyone who cares about Puerto Rico can pick up the phone and call 1-888-909-RYAN,” the mayor said, referring to House Speaker Paul Ryan, then repeating the number in the manner of a TV mail-order commercial. “That’s R-Y-A-N. That’s 1-888-909-7926.”
