**Puerto Rico’s Fiscal Control Board: A Decade of Controversy**
*Claridad* reports that the past ten years in Puerto Rico have marked a new phase in the island’s relationship with the United States. The shift began after the U.S. Congress and the President approved the PROMESA law in 2016, which established the Fiscal Control Board (Junta de Control Fiscal, JCF). The article describes this period as “la década perdida” (the lost decade) and frames it as a continuation of Puerto Rico’s colonial ties to the U.S. government.
