Yesterday the Puerto Rican Senate was presented with a new proposal to end the five day old crisis, a 5.9 percent sales tax and a new tax on large corporations (which are mostly not Puerto Rican) with earnings in excess of $10 million.

Eddie Olivera of United Public Servants was quoted by NY1 saying:
We warned the governor or his representative that should this not by solved by Monday, then we are going to step up the activism and continue to go out and denounce the situation wherever we can.
