Well they need to vet that list properly too. I had a family member a few years back receive a letter about repaying a student loan that they never received. They applied, but declined to accept it after receiving a US scholarship but the government still had their name on the list. <br/>I hope the list is actually accurate.
Umm... all 3 places are a part of the US. That's like saying the government of The Bahamas has to pay for the damages in Grand Bahama, Ragged Island and Long Island after Irma. <br/>To make matters worse, although 3.4 million Americans live in Puerto Rico, Trump has shown a clear racist attitude to those Americans of color. <br/> On no GOOD day, will Trump ever be a good example to draw from - http://edition.cnn.com/2017/10/01/opini… <br/> While I don't see harm in helping Dominica, blog posters here have a point about helping our own that are suffering as well. <br/> You don't want a man having a wife and children with nothing to eat, going out and giving food to another family with nothing to eat. NO! Feed BOTH. I think that's the sum of what everyone is saying it seems.
I support the current administration for the most part, but honestly though does Sands ever stop making excuses for not doing his job? Election is over, what are you going to do NOW?
