Harris also pledged to create a Puerto Rico Opportunity Economy Task Force, which would have the government work with the private sector and nonprofits to “promote economic growth and create thousands of new, good-paying jobs.”

“I know that Puerto Rico’s economic future depends on the urgent reconstruction and modernization of the island’s energy grid,” Harris said in the video. “That’s why I will cut red tape to ensure disaster recovery funds are used quickly and effectively, and work with leaders across the island to ensure all Puerto Ricans have access to reliable, affordable electricity.”

There are thousands of Puerto Rican voters in Pennsylvania, one of the crucial battleground states in the 2024 elections. Next week, Harris will also target Latino voters in Arizona and Nevada with rallies on Oct. 31 featuring performances by Mexican bands Los Tigres Del Norte and Mana.

Bad Bunny’s public support of Harris comes a month after fellow Puerto Rican reggaetoneros Anuel AA, Nicky Jam and Justin Quiles endorsed Trump for president, and just minutes after comedian Tony Hinchcliffe described Puerto Rico as a ” island of waste’. in New York.

“I don’t know if you know this,” he said. “But there is literally a floating waste island in the middle of the ocean right now. I think it’s called Puerto Rico.”
