Readout of Deputy Secretary Don Graves Meeting with Puerto Rico Financial Oversight and Management Board Executive Director Robert Mujica

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Today, Deputy Secretary Graves met with Puerto Rico Financial Oversight and Management Board (FOMB) Executive Director Robert Mujica to discuss efforts on economic development and the Biden-Harris Administration’s priorities for the archipelago, which were framed around Economic Deliverables agreed upon during last December’s Joint Economic Dialogue. As Puerto Rico Economic Growth Coordinator, the Deputy Secretary highlighted the generational opportunity that exists for the archipelago by deploying post-disaster recovery funding together with programs available through the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (BIL), American Rescue Plan (ARP) Act, and the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), that can help build a sustainable economy with just and equitable communities. They also discussed a vision in which a vibrant private sector, an active civil society and robust public institutions in Puerto Rico are empowered to build a more resilient and sustainable society.
