A citizens' movement in Puerto Rico has contributed to the protection of pensions for 167,000 retirees. Eva Prados, who has spent a decade opposing the Fiscal Board's proposals, notes that despite debt restructuring, public services remain unprotected.
Prados has been a key figure in the opposition to the Fiscal Board's plans, which have been a subject of controversy in Puerto Rico. The movement's efforts have helped to safeguard the income of retirees, who were at risk of seeing their pensions reduced or eliminated.
The debt restructuring process has been a major issue in Puerto Rico, with concerns about the impact on public services and the island's economy.
