Del Valle Correa said that so far this year two children died in a shooting in Río Grande — he named the Fort and Cepeda families — and he listed four women who were victims of domestic violence: Mildred Colón Bonilla, Lizali Escalante Espada, Camil Vilmenaris Meléndez and Andrea Guerrero. He urged colleagues and the public to “romper el silencio” and to act when witnessing violence: “Cuando seas testigo de la violencia contra las mujeres, no te quedes callado, actúa.”

He framed the ribbons as memorials and a public call to action, saying each child and woman deserves a safe environment and that public servants should work to protect them.

He described the measure as establishing a public-policy framework to “proteger a lugares considerados como sensibles por su importancia en el ejercicio de derechos fundamentales.”

Márquez Lebrón said the bill would clarify and standardize parameters governing interactions between Puerto Rican government personnel and federal immigration authorities, and that its scope is limited to policy measures within the island’s competence. He listed categories the bill would protect, including hospitals, schools, health facilities, community centers and locations where people exercise fundamental rights, and said the policy would aim to ensure those seeking services can be attended regardless of immigration status.

“This ley establece los hospitales, las escuelas, las facilidades de salud... los espacios donde se manifieste las personas, los centros comunitarios como lugares protegidos bajo el gobierno de Puerto Rico,” Márquez Lebrón said on the floor. He also said a group of colleagues had already joined as co-sponsors and urged further support.

Figueroa Acevedo said the bill responds to “la orden ejecutiva, señora gobernadora 004, firmada el dos de enero,” and described persistent access problems to municipalities in his District 16 — Isabela, San Sebastián and the barrio Guerrero of Aguadilla — saying the road conditions have remained serious since Hurricane María. He asked the chamber’s internal affairs office to move the bill forward so reconstruction work can begin.

“Los accesos a nuestros municipios son la base primordial para el desarrollo económico, turístico en nuestro pueblo,” Figueroa Acevedo said on the floor, urging colleagues in the majority to give the project step to start investigations.

The transcript records the representatives’ request for committee action but does not record a formal referral vote or committee assignment on the floor during this session. No appropriation or construction timetable was included in the floor remarks; the representative said specific roads were listed in the bill but did not read those enumerations on the floor.","Representative Figueroa Acevedo said Project de la Cámara 156, filed Jan. 14, asks attention to damaged access roads in District 16 (Isabela, San Sebastián, and Guerrero barrio of Aguadilla) and requested the Internal Affairs committee begin an investigation to prioritize reconstruction work.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":72,"_74":72},6315244,"House of Representatives approves a series of resolutions including studies on toll cap and regional socioeconomic reviews",821,1635000,2456000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2380656-d22001691f5cfe526a9dacab6a6eb583&start=1635&end=2456","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2380656-d22001691f5cfe526a9dacab6a6eb583/thumbnail_1635000.jpg","/articles/6315244/House-of-Representatives-approves-a-series-of-resolutions-including-studies-on-toll-cap-and-regional-socioeconomic-reviews","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6315244-404804afdf29e8aa2ab1ce40fdd528ac/orig.mp4?Expires=1776064005&Signature=kg3JVMHRzVGRQ0h-jM1KPdb2eAok4sFajZI9Wrbe4rcIYIt1t8lDqJTo9J71CKdjDMIw4vgb5BT8rB73pekUM1j3gTIM1Vlvu1KgUMP-KnB27XMILPKa~HBu59gKELxiuvukh3Oc9CipPTJs1MG5zQ4~0tV7z4-BODDeaK-GGXAxMqEpuvXcCsBC2YGJgBxO7dGAP6KuVyJtYOYwPbcY8sTR5JKb84-hPLjOGJz3coQ6BuiAfHV5fW2r2TPbi9wn0nCnNEg2V~Or~r3go9ShVDAPC5MGadJtpmOrBBAIjszuumZGSJPN6c~8~nCsXTJmRyYcyWpq6~FITQDbrJRsyQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The House of Representatives of Puerto Rico approved a set of resolutions on Feb. 20, 2025, including measures to study an annual cap on AutoExpreso user charges and multiple regional socioeconomic investigations.

Lawmakers voted by voice to approve the amended resolutions. The chamber’s calendar included Resolution 72 (study on an annual cap for AutoExpreso charges), Resolution 102 (study on socioeconomic development in the Metro region), Resolution 103, Resolution 104, Resolution 105, Resolution 106, Resolution 107 and Resolution 121. Each was submitted with committee reports and in several cases the text was amended on the floor so the measure would “comenzará a regir inmediatamente después de su aprobación.”

“Se aprueba” and similar confirmations followed floor readings and amendment readings; the chair called for affirmations and the body responded by voice. The record shows approvals by voice vote in each instance; the transcript does not record roll-call tallies or named individual votes for these items.

Votes at a glance (as recorded on the floor):

- Resolution 72 — Directs the Commission on Transportation and Infrastructure to conduct a technical and economic study on the feasibility of implementing an annual cap on amounts imposed on AutoExpreso users. Approved (voice vote) as amended so the resolution takes effect immediately after approval.

- Resolution 102 — Orders a Commission investigation into socioeconomic development matters in San Juan, Guaynabo, Bayamón, Cataño, Carolina and Trujillo Alto and the interaction of government programs in those municipalities. Approved (voice vote) as amended to take effect immediately after approval.

- Resolution 103 — Commission report and amendments were approved; the resolution was adopted (voice vote) as amended to take effect immediately after approval.

- Resolution 104 — Adopted (voice vote) as amended to take effect immediately after approval.

- Resolution 105 — Adopted (voice vote) as amended to take effect immediately after approval.

- Resolution 106 — Adopted (voice vote) as amended; the floor added language about permit reform and the need for a more agile permitting system. Approved as amended to take effect immediately after approval.

- Resolution 107 — Adopted (voice vote) as amended to take effect immediately after approval.

- Resolution 121 — Adopted (voice vote) as amended to take effect immediately after approval.

All approvals on the record were voice votes. Where the transcript records the chair calling for “lo que tenga afirmativa, diga que sí,” the body answered in the affirmative; the record does not include individual yes/no tallies or enumerated roll-call votes for the listed resolutions.

The House also approved several noncontroversial motions in block — congratulatory recognitions and acknowledgments — and authorized co-sponsorship by other delegations on listed motions. Those procedural motions were adopted without recorded roll-call tallies.","The Puerto Rico House of Representatives approved multiple resolutions on Feb. 20, 2025, sending several study and investigative measures to committee and adopting amendments that make the resolutions effective upon approval; votes were taken by voice and tallies were not specified on the record.","actionData","errors"]
