Lin-Manuel Makes A Plea For Puerto Rico
Hamilton himself — Lin-Manuel Miranda — has published an op-ed in the New York Times about the crisis facing his family’s homeland of Puerto Rico. “Much has been said about the dire economic situation pressing down on Puerto Rico. I am the son of Puerto Rican parents. What can I say to persuade elected officials and policy makers to act? What influence do I have to change the minds and hearts of those in Congress to put aside their differences and deal with the crisis confronting 3.5 million American citizens in the Caribbean?”
