Pierluisi Statement on Fitch Ratings Comment that Extension of Chapter 9 to Puerto Rico Would Be Positive by 43

Res. Comm. Pedro Pierluisi - Representing The At Large District Of PUERTO RICO

Washington, DC—Resident Commissioner Pedro Pierluisi released the following statement regarding the formal comment made on Wednesday by Fitch Ratings, in which the rating agency opined that the bill recently introduced by Pierluisi to include Puerto Rico in Chapter 9 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code would constitute a positive step for Puerto Rico if it were to become law: “I am encouraged that Fitch has expressed its view that enactment by the U.S. Congress of H.R. 5305, the Puerto Rico Chapter 9 Uniformity Act of 2014, ‘would be a positive and important development for Puerto Rico and holders of debt of its public utilities and public instrumentalities,’ including holders of debt issued by the Puerto Rico Sales Tax Financing Corporation, known as COFINA.  As Fitch observes, this bill ‘would place Puerto Rico on an equal footing with the 50 States, who can currently use Chapter 9 for their municipalities,’ as the U.S. Bankruptcy Code defines that term. “In addition to Fitch, this legislation has been endorsed by the National Bankruptcy Conference; numerous attorneys, law professors and financial experts from all along the political spectrum; and the former chief judge of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Puerto Rico.  As I continue my efforts to educate Members of Congress on the bill, being able to point to these expressions of support from respected individuals and organizations is of considerable assistance. “I am pleased that there appears to be broad backing for the notion that extending Chapter 9 to Puerto Rico is a fair and sensible way to proceed.  My legislation would simply empower the Puerto Rico government to authorize its government-owned corporations to utilize the tried-and-true Chapter 9 procedure if it becomes necessary, under the expert supervision of an impartial federal bankruptcy judge, based on legal precedent established in Chapter 9 proceedings that have taken place throughout the United States.  It stands to reason that the Chapter 9 process would be more predictable, orderly and swift than any alternative process, and is the procedure most likely to result in an outcome that is fair and equitable to all stakeholders.”
