🧵THREAD: Before the US govt forced Puerto Rico’s electricity grid to be privatized (effective June 1st), American-Canadian corp LUMA was paid $1B to prepare for service & maintenance duty. 2 wks in, the grid’s unstableness is costing us our homes, food, appliances; EVERYTHING.🧵
As many of you know, Puerto Rico experienced a deadly hurricane in 2017 that knocked our power grid down, leaving us without power for a year. As a result, the utility became a target for neoliberal vultures & disaster capitalism to swoop in and take over. (See: Whitefish/Cobra)
Puerto Rico is under full authority of Congress & surviving under direct austerity measures imposed by the Fiscal Control Management Board. Despite resistance, FOMB overruled our Legislature & a contract to privatize the grid was implemented. Its now under LUMA ENERGY’s control
