Report: Puerto Rico Teamsters Union, “Frente Amplio”, Refuse to Deliver Supplies – Use Hurricane Maria as Contract Leverage… | The Last Refuge:
"Puerto Rican born and raised, Colonel Michael A. Valle (”Torch”), Commander, 101st Air and Space Operations Group, and Director of the Joint Air Component Coordination Element, 1st Air Force, responsible for Hurricane Maria relief efforts, has the following comment:

Three weeks earlier, nobody cared about the plight of the truckers, so now the truckers don’t care about the country.
This is all the governor’s fault, the toothless guy says. He passed a law, and now he has to live with it.
The governor didn’t understand the suffering of the working man, so now the truckers will show the country what suffering is.
Since the country doesn’t care about truckers, the truckers won’t help..."
