In addition, the activists, which included Chelsea City Council President Damali Vidot and members from activist groups Alianza por Puerto Rico, Puerto Rico Me Llama, Vamos4PR, the Center for Popular Democracy and Hedge Clippers, want the judge to dismiss $6 billion of the debt that the territory’s Fiscal Control Board declared illegal, as the debt violates the Puerto Rican Constitution.
