Jenniffer González Colón signs the budget with line-item vetoes

On June 29, 2026, El Nuevo Día reports that Governor Jenniffer González Colón signed the next fiscal year's budget with changes to line items the Senate introduced. This desk's ledger records the signed figure: 13,174 million dollars, about 6 million less than the legislative piece's 13,180.5 million, with cuts to the Administración de Servicios Generales and other line items. The full body sat behind the subscription wall; what remain are the headline and that arithmetic published alongside the URL.

Robert F. Mujica Jr. had asked, on June 27 via the same newspaper, that the governor submit the document on the 29th at 8:00 a.m. This note is that signature, not the fiscal-plan-consistency sign-off. Nor is it the 33.6 billion dollar consolidated certification the Junta de Supervisión Fiscal issued the same June 29, a kernel already on this desk: that act covers the combined budget under PROMESA; this, the General Fund with Jenniffer González Colón's line-item vetoes. Two documents, one calendar.

On June 22 and 24, House and Senate had approved 13,180,532,000 dollars. On the 26th, the House concurred. On the 29th, the governor cuts. The line-by-line list of each veto is not invented here: El Nuevo Día, in the visible fragment, does not transcribe it, and San Juan Daily Star and 787daily, which the ledger discarded as the same signature, are not used as a second source.

What remain are the 13,174 million, the difference of about 6 million, and the distinction from the Junta's 33.6 billion. The reader who wants the rest of the body has the El Nuevo Día URL. This is not original reporting.
