The Assembly amends the FY2026 budget; González speaks of overreach

On June 30, 2026, El Nuevo Día covers Governor Jenniffer González Colón on the 2026 budget revision. The headline the outlet puts on the page attributes this phrase to the governor: the Junta overreached its functions. This desk's ledger records the legislative act of that last day: Senate and House approve a joint resolution that amends the FY2026 budget to address old debts, and the text reaches Jenniffer González Colón's signature on June 30. She cites a surplus of 635 million dollars. The body sat behind the wall; what remain are the headline, that figure, and that political reading.

This thread is not the imposed FY2026 certification the Junta de Supervisión Fiscal issued the same June 30, a kernel already on this desk. One power says overreach and legislative amendment; the other certifies an imposed budget. Nor is it the 3,000 million offer to AEE bondholders, announced that day on the Junta portal, nor the FY2027 budget signing with line-item vetoes of the 29th. Four acts in 48 hours, four URLs.

On June 27, the same El Nuevo Día had recounted Robert F. Mujica Jr.'s sign-off on the 2026-2027 budget as consistent with the fiscal plan. On the 30th, Jenniffer González Colón disputes the Junta's reach over the year that is closing. The two pieces are not reconciled. There is in the visible fragment no number of the joint resolution nor the list of old debts. They are not invented.

What remain are the 635 million the governor cited, the last-day amendment, and the distinction from the imposed budget. The reader who wants the rest of the body has the El Nuevo Día URL. This is not original reporting.
