Jenniffer González Colón takes the Ley 60 extension to 2055 to Wall Street

On August 25, 2026, Caribbean Business covers the Puerto Rico government's first appearance at the New York Stock Exchange. Governor Jenniffer González Colón takes to Wall Street a message of openness to investment and ties it to manufacturing and permits. The tax anchor in the note is concrete: she proposes certainty for resident investors through December 31, 2055, an extension of Ley 60 that the outlet places at the center of the trip.

The deck of that same coverage cites 29 projects, $2.6 billion in investment, and 5,069 jobs. Those three figures come from Caribbean Business's deck, not from a tally by this magazine. Other notes, on other dates and with other speakers, print similar numbers with different shadings. On August 24, El Nuevo Día reported that La Fortaleza cited 5,069 jobs and $2.6 billion through executive order OE-2025-012. On August 21, the same El Nuevo Día, from ExpoCom, attributed to the DDEC 29 projects, 27 companies, $2,681 million, and 5,069 jobs. No winner is picked. Who said it, and in which outlet, is named.

The Planning and Permits Code appears in that same Caribbean Business note as a 793-page Senate substitute that still has no floor vote. Jenniffer González Colón sells permits at the NYSE; the outlet reminds readers that the code has not been voted. That tension belongs to the coverage, not to a verdict. There is no vote count here, and no approval calendar the source did not put down.

The New York trip is the same arc El Nuevo Día dated August 24: outbound that day, return on the 26th, with the economic cabinet. Caribbean Business, a day later, sets the scene on the NYSE floor and the tax message through 2055. Two notes, two outlets, two angles. The government's first appearance on that exchange is the fact Caribbean Business underlines.

The deck is not a census of factories, and Ley 60 is not a statute quoted article by article. What remains is the tax sunset date the outlet published, the three deck figures, and the 793 pages without a vote. A reader who wants the full speech or the Senate substitute has Caribbean Business's URL at the foot. This is not original reporting.
