Thousands Still Sleeping Outside After Puerto Rico Earthquake As Democrats Demand White House Releas

Years of storms and quakes have damaged much of the island while the local government has struggled to assist in recovery.

NPR Code Switch reporter Adrian Florido (@adrianflorido) speaks to host Tonya Mosley on the latest from the island.
