Puerto Rico in Political Crisis: Senate Sues over Appointment of New Governor Pierluisi

The political crisis in Puerto Rico continues as its Senate has sued against the appointment of Pedro Pierluisi as the new governor following Ricardo Rossello's resignation last week. Pierluisi was sworn in despite not having been confirmed by the Puerto Rican Senate. But he argues that he is in the line of succession for governor after being nominated as secretary of state by Rossello last week. San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulin Cruz also sued after his swearing-in. We speak with Democracy Now! co-host Juan Gonzilez for his analysis of the current political climate.
