Can You Help Me Figure Out How To Help A Few Refugees? (PR)

I have some extra space in my house. Not much but when you are in the conditions that are facing Puerto Ricans, this would possibly be good for two or three people? Anyway, I am sure some folks getting off the island (did you know the Puerto Rico was an island and you cannot just drive there? Seriously, it is in the middle of a thing called the Atlantic!!!) need a place and have nowhere to go. I really do not have money to get them here but perhaps I could pick them up or they could find a way to get to NC? Anyway, I have no idea how to locate a family in need. I assume this may be a need for some folks escaping from the hell that is going on right now but I am not sure how to offer up my house to a couple of people. Is this needed? If so, who can I reach out to? I feel a need to do this but I have no idea where I can go to put this in action. Thank you for any ideas you may have.

We Need To Call Our Representatives (PR)

I agree we need to call regarding Obamacare, whenever a repeal comes up. And I know Obamacare is a matter of life and death because it is for my son. Right now we are safe from the appeal. Right now our people, the people of Puerto Rico, are starving and thirsty. They are dying. The heat is horrible and our citizens are suffering. This is a matter of life and death for a lot of them. We need to all be calling our representatives and demand we do something to help our fellow citizens. No matter who these people are, it is the compassionate and right thing to do. Please call your representatives and demand we help our own people. Thank you.
