“For us, it’s a victory because the island has already been requesting for two years the declaration of a state of emergency and, well, it was finally decreed the way it had to be done: with an executive order that includes specific issues to address the violence towards women in Puerto Rico,” Amárilis Pagán, the director of the activist group Proyecto Matria, said in a statement to reporters.
Pagán clarified that she and other members of Proyecto Matria met at La Fortaleza, which serves as the residence of the governor, last Friday to present guidelines for the Pierluisi to implement that can effectively address femicide on the island.
