Senator Sanders and Congresswoman Omar, please include Jamaica in the debt relief initiative. Lending institutions, please cancel Jamaica's foreign debt in full along with the other nations included in the initiative.
Why is this important?
Jamaica has been under a debt burden since the mid-1970s, often paying back more than they receive in any given year. Jamaican people are suffering, violence is rampant, and repayments prevent development on many social indicators.
