Evidence
Apoyaré leyes como el Supply Chain Growth and Recovery Act, que daría un crédito contributivo del 40% a empresas que se muden a Puerto Rico y fortalezcan la cadena de suministros.
One promising bipartisan initiative is the Supply Chain Growth and Recovery Act, introduced by Congresswoman Malliotakis of this committee, which incentivizes investments in Puerto Rico to re-shore critical supply chains to the United States.
The Resident Commissioner’s testimony ... reflects his ongoing efforts ... In January, just two weeks after being sworn in, he testified before the House Committee on Ways and Means, urging his colleagues to consider modern tax incentives to drive economic development in Puerto Rico – particularly by reshoring critical supply chains to the United States. This effort contributed to his role in introducing the bipartisan Supply Chain Growth and Recovery Act.
Assessments
The promise was to support legislation like the Supply Chain Growth and Recovery Act to create a 40% tax credit for companies relocating to Puerto Rico. The evidence shows Hernandez publicly advocated for this policy shortly after taking office and materially advanced the proposal through testimony and involvement in introducing or promoting the bipartisan bill during the same federal term. However, there is no evidence that the tax credit became law or that the promised legislative outcome was delivered. This qualifies as a serious legislative effort that did not achieve enactment.
Hernandez made a serious same-term effort toward the promise by publicly advocating for Puerto Rico supply-chain tax incentives in January 2025 and, according to his office, helping introduce the bipartisan Supply Chain Growth and Recovery Act. However, the evidence provided does not show that the promised 40% tax credit became law or that companies actually received the relocation incentive. Because the promised policy outcome was not delivered despite a meaningful legislative/executive attempt, this should be rated never with an effort badge.
