As Florida recovers from Hurricane Ian, Puerto Ricans still dealing with the aftermath of Hurricane Fiona are pleading with the Biden administration to not forget the island. Power is still out for more than 100,000 Puerto Rican customers and remains unstable for those who have it.

Plus, the Supreme Court debates narrowing the Clean Water Act.
