Key Takeaways:

At least 10 people are dead and as much as $85 billion in insured losses have been reported since Hurricane Maria hit Puerto Rico as a Category 4 storm last Wednesday. Some officials have called the aftermath “apocalyptic,” while one said Maria set Puerto Rico back “20 to 30 years.” San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulín Cruz painted an even grimmer picture of what’s to come, while Gov.
