Last update: 3 hours ago

Territory’s Future Talk: Lt. Gov. Tregenza Roach told UVI graduates on St. Croix that the U.S. Virgin Islands’ political relationship with the U.S. isn’t set in stone—and hinted at possible deeper ties with the British Virgin Islands, stressing that Congress holds broad authority over the territory. Public Health Watch: A CDC report shows dengue cases in the U.S. jumped 359% in 2024 versus the 2010–2023 average, with most cases travel-linked, including Caribbean routes that touch U.S. territories like Puerto Rico and the USVI. Shipping Disruption Risk: The VI Port Authority is responding to concerns after a vessel tied to Water Spirit Freight Services was restricted from docking in San Juan, raising worries for cargo service relied on across the territory. Opioid Settlement Money: States continue receiving Purdue Pharma/Sackler settlement funds, with Delaware’s deal now legally effective and more payments flowing to communities. STI Access: An at-home STI test program for sexual assault survivors is launching via a new Safe Access Program partnership.
