It's not only STT and STJ, St. Croix also has issue with power outages and ridiculously high power & water bills.

I would NEVER have expected to see this video. As an American colony since 1917, this is a recurring issue for DECADES!!!

Thank you so much for spreading awareness❤️it’s been a rough year for us here in the Virgin Islands, we’ve been experiencing daily outages for a while now. I have friends who are nurses and firefighters that were telling me both the emergency room and fire stations were over packed with people on oxygen who were just sitting there all day and overnight with their machines plugged in not wanting to go home, because they literally would just be going home to die. There was a case where this one man’s oxygen cut off in his sleep because his machine lost power during the outage in the middle of the night and his daughter found him unresponsive . My friend said that the hospital was so full that they were treating patients right in the emergency room waiting area. The people who needed medical attention from St. John had to go all the way across the ocean to St. Thomas to get it. There were so many diabetic people on refrigerated insulin in there too because all of their medication‘s spoiled. A man’s generator caught fire and burnt his entire house down. It’s all just so terrible 💔

if only local govs would put money into better infrastructures to help prevent these things, but no I’m sure there’s better things for it to go to 🫩

I got to say I fear this is our future if we don't do something about it

This happens often. Cost of living is sky high and on top of that WAPA charging out the ass for spotty electrical services.

Thank you thank you thank you, for talking about this. I know longer live in the territory, but I’m tired of my friends and family going through this. WAPA has always been an issue for DECADES. One of the main reason I no longer live on the territory. Our government don’t care about us
