October 12, 2017 at 3:34 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard
A new Kaiser Family Foundation poll finds that 62% of Americans think that people in Puerto Rico are not yet getting the help they need in the aftermath of Hurricane Maria.
In terms of the federal governments response, 52% feel the federal government is not doing enough to restore electricity and access to food and water and 52% think the response has been too slow.
