Diario Libre reports that the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate have not been convened to work, despite many important bills pending study in Congress. The Executive Branch extended the duration of the present legislature, but the legislators have given priority to supporting the Dominican team competing in the Caribbean Baseball Series in Puerto Rico. The large commission of legislators that traveled to Puerto Rico includes Lila Alburquerque, president of the Chamber of Deputies, and Andres Bautista, president of the Senate. The Dominican team is the favorite to win the series this year. The Dominican team won its first game during the opening of the series.
