Senator Juan Oscar Morales referred Suzanne Roig Fuertes, Secretary of the Department of Family, to four review bodies over travel expenses tied to her trip to Spain, he announced on Monday.

Morales sent the matter to the Puerto Rico Department of Justice, the Government Ethics Office, the Comptroller, and the US federal HHS Inspector General. Roig Fuertes said on Monday that she will not resign her position despite the public controversy.

La Fortaleza confirmed it maintains confidence in Roig Fuertes despite what it called emerging contradictions. Public Affairs Secretary Jean Peña Payano said La Fortaleza will monitor the official investigation process.
