A Puerto Rican power company fired back Friday after the U.S. House Committee on Natural Resources ordered Luma, which is in charge of transmission and distribution of power on the island, to release key data as outages in the U.S. territory persist, the Associated Press reported.
The demand in a letter sent by the committee was issued just days after officials, including company CEO Wayne Stensby, testified before the committee.
