Summary

United States Territorial Relief Act of 2018 This bill establishes a process under which Puerto Rico and other U.S. territories may terminate certain debts if they meet eligibility criteria.

The bill also provides funding that a special master must allocate to certain creditors whose debts were discharged under this bill.
