Take a breath, Wendle. The bill does not send any taxpayer money to Puerto Rico. It says that right in the article you posted.

What this is about is whether or not PR will be permitted to do some form of bankruptcy, because they can't pay all their debts. Someone, bondholders, pensioners, etc. is going to not get the money they were promised. So it really is about whether Congress should pass legislation to enable a managed default/bankruptcy, or just let it fall apart piecemeal.
