The PREC Congratulates Democratic Candidates Jon @ossoff (D-GA) and @ReverendWarnock (D-GA) after the historic win in Georgia

The PREC Urges Congress and Georgia Democratic Candidate Jon Ossoff to Support the Will of the People of Puerto Rico

Puerto Rico voted for statehood fair and square. I thank ⁦@RepRaulGrijalva⁩ , ⁦@RepJoseSerrano⁩ and ⁦@RepDarrenSoto⁩ for their commitment to open the discussion and adoption of legislation to admit Puerto Rico as a State of the Union.

I agree @RepJoseSerrano and will work with NR Chair @RepRaulGrijalva to hear and pass legislation admitting Puerto Rico as a state. It’s also incumbent upon @SenRubioPress and @SenRickScott to lead a similar bill in the Senate. It’s time for action now. #PRStatehoodNOW 🇺🇸 🇵🇷

Our fellow Americans in PR voted for statehood by an absolute majority.  It is now time for Congress to act and give equality and democracy to PR within the U.S.

I thank @RepRaulGrijalva for recognizing that statehood won an absolute majority in PR & for his commitment to honor their self-determination decision in favor of equality early next year.

Puerto Rico voted for statehood fair and square. Congress must support the will of the people of Puerto Rico. America cannot demand democracy abroad if it ignores the plebiscite results and denies its citizens of Puerto Rico equal rights that only statehood can provide.

A clear majority of U.S. citizens in Puerto Rico have voted for statehood. I don’t care whether Puerto Rico would be a “blue” or “red” state, though it would likely be a swing state. I only care that our fellow Americans seek democratic rights and equality. Congress must act.

PRESS RELEASE ON PUERTO RICO STATEHOOD VOTE The American citizens of #PuertoRico made is clear that #statehood is the future of PR. Congress & the President should waste no time in acting on the plebiscite’s results and give PR the long-over due equality. @GOP_PR51 @PRSC51

"In a democracy, the right to vote is not for sale. That’s why a majority of Puerto Ricans have chosen statehood, and why Congress should admit Puerto Rico now," writes Christina D. Ponsa-Kraus. nyti.ms/3eym8NR
