Drmocrats are pushing Puerto Rico to become 51st state... They're trying to push it while they're in majority in the House and the Senate..And they may well get it through before new Congress..Surprisingly or not, there are few Republicans who are in favor of Puerto Rico to become 51st state ...What do you guys think, should we include Puerto Rico in the Union?

16 Republicans v**ed for Puerto Rico to become 51st state...It actually already passed the House 2 days ago..

If this was so important, than why did Dems waited until 20 days till new Congress??... Dems don't really care about Puerto Rico... It's very politically motivated, since most likely Puerto Ricans will v**e Democrat...They've waited 4 yrs before bringing this bill to the floor... and now that Dems will lose the majority in new Congress , now they want Puerto Rico to become 51st state?? Really?? It's BS in my opinion..

How are they recognized???
As full citizens with all the rights accorded to Americans???

Let me ask in a different way...When would you feel would be the right time to recognize Puerto Rico as a state??

I'm not in charge of that.. But if it was so important than there should of been debate NOT 20 days before the beginning of new Congress, but maybe 2 or 3 months earlier.. That's mine opinion..

Dems are using Poerto Rico to gain more Dems... That's all, in my opinion...

It's too late.. It's already passed Congress with the help of 19 Republicans... I believe the Senate is next, and we know it will pass with flying colors...

Exactly, Dems know making that dependant nation a state with the liberal cradle to grave freebies will have their v**es.

They are debt riddled and produce more little riccans than anything else, Porto Reeko will be another huge drain and will immediately call for trillions of dollars by the Dems to support and bail out.... While we wave the debt owed to America.

Just watch, more money, more freeloaders and tax dollars pissed away by with zero accountability..... Democrat MO
