Congress must immediately end its inherently colonial territorial rule over Puerto Rico, because it violates America's values of democracy, equal justice under the law, and government by the consent of the governed.
This must also be taken together with the fact that Puerto Ricans have never favored independence.
We are natural born U.S. citizens and want an equal seat at the table in the federal government that writes and implements the laws that we live under.
It is called the creation of Las Carpetas where over 100,000 advocates of Puerto Rican independence were monitored.
