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.
We Puerto Ricans are not victims; we have borne the price of freedom in every war from World War One to the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Gutierrez, Luis, Former Representative, Illinois' 4th District, Chicago, Illinois.
There can be no freedom without popular sovereignty; in America the people govern.
