Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a compilation of the results of all the plebiscites on Statehood held by Puerto Rico in 1967, 1993, 1998 and 2012. Puerto Rico has been a US territory since 1898, and Puerto Ricans are American citizens since 1917. Because of the current territorial status, American citizens of Puerto Rico don't have voting representation in Congress and can't participate in the election of the President of the US. In 2012, after three failed plebiscites, the people of Puerto Rico gave a clear message to change their current status and seek admission as the 51st state. The plebiscite contained two questions. The 1st question asked voters to decide if they wanted to keep the current territorial status. 54%% voted against the current status. The 2nd question asked voters to choose a non territorial option between Statehood, Independence and Free Association. 61%% voted for Statehood. Now is the time for Congress to act, and approve enabling legislation to make Puerto Rico state 51 of the USA.

Book Synopsis A New State of Puerto Rican Politics by : Justin Bigelow
Download or read book A New State of Puerto Rican Politics written by Justin Bigelow and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Puerto Rico's contested political status evokes questions of colonialism and self-determination. In the 1990's residents voted in plebiscites to answer what has become known as the Puerto Rican question: Should Puerto Rico become a new U.S. state, an autonomous commonwealth, or an independent nation? In 1993, "commonwealth" and "statehood" received almost 50 percent each. In 1998, however, 50.3 percent of voters chose "None of the above." By analyzing these outcomes through frameworks of economics, ideological nationalisms, and moral politics, I argue that nationalism is important in every option and is manifested in the metaphor of political status as family composition.

Download or read book Puerto Rico's Political Status and the 2012 Plebiscite written by R. Sam Garrett and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first time since 1998, voters in Puerto Rico are preparing to reconsider the island's relationship with the federal government. Voters will be asked to answer two questions: (1) whether they wish to maintain the status quo or pursue a new relationship and (2) regardless of the choice in the first question, whether they prefer statehood, independence, or to be a "sovereign free associated state." Although the November 2012 status vote, termed a "plebiscite," is nonbinding, Congress will likely be asked to consider the result and may choose to engage in oversight or legislation on the issue. Regardless of the outcome, the plebiscite is likely to be followed closely in Puerto Rico and Washington. Whether initiated by the Puerto Rican people or Congress, any change in the island's political status would require congressional action. Beyond the plebiscite, Congress has broad jurisdiction over territories and routinely monitors status developments. Some Members of Congress -- especially those with large Puerto Rican constituencies or personal connections to Puerto Rico -- also closely follow the issue. "Political status"--A term of art referring to the relationship between the federal government and a territorial government -- is perhaps the defining issue in Puerto Rican politics and the island's interactions with the mainland.

Download or read book The Political Status of Puerto Rico written by Milton O. Rodriguez and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis is a comparative study of the 1967 and 1993 plebiscites held to determine whether Puerto Rico would remain a commonwealth, become a state, or attain independence. It provides a short and concise description of Puerto Rico's political status, its current relationship with the United States, and the possible future direction of that relationship. The reader will find a brief history of Puerto Rico's development from Spanish control to U.S. control. The research includes data and analysis from the 1967 and 1993 plebiscites (nonbinding on the U.S. Congress) and gubernatorial elections from 1948 to 1996, as well as electoral data from the city of Humacao for a case study. A proposal is before the U.S. Congress to hold another plebiscite in 1998 that would be binding on Congress. Chapter 4 presents a case study that suggests a possible winning outcome of the proposed 1998 plebiscite.
