'''Puerto Rico statehood''' is a proposal whereby the U.S. territory of [[Puerto Rico]] would become a state, with the rights in the [[Constitution]] guarranteed to it. This would give it voting power in the [[House of Representatives]] (currently it has none) and the right to elect two [[Senators]]. Historically, Republicans are the ones sho support statehood for Puerto Rico. Most leftist and progressives, including most Puerto Rican democrats in the [[U.S. Congress]], opposes statehood for Puerto Rico and they promotes independence for Puerto Rico or free association, which Puerto Rico people would lose the American Citizen and turn Puerto Rico into a socialist country. Despities this, some other democrats support statehood, just to provide two extra liberal voices in the Senate.
