U.S. is an Empire that refuses to leave the sovereign nation, Puerto Rico.

Powerful, factual, and the right thing to do

It would be a national disgrace if soldiers who fought, bled, died and were buried under the United States flag continued to be denied equal medical treatment. We are not begging for a fifty-first star on the United States flag. What we are saying is the price for placing that star on the United States flag has been paid in full with the currency of blood. Our account is satisfied.

He called upon the Special Committee to remind all Member States that the sovereign right of 4 million Americans to vote in national elections was obstructed by legislation that could easily be amended by Congress.

ANTHONY MELE, Chairman, Sixty-fifth Infantry Regiment Honour Task Force, said the 1914 Jones Act granted full United States citizenship to all Puerto Ricans on the island and their progeny. It afforded them equal protection under the law and was guaranteed by the Bill of Rights. The United States could not honour its signature to the United Nations Charter while it denied sovereignty to one segment of its own citizenry, justified by an arcane piece of extraneous legislation.

4 Million American Citizens residing on the Island of Puerto Rico are precluded from voting in national elections violating the US Constitution. "Esteemed Ambassadors...Remove the provisions that deny national elections from the people of Puerto Rico and then will an equitable, peaceful, political remedy be achieved by the courage of the ballot box and not by the cowardice of the terrorist bomber."
