Justice to Puerto Rico
Justice for Puerto Rico refers to the pursuit of equal rights, fair treatment, and political representation for the residents of Puerto Rico, a U.S. territory. It encompasses issues such as the island’s lack of voting representation in Congress, economic challenges, and recovery from natural disasters. Advocates argue for the island's self-determination, meaning Puerto Ricans should have a say in their political status—whether it remains a territory, becomes a state, or seeks independence. Justice also involves addressing historical inequalities and ensuring that federal laws and resources are applied equitably to Puerto Rico.
