According to the Puerto Rico State Commission on Elections (CEE), 58.6% of Puerto Ricans voted for statehood, 29.6% for free association, and 11.8% for independence. The commission certified these results as the final and official of the plebiscite on January 17, 2025.
According to an exclusive in DailyMail, members of Congress are circulating a proposed Executive Order that would renounce U.S. claims to Puerto Rico and encourage it to become an independent nation to avoid the coming fiscal disaster the island represents.
At least two congressional offices have a seven-page draft ‘executive order’ on how the U.S. can help the island territory transition to independence.
A source familiar with the document’s existence disclosed that it is also in the possession of Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, Rep. Tom McClintock (R-Calif.) and potentially other Cabinet secretaries.
Staffers for the Senate Energy & Natural Resources Committee and a staffer for Rep. Tom Kean (R-N.J.) have already held or scheduled meetings about the draft executive order.
The draft proposal claims that the plan would generate $617.8 billion in savings for the U.S. while equipping Puerto Rico with the financial resources needed to establish economic independence.
Puerto Rico faces a debt crisis and has defaulted on its debt since 2016.
Primera Hora said the US would fund Puerto Rico for 20 years to help with the transition.
They must never become a state. It’s not constitutional and they are mostlyt leftists.
The Puerto Rican government denies it is true.

Puerto Rico is a bottomless money pit. Most of them hate the U.S. but they love our money. Cut the cord – and we don’t need to subsidize any “transition” for 20 f’ing years.
Puerto Rico is a “War Prize” from the Spanish/American war. Some prize!
GOOD NEWS FOR AN INDEPENDENT COUNTRY HAITI: They can then go after the CRIMINAL CLINTONS, who looted, robbed and massively contributed to destroying Haiti. (ONE EXAMPLE: MILLIONS OF AMERICA AID DOLLARS INTENDED FOR HURRICANE RAVAGED HAITI WOUND UP IN CROOKED HILLARY’S 2016 PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN)
How do we explain to the US Citizens of Puerto Rico, who have had citizenship for 108 years this year, tough luck we just stripped you of your citizenship!!! with all the rights guaranteed by the US Constitution? Should we expel San Francisco, Chicago, NYC too? Find a better solution!
“Should we expel San Francisco, Chicago, NYC too?”
I was already sold at Puerto Rico going, but now I am absolutely thrilled. Faster please!
In answer to the second part of your question: …. YES!
And don’t forget LA, Portland, and Seattle.
Puerto Rico is an unincorporated U.S. territory. They are citizens, but do not have the same voting rights as citizens living in the states and cannot vote in presidential elections. How do we explain citizenship termination? No explanation necessary. The gravy train is over.
