On October 30, 2009, President Obama Signed Executive Order 13517, which directed the Task Force to maintain its focus on the status question. Recommendation # 7: “If efforts on the Island do not provide a clear result in the short term, the President should support, and Congress should enact, self-executing legislation that specifies in advance for the people of Puerto Rico a set of acceptable status options that the United States is politically committed to fulfilling.” This legislation should commit the United States to honor the choice of the people of Puerto Rico (provided it is one of the status options specified in the legislation) and should specify the means by which such a choice would be made. The Task Force recommends that, by the end of 2012, the Administration develop, draft, and work with Congress to enact the proposed legislation. On November 6, 2012, 61% of the elective voters in Puerto Rico request action from the US Congress to start the process to make Puerto Rico the 51st state of the Union. Contrary to the highest principles embrace by Constitution of the United States, Congresswoman Nydia Velazquez and Congressman Luis Gutierrez immediately started a campaign of obstruction against their fellow-kind, the US citizens living in Puerto Rico. Maybe, they are a shame of their inheritance and believe the US citizens living in Puerto Rico are not equal to the task. As US citizen, we believe the contrary. We believe, we deserve to enjoy the same rights and endure the same responsibilities of any other citizen in the United States. The American citizens residing in Puerto Rico spoke loudly giving a clear mandate of 61% to request the statehood for the island. We proudly served this country; we’re ready to become the 51st state of the great union. Our men and women in uniform have fought hard and they have died for our freedom, it's time to thank their effort. It's time to be equal. I believe that statehood will help our Puerto Rican people to unite ourselves and finally be able to progress. Our undefined status throughout all these years has divided us as a society, and has had a great impact resulting in the poor leadership of our government, where the two major political parties can't reach an agreement on anything and has left our nation with very little progress. By becoming a state, all of Puerto Rico and its citizens will have a common goal along with the other 50 states, which will be, how to better serve our great nation of the United States of America. Thus, we call upon you all Congress man and Congress woman, and upon Mr. Barack Obama, the President of the United States, to stand by your oath under the Constitution of the United States of America "that all man is created equal..." Put your action where you put your word. Stop the excuses, and start the process to make Puerto Rico the 51 state of the United States of America.
