Rep. Velázquez,
If you want to show that you're truly serious about the American citizens of Puerto Rico, then seize the moment and advocate in your Congress for the statehood that the majority of Puerto Ricans wants; but do it with firmness, forcefulness, and consistency.
When disaster strikes, the victims are not Republicans or Democrats. They are Americans.
Nine years after Maria, Puerto Rico still isn't ready to face even a Category 1 hurricane. Shame on us.
Until my last day here, I will be fighting to do right by the people.
