Should Puerto Rico be a state? ft. George Laws Garcia The New Liberal Podcast

Puerto Ricans got US citizenship more than 100 years ago. But despite a century of being American, Puerto Rico still isn't a state. George Laws Garcia joins the podcast to make the case for Puerto Rican statehood. We talk about Puerto Rico's history and how they ended up in this situation, the effect of not being a state on Puerto Rico's economy, and whether there's a realistic path to statehood any time soon.
