Puerto Rico voted for statehood three times in a row in a referendum run by their legislature.
AOC proposes a constitutional convention that would circumvent the referendum in PR and leave it up to congress (who has never voted for PR to become a state, and will not even confirm DC).
Because letting PRs vote on their own future is neoliberalism.
And then makes some weird argument about Puerto Rico's senate being run by Republicans....unaware they have three separate parties and different idealogical leanings in PR.
