Ed. Thank you, mr. Chairman, and Ranking Member for holding this important hearing. I would like to yield all my time to congresswoman gonzalez. Thank you, mr. Chairman. I yield back. The chair recognizes representative gonzalezcolon. Thank you, i want to thank representative rad way began fog her time. He is entitled to his opinion but he does not li in puerto rico, he does not represent the island. No one voted for him. The only ones voted for is the governor and me. Hes a democrat and im a republican, and voters many times rejected him. What were supporting here is what the people of the island voted for, statehood. Thats democracy. Again, anybody can have their own opinion. But coming here the problem is established. We are not treated as equal under the law. The u. S. Congress can do whatever they want with territories. They can do whatever they want with the issue of puerto rico. And yet, we are skill facing a lot of the needs like the state os louisiana, new jersey, florida, tex
