What bennefits would Puerto Rico get if it was a state?
The largest benefit Puerto Rico would gain by being admitted to the union as a State is representation in government. Right now Puerto Rico has one non-voting representative in Congress, and no say in Presidential elections. With statehood, Puerto Rico would have about 6 voting representatives in the House, and 2 Senators along with about 8 Electoral votes in a presidential election. With Statehood, Puerto Rico would receive much more federal money for all sorts of social programs and infrastructure improvements. Puerto Rico would also have more control over its own ports and territory. On the other side of the coin, statehood would mean that Puerto Ricans would lose the federal income tax exemption. Puerto Ricans pay prenty of federal and local taxes, but are exempt from most federal income taxes right now. There is also a cultural argument against statehood. Puerto Ricans are very proud of their Spanish heritage and do not want lose it.
