Guam is not like Puerto Rico, a Commonwealth within the United States. Per the Wikipedia article linked above, there is talk of changing the status of the island, usually within the context of moving into a closer relationship with the US.
But, the Guamanian shadow Representative to the US Congress, has introduced legislation to:
... authorize the Secretary of the Interior to extend grants and other assistance to facilitate a political status public education program for the people of Guam.If we change the status of Guam, will re readdress the status of Puerto Rico? Other US territories? Or is this all about job creation?
Just wondering.
I didn't know they weren't a Commonwealth. Making them part of Hawaii seems a stretch (distance wise) so I would go for the Commonwealth option.
But, for sure, Guam is Good
