SATCHA PRETTO, UNIVISION ANCHOR: Puerto Rico begins the process to, perhaps, become the 51st state of the Union. With support from 14 Democrats and 20 Republicans, the island’s Resident Commissioner in the House of Representatives Jennifer Gonzalez Colon filed the bill that would initiate the transition process and change the territory’s status by 2021. The bill proposes the creation of a bipartisan committee in order to identify which statutes need to be modified or abolished, and recommend economic measures to solve the Puerto Rican debt.
