Just a programming note for readers:
The House has just opened up the vote for consideration of a 90 minute debate upon H.R. 2499 – Puerto Rico Democracy Act of 2009. To see the live streaming coverage, go to C-Span here.
UPDATE: 4.29.2010
The House has passed H.R. 2499 with the deliberately opaque language asking Puerto Ricans if they are happy with their current government and opening the door to the progressive movement’s statehood push.
The Roll Call Vote record is here.
Glenn Beck’s breakdown of this bill is here.
