The goal of our nonprofit organization is to promote our social cause, which is to contribute to the decolonization of Puerto Rico, to support the prevailing measures that can be addressed by the federal chamber and senate to achieve a plebiscite in Puerto Rico, and finally to achieve statehood for the island. We will focus the necessary efforts to educate more people about the situation in Puerto Rico and pursue the purpose of the Florida Chapter of the Extended Congressional Delegation.
