    There is a debate brewing over whether or not Latinos are being left out of healthcare reform efforts. Latino lawmakers say the reforms don’t apply to the 4 million American citizens in Puerto Rico, and they’re blaming Democratic leaders.
    A new bill unveiled by Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus (D-Mont.) raises questions about whether Puerto Ricans will be able to participate in a health insurance clearinghouse intended to reduce costs for Americans living in the 50 states. The problem with that is President Barack Obama promised Puerto Ricans during the 2008 Democratic presidential primary that they would receive equal healthcare assistance.

    No, PR gets none of the benefits of being a part of the United States.
