Unity March for Puerto Rico in Washington D.C. on November 19th is a declaration that
WE THE PEOPLE take a stand and unite our voices in solidarity against laws that do not serve the people of Puerto Rico.
The mission of Unity March for Puerto Rico is simple, to stand in solidarity as ONE people and ONE voice against the unjust law that have been systematically oppressive and crippling to the people and the socio-economic growth and sustainability of the island. We are asking that our leaders make the necessary legislative changes to the Jones Act to uplift the people of Puerto Rico and hearten, support and sustain the economic growth of the island.
