During this historic moment when the political future of Puerto Rico continues to be debated both on the island and within the federal spheres of Washington, D.C., upon deep reflection I could not pass up on this opportunity to share my political experience not only as a current Presidential Delegate for Joe Biden in Puerto Rico but also as a Puerto Rican who also serves within the United States Army Reserve. As a territorial delegate, I do not enjoy the right to the presidential vote, with the exception of being able to vote in the Democratic Convention while I reside in Puerto Rico. Because of this, I fight every day for the equality of the entire 3.2 million American citizens who live in Puerto Rico.
In 2017, I had the opportunity to attend the first presentation of Joe Biden’s book Promise Me, Dad: A Year of Hope, Hardship and Purpose in New York City, where the Vice President described how the passing of his beloved son Beau helped him find his purpose in life in the middle of such tragic adversity while still finding a way to move forward.
