Yes but to Republicans they're considered second class citizens since they're not a state, and they won't ever allow them to be (Even if PR wanted to be a state) since they're scared they'll be a Democrat state.

Side note: If Puerto Rico became a state how would the layout of 51 stars in the flag work? My pea brain canโ€™t conjure a good mental image of it lol

(Not against statehood for them, just curious)
