SAVE THE DATE:
MARCH 30 IN ORLANDO
Forum on 100 Years
of Puerto Rican
American Citizenship
The Jones Act of 1917 provided for the collective naturalization
of the residents of Puerto Rico. Congress subsequently enacted
a “birthright” provision in the Nationality Act of 1940 granting
a native-born status to Puerto Ricans. Yet, many policymakers
in the U.S. and Puerto Rico erroneously believe or deceivingly
propose that U.S. citizenship for island-born Puerto Ricans
residing in Puerto Rico is contingent upon the resolution of the
territorial status of Puerto Rico.
In the special Jones Act 100th Anniversary issue of
CENTRO: The Journal of the Center for Puerto Rican Studies,
University of Connecticut Professor Charles Venator-Santiago
and other experts demonstrate that Puerto Ricans’ U.S.
Citizenship is permanent and irreversible.
Join us for an interesting and engaging conversation on
this important topic with Professor Venator-Santiago
and other invited guests.
