Boricuas Unidos en la Diáspora

A national advocacy organization of Puerto Ricans in the United States working toward a free, just, and prosperous future for our homeland.

[Hartzell @HartzellForKC]

🚨 ENDORSEMENT ALERT! 🚨

This campaign, OUR movement, is one grounded in love and liberation. No one is free until we all are free, and it is an honor, privilege, and pleasure to receive the endorsement of @BUDPR (Boricuas Unidos en la Diáspora)

“Hartzell Gray is the kind of bold young leader that this moment demands and that the issue of Puerto Rico’s status needs,” said BUDPR President Alberto Medina. “With allies like Hartzell in Congress, our community will continue to fight for decolonization so that we can free Puerto Rico after 128 years of U.S. rule.”

Mayra Rivera-Vázquez (@mayra4congress) will fight for South Carolina's Lowcountry in Congress with the same tenacity she has been fighting alongside the Puerto Rican Diaspora for years. At every turn, Mayra has stepped up to the plate, advocating for displaced families harmed by Act 22 tax evaders, making sure Puerto Rico's farmers have a shot at feeding our own people or standing up so that Puerto Rican self-determination and sovereignty was front and center in the Democratic Party platform. We are proud to stand with Mayra and endorse her candidacy because Mayra has stood with us and will continue to do so as the next Congresswoman from SC-1.

Mayra Rivera Vázquez luchará por el "Lowcountry" de Carolina del Sur en el Congreso con la misma tenacidad con la que ha luchado, durante años, junto a la diáspora puertorriqueña. En cuanto a defender nuestra gente se refiere, Mayra ha tomado acción: abogando por las familias desplazadas y perjudicadas por los evasores contributivos de la Ley 22; asegurándose de que los agricultores de Puerto Rico tengan la oportunidad de alimentar a nuestra propi pueblo; o alzando su voz para que la autodeterminación y la soberanía de Puerto Rico ocuparan un lugar central en la plataforma del Partido Demócrata. Nos enorgullece respaldar a Mayra y apoyar su candidatura, porque Mayra ha estado con nosotros y seguirá estándolo como la próxima congresista por el 1er Distrito de Carolina del Sur (SC-1).

It's time to elect bold young leaders who believe in Puerto Rico's independence!

We're proud to endorse @HartzellForKC in the Missouri 4th District U.S. House Race. We can't wait to work with him in Congress to support Puerto Ricans in the U.S. and in our homeland!

[Boricuas Unidos en la Diáspora @BUDPR]

Puerto Rican sovereignty is the just and progressive outcome to 128 years of U.S. colonial rule over Puerto Rico.

It's time for courageous candidates and members of Congress to take a stand for the liberation of our people!

[Alberto C. Medina @AlbertoMedinaPR]

Puerto Rico has been a U.S. colony for 128 years.

That's not just a Puerto Rican problem—it's an American injustice that all people in the U.S. should take action to address.

[Boricuas Unidos en la Diáspora @BUDPR]

Seguimos apoyando a candidatos federales en Estados Unidos, como @CoriBush, @mayra4congress y @SenadoraJulie, que se comprometan con la soberanía para Puerto Rico.

¡Vamos a transformar como se trata el tema del estatus de PR en la política estadounidense! https://t.co/QcxRTJ1eOk

[Boricuas Unidos en la Diáspora @BUDPR]

We're proud to announce our endorsement of @mayra4congress in the SC-01 election to the U.S. House.

Mayra is a member of our Board of Advisors, a long-time champion for justice in Puerto Rico and in the diaspora, and a steadfast supporter of our nation's sovereignty.

[Boricuas Unidos en la Diáspora @BUDPR]

Like all the candidates we are endorsing in the 2026 midterm cycle, Mayra Rivera-Vázquez is committed to Puerto Rico's decolonization. She has a track record in pro-sovereignty movements in Puerto Rico and she's ready to advocate for it in the U.S. Congress!

@libertadlamarq @lorddeanington If you think the United States should go around invading countries in order to “fix them”—you’re an imperialist.

[Boricuas Unidos en la Diáspora @BUDPR]

Puerto Ricans don't want war with Cuba or with any of our Latin American neighbors. Shame on the pro-statehood, pro-Trump "leaders" who bow at the feet of the U.S. empire.

We need a free Puerto Rico so we can be free of these people.

Our leader @lorddeanington breaks it down.

Today we're proud to endorse Julie Gonzales in her race for the U.S. Senate in Colorado.

@SenadoraJulie is the kind of leader Puerto Ricans need in Congress: a courageous ally who is unafraid to say that 128 years of U.S. rule is enough and that it is time to free Puerto Rico!

[Boricuas Unidos en la Diáspora @BUDPR]

This is a time for bold leaders who believe in decolonization and sovereignty for all.

Let's send Julie Gonzales to the U.S. Senate to fight for Colorado, for Puerto Rico, and for all working families and oppressed peoples!

The drugs-for-votes allegations against Puerto Rican governor Jenniffer González proves yet again that the Puerto Rican statehood movement is increasingly led by right-wing, MAGA-aligned fraudsters.

Only independence will free Puerto Rico from these corrupt colonial vultures.

[Alberto C. Medina @AlbertoMedinaPR]

Both statehood and independence have economic pros and cons.

But only independence will give Puerto Rico the tools of sovereignty to shape an economy that centers and benefits our people, not the U.S. corporations and billionaires who have historically exploited Puerto Rico.

[Boricuas Unidos en la Diáspora @BUDPR]

It's offensive to push for Puerto Rican statehood to try to get an advantage in U.S. politics.

Puerto Rico is a colonized nation and our political future is not a partisan toy.
