I came into office to do what was correct, not to see what was politically expedient to get re-elected.
From Luis Fortuno
Over 90 percent of parents in Puerto Rico want their children to be totally fluent in English.
I resent Washington telling states, or the residents of those states, what to do and what to think.
I am making sure, as the governor of a territory, that our kids speak fluent English. But having said that, I will tell my wife I love her in Spanish, and I will pray in Spanish, and no one from Washington should come down here and tell us how to go about it.
I came into the Republican party in 1980, when I was a college student at Georgetown.
I watched Reagan turn around the country by lowering taxes and controlling spending, and I'm applying the same principles.
Some people called me a fascist. That's mostly over, but there will be more attacks from the unions.
When I came into office, I could have kicked the can down the road for a little while, or I could do the right thing.
Get government out of our way, and let freedom and the spirit of the American people shine through.
Speaking and writing English perfectly should not be a privilege. To those who try to politicize this matter, I tell them now, do not mess with the future of our children.
