This petition is important because all people born in American territories are U.S. citizens. American Samoans don't even become citizens, they are nationals. People born in GU, PR, MP, and VI can't vote for presidential elections unless they move to the 50 states or D.C. I always thought this was quite unfair since they are literally Americans on American land but can't vote for their president. Also just like D.C. they don't have representation in Congress. So they can't vote for president, and their delegate to Congress can't vote either. I think this is really undemocratic. If all of them became states, that would be wonderful, but if the government can't do that, at least make Puerto Rico and Guam a state, or you can merge Guam and the Northern Marianas to make the state of Mariana.
