    Separate Interests to National Agendas Hispanic-American Members of Congress in the Civil Rights Era, 1945–1977

    Separate Interests to National Agendas hispanic-american members of congress in the civil rights era, 1945–1977 In June 1952 two long-running but often dissimilar paths of Hispanic-American congressional history converged, if only for a moment. At issue was the transformation of Puerto Rico from a colonial territory to a U.S. commonwealth. Under Puerto Rico’s proposed constitution, the island’s new government, the Estado Libre Asociado (Free Associated State or ELA), would be linked to the U.S. mainland by matters involving foreign affairs, but its authority to govern locally would be enhanced. Congress initially approved the concept, but quickly split over a constitutional human rights provision that had wide support among the Puerto Rican people. In the U.S. Senate, one faction sought to establish Congress’s ability to approve or reject amendments to the island’s constitution, essentially stripping Puerto Ricans of sovereignty.1 One such advocate bluntly argued that Congress essentially had the option to “give them a constitution or not give it to them.” Dennis Chavez of New Mexico, on the other hand—often that chamber’s lone proponent for boosting Hispanic civil rights—pushed back: “The Puerto Ricans did not ask us to take [their political rights]; we took them,” he said. In areas of the world where the U.S. was then working to contain the spread of communism, including in the Caribbean Basin, Chavez noted that America’s efforts would be aided by treating Puerto Ricans with more equanimity.2 Chavez’s intervention in the debate foreshadowed an important trend in this era—the increasing cooperation among advocates for Hispanic issues on a national scale.

Nancy Pelosi (D–Calif.) 8th District, Most of San Francisco Link to Profile Archives: October 2008 | April 2007 (PIA) | November 2006 | 109th Congress | 108th Congress | 107th Congress | 106th Congress | 105th Congress | 104th Congress CQ Politics in America Profile (Updated: May 15, 2009) The first female Speaker of the House, Pelosi is always impeccably dressed and polished in front of TV cameras and combines the style of Jackie Kennedy with the iron will of Margaret Thatcher. She has a ready smile and studied graciousness, but can be as hard-nosed as any high- level figure in Washington. She inspires admiration among Democrats — and loathing among conservatives. Pelosi (pa-LO-see) spent her first two years in charge of the House berating an unpopular president from the opposing party while trying to keep her modest majority unified in staving off his lame-duck round of legislative priorities. She assumed a much different role in 2009, holding together a larger collection of Democrats behind President Obama’s ambitious agenda while acting as his cheerleader-in-chief at the Capitol.
