Puerto Ricans Are Fleeing to Florida. What Does That Mean for 2020?

February 1, 2020

Now many Puerto Ricans are relocating to Florida where they’ll be able to use their political power in one of the most important battleground states ahead of the 2020 presidential election. Special Contributor Joie Chen has the report.
