for the people of Puerto Rico ). Otherwise, there would be real questions about the vote's legitimacy and its ability to reflect accurately the will of the people. Id. Furthermore, the Department has determined that the plebiscite ballot language contains several ambiguous and potentially misleading statements, which may hinder voters' ability to make a fully informed choice as well as efforts to ascertain the will of the people from the plebiscite results. The statements of concern are as follows: The ballot's description of the Statehood option contains the following statement: I am aware that Statehood is [the] only option that guarantees the American citizenship by birth in Puerto Rico . This statement is inaccurate when considered in the context of all available status options, as under current law, Puerto Ricans have an unconditional statutory right to birthright citizenship. The sentence therefore is potentially misleading and reinforces the ballot's flawed omission of an option for retaining Puerto Rico's current territorial status.
