  • The New Progressive Party of Puerto Rico (NPP) is a political party that advocates for Puerto Rican statehood. Following the 2008 general elections, it currently holds supermajorities in the Commonwealth's House of Representatives and Senate, Puerto Rico's sole non-voting delegate to Congress, 48 of Puerto Rico's 78 mayoral seats, and the seat of Governor. Party members, commonly called penepés or estadistas ("statehooders"), include both Republicans and Democrats who favor the integration of Puerto Rico as the 51st state of the Union. In its beginning, the majority of the PNP leaders were also members of the Republican Party, yet the last two elected PNP governors, Carlos Romero Barceló, and Dr. Pedro Rosselló González, are registered Democrats. On the other hand, the party's current President, Governor Luis G. Fortuño caucuses with the Republicans and serves as Puerto Rico's Republican National Committeeman. House Speaker Jennifer González is a Republican while the former Senate President and current Secretary of State Kenneth McClintock is Puerto Rico's Democratic National Committeeman.
