Absolutely.  They've been mooching off the US for too long.  They can take their place equal to other US citizens.
And to help a little, Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands will become the state of Puerto Rico.

Yes, as well as the collection of Pacific Islands.   Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands can be one state.

The Pacific Islands only have about 200,000 and are split across the IDL.  That wouldn't be much of a state.  Instead, the US should reannex the Trust Territory, and all other Pacific nations {they'd definitely be better off}.  Then the US could move the IDL over to like 176 E, and everything on the west side become West Pacifica, and the east side become East Pacifica.  Each new state would have approximately 1mil people.
