Statehood supporters planted a series of miniature American flags along a stretch of grass leading up to the Mayor’s House in San Juan, Puerto Rico, on Friday after Carmen Yulín Cruz was accused of lowering the U.S. flag as part of a demonstration for a jailed independence leader.
Several prominent Puerto Ricans locked themselves in a jail cell symbolically for 15 minutes on Wednesday to protest the continued imprisonment of independence fighter Oscar López Rivera, who has been jailed for the last 32 years. Mayor Cruz participated, writing “I love you Oscar” on the wall of the cell, according to El Nuevo Día.
The cause is a popular one in Puerto Rico, where the demonstration attracted the likes of Calle 13’s René Pérez, former baseball player Carlos Delgado and ex-Puerto Rican Gov. Aníbal Acevedo.
But the protest brought controversy for Mayor Cruz, when statehood supporters accused her of lowering the U.S. flag to show solidarity with the protesters -- an allegation the Cruz denies.
“We’re showing our indignation over Carmen Yulín’s arbitrary action,” José Pablo Vivaldi, the vice president of the National Progressive Party Youth that organized the flag-planting, told Puerto Rican daily El Nuevo Día.
Cruz responded by saying that her accusers are “very comfortable in the sewer of lies and defamation.” Prior to the miniature flag planting, she posted two images of the U.S. flag on the Mayor’s residence to Twitter. http://www.primerahora.com/noticias/gobierno-
Nevertheless, the accusations ruffled feathers among a pro-statehood movement that has pushed aggressively since November to get the U.S. Congress to make the island the 51st state.
Resident Commissioner Pedro Pierluisi, one of the island’s most prominent statehood supporters, sounded off on the issue.
“I’ve heard that in San Juan they’ve basically lowered the United States flag and I think that’s not good at all,” Pierluisi said, according to Primera Hora. “Puerto Rico is a U.S. territory, we are American citizens. We should respect not only our flag, but also that of the United States.”
Puerto Rican law specifies that the island’s flag and that of the United States must fly on government buildings at the same height.
Despite his opposite to the alleged flag-lowering, Pierluisi said he favored pardoning López Rivera.

"Puro teatro" Carmen Yulin management
"Carmen Yulin is the same person who questioned the costs of advertising and if we evaluate its hiring pace in four years will be spent on advertising over $ 8 million," said the lawmaker.
The NPP representative Jorge Navarro Suarez allegedly claimed that while there is economic chaos in the town of San Juan, Mayor Carmen Yulin Cruz has awarded nearly thousand contracts for professional services and does not face to introduce his budget message sanjuaneros . Also, the "disorganization and arrogance" of the mayor makes his cabinet runs out.
"Where is the economic crisis that denounced alleged when he fired over 600 employees and reported today in the Office of the Comptroller of 932 wasteful contracts for professional services, which include companies and individuals from outside of San Juan? The mayor is pure theater, live events participate populist and barely attends his duties as mayor. If you arrive at the City Hall does after 3:00 pm. He has ranted an alleged financial crisis, has questioned the costs of advertising and in just two months in office had already hired more than half a million dollars in advertising and image services with the same company you used in the campaign, "said .
"Carmen Yulin is the same person who questioned the costs of advertising and if we evaluate its hiring pace in four years will be spent on advertising over $ 8 million dollars. This does not include the cost of unnecessary signs in the Natatorium to change its image. As we see an excess in hiring assistants and advisers to small matters, "denounced the legislature to anticipate that Carmen Yulin not offer budget message he is not prepared to defend it.
He also noted that "The Municipal Police bully style does not support the Mayor and Police Commissioner Calixto Rodriguez. This gentleman was awarded forged after the cafeteria for Betsy against former mayor Jorge Santini. Mr. Rodriguez holds a persecution against the police and do not have a coherent plan. The unrest also evident when the mayor holds a giant state police escort and municipality of Caguas with large salaries. "
The lawmaker said the mayor "has been left alone."
"Your office has been gradually giving following determinations arrogance and erratic mayor. The most recent cases are those of Francisco Medina CFO who won $ 11.500 per month could not remain in office because Carmen Yulin was forcing him to take steps contrary to sound financial management.His principal assistant mayoral campaign and Lizi Maldonado was also due to several disagreements with Yolanda Zayas who is the president of the Municipal Legislature but assumed roles bureau chief Yulin. Likewise gave human resources director Belkin Nieves Gonzalez who has been brought in persecuting employees identified with Jorge Santini, "said Navarro, adding that the press director Maru Quintero was the first to give can not control the errors of Carmen Yulin during the festival of San Sebastian Street.
