GUAM: Bill to allow more home-rule on island issues

A prominent Guam politician has introduced a bill in the local legislature,
in a bid to give the people of the island more leeway in making home-rule
decisions on island issues. Senator Bob Klitzkie introduced Bill 259, which seeks
to ask the US Congress to allow the local legislature to amend Organic Act
provisions relating to local government. Should the bill become law and if the US
Congress were to approves it, the Guam government could amend the Organic Act
in Guam without having to refer to Congress. Senator Klitzkie calls this
process 'patriation'.
