Greenland Annexation and Statehood Act

This bill would allow the President to take steps needed to annex or otherwise acquire Greenland as a U.S. territory, including seeking negotiations with the Kingdom of Denmark. After Greenland is acquired, the President would have to send Congress a report listing changes to federal law the President finds necessary to admit Greenland as a State. The report is meant to speed up Congress's approval of statehood for Greenland. Statehood would come after Greenland adopts a constitution that Congress finds to be republican in form and consistent with the U.S. Constitution.
