The correct answer is B)  Puerto Rican men were required to sign up for the draft and fight for the U.S.

The statement that describes what took place soon after Puerto Ricans were granted U.S. citizenship was that Puerto Rican men were required to sign up for the draft and fight for the U.S.

On March 2, 1917, President Woodrow Wilson granted United States citizenship to Puerto Ricans when he signed the Jones-Shafroth Act. Puerto Rico is considered a protectorate of the United States. This island was granted to the United States in 1898, after the US victory over Spain in the Spanish-American War. What President Wilson did was a smart move. He knew the United States was about to enter World War 1 and the US troops needed young men. So he granted Puerto Ricans US citizenship and men were required to sign up for the draft and fight for the U.S.
