No you do not need a Constitutional amendment! The Constitution just says the can add states.. does not talk about amendments or how many votes are needed. But since they will do away with the filibuster it will be easy and we can’t stop it!

And at last polling, Puerto Rico did not want statehood. Remaining a territory suited them just fine.
