ABOUT PUERTO RICO

The Puerto Rican flag is the patriotic symbol of the “Island of Enchantment”. The star represents the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and lies on a blue triangle, which evokes the integrity in our form of government represented by the three angles, each for one of the powers: Legislative, executive and judicial. The three red stripes represent the vital blood that nourishes the three branches of government, which roles are independent and separate. Individual freedom and human rights, essential principles represented by the two white stripes, maintain the balance between the three powers.

PRFAA AT WORK

Every day, the Puerto Rico Federal Affairs Administration is fully dedicated to the task of efficiently representing and promoting the interests of the government of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico before the federal, state and local governments.
