SAN JUAN (AP) – After the closing of the office in New Jersey of the Puerto Rico Federal Affairs Administration (PRFAA), the dependency only has offices in its Washington headquarters, Orlando, New York, and Chicago.
According to PRFAA Executive Director Eduardo Bhatia, the last employee that remained in the office of Newark, New Jersey, was transferred to the office in New York because of the cuts the agency suffered, according to published reports.
During the current fiscal year, PRFAA suffered a $4 million reduction when compared to the $10.2 million it received in Fiscal Year 2005.
After the cuts, the offices in Hartford, Connecticut; Cleveland, Ohio; Springfield and Boston, Massachusetts; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Los Angeles, California; and Houston, Texas were closed.
