Puerto Rico government transition process

The Puerto Rico government transition process is the process followed by the executive branch of the government of Puerto Rico when it must transition from one governor to another. The process is handled by two committees:

  • the Outgoing Committee on Government Transition, composed of government officers from the incumbent administration, and
  • the Incoming Committee on Government Transition, composed of aides and assistants of the upcoming governor-elect.
