The Socialist Front (Spanish: Frente Socialista, FS) is a coalition of far-left and pro-independence political organizations in Puerto Rico.
Its supporters in New York City are organized in the Working Group on Puerto Rico.
In 2006, the leader Jorge Farinacci García died of cancer,[3] prompting a message of condolences from the Party for Socialism and Liberation.
As a coalition of multiple tendencies, opinions often vary internally, however, amongst its stated public positions; it has supported general strikes,[1] supports the presidency of Nicolás Maduro,[citation needed] and has previously condemned acts of terrorism, saying:Motivated by the esteem and respect for human life that inspires our socialist ideals, we reject all attacks that irresponsibly or indiscriminately attempts against the life of any human being.
In the 2004 elections, the Socialist Front promoted a voting boycott but condemned the MINH's support for the pro-Commonwealth Popular Democratic Party (PPD).
