Puerto Rican Workers' Revolutionary Party

The Puerto Rican Workers' Revolutionary Party (Spanish: "Partido Revolucionario de los Trabajadores Puertorriqueños", PRTP) is a far-left group in Puerto Rico.

The PRTP was formed in 1976, and in 1978 founded the Boricua Popular Army (EPB, more commonly known as the "Macheteros") as a mass organization. The EPB broke off from the PRTP in 1984.

The RPTP is affiliated with the Socialist Front.
