Timeline

2017

On January 8, 2017, Torres resigned his post as Electoral Comptroller and was elected and sworn in the next day once again as Secretary of the Senate upon the election of Rivera Schatz to a second term as President of the Senate, becoming the only Senate President to serve two non-consecutive terms in that leadership post.

2012

In January, 2012, Torres was appointed by Governor Luis G. Fortuño as the first Electoral Comptroller of Puerto Rico, a newly created post under Law 222 of 2011. He was confirmed by the Senate by a wide margin with a few notable exceptions, and by a unanimous vote in the House on March 5, 2012. He was sworn in by McClintock, Puerto Rico's Secretary of State on March 9, after resigning his post as Secretary of the Senate on March 8 after almost 7 years and 2 months holding that office.

2010

In August 2010, Torres published his Master's thesis, entitled "Effect of the Full-Time Legislator in the Puerto Rican Legislature".

2009

On January 1, 2009, after McClintock's term ended, Torres became acting president of the Senate, gavelling in the new Senate on January 12, when the legislative body elected Thomas Rivera Schatz as the fourteenth President of the Senate.

In May 2009, Torres was inducted to the Hall of Distinguished Alumni of the Universidad del Este, which is part of the Ana G. Mendez University System.

2008

Rivera Schatz announced on November 26, 2008 that Torres would be reelected as Secretary of the Senate on January 12, 2009, making him the longest-serving Senate Secretary in half a century and the first to serve two consecutive terms under different Senate presidents.

2005

Manuel A. Torres-Nieves, Puerto Rico's Secretary of the Senate of Puerto Rico first served during the tumultuous years of 2005-2008 in which the Senate was controlled by the pro-statehood New Progressive Party (NPP) while the governorship had been controlled by the pro-status quo Popular Democratic Party, served a second consecutive term as Senate Secretary after having served as Acting President of the Senate from January 1–12, 2009, between the Senate presidencies of Kenneth McClintock and Thomas Rivera Schatz. He then served as Puerto Rico's first Electoral Comptroller before his third election as Secretary of the Senate during Rivera Schatz' historic second non-consecutive term as Senate President.

After the 2004 election, incoming Senate President Kenneth McClintock appointed Torres to head the Senate's transition committee and on January 10, 2005, Torres was elected by the Senate as its Secretary, its top staffer.

During the 2005-2008 term, the Senate Secretary confronted the particular challenges created by the split within the majority party caucus over whether former governor Pedro Rosselló should topple McClintock and replace him as Senate President, a split which ended in March 2008 after party primaries, and by the fact that there was a partisan split between the Governor and the Legislative Assembly.

2001

From 2001 to 2004 he was Chief of Staff to the Senate Minority Leader and legislative advisor to the Deputy Mayor of the City of San Juan.

1991

Torres began his public service career in 1991 as Ranking Minority Staffer in the Youth Affairs Committee of the Puerto Rico House of Representatives. He subsequently served in the highly sensitive position of Director of the Ethics Committee Office at the House, Chief of Staff to the House Majority Leader and Advisor to the Director of the Puerto Rico Office of Legislative Services.

1965

Born in San Juan, Puerto Rico on April 9, 1965, and a long-time resident of Puerto Rico's largest public housing project, with his parents' help he was able to excel in school and obtain an associate degree (ABA) and a bachelor's degree (BBA), both in Business Administration majoring in Management with the distinction "Magna Cum Laude" from the Universidad del Este of the Sistema Universitario Ana G. Méndez. He obtained his master's degree in Public Administration (MPA)from the University of Puerto Rico with a major in Administration and Fiscal Policy, with the distinction of "Summa Cum Laude", on June 29, 2011.

A member of the Police Athletic League and the Boys and Girls Club of San Juan, he also excelled in basketball. A widower and a member of the Episcopal Church, he is the father of Jessica and Alex Manuel, a CBP federal agent and the father of Torres' only granddaughter and grandson.
