The League of Revolutionaries for a New America (LRNA) is a socialist political party in the United States. It was founded by a group in California around Nelson Peery who split from the Communist Party USA in 1968 as they felt the Communist Party was supporting revisionism in the Soviet Union ??? in other words, that they were not being sufficiently Stalinist or Maoist.
Initially known as the California Communist League, the group launched itself nationally as the Communist Labor Party in 1974. They continued to work with the Communist Party, while opposing much of their ideology, until 1993 when they disbanded and refounded the group as the LRNA.
Now based in Chicago, the group supported Ralph Nader in the US Presidential election, 2000 but are significantly smaller and less active than in the past.
