Socialist Labor Party

The Socialist Labor Party (SLP) is a political party in the United States that advocates for socialism, aiming to establish a system where the means of production are owned and controlled by the workers. Founded in 1877, the SLP emphasizes the importance of class struggle and seeks to address issues such as economic inequality, workers' rights, and social justice. It promotes a vision of a society where resources and wealth are distributed more fairly, contrasting with capitalist principles. The SLP has historically focused on labor rights and the political representation of the working class.
