The Communist Party USA

The Communist Party USA (CPUSA) is an American political organization founded in 1919 that advocates for socialist principles and worker rights. It promotes a system where industries and resources are collectively owned and operated to ensure economic equality. The party supports social justice, anti-capitalist policies, and government efforts to reduce inequality. While it has historically influenced labor movements, it remains a small, ideological party focused on promoting socialist ideas within the U.S. political landscape. Its activities and positions are rooted in Marxist-Leninist principles, emphasizing class struggle and public ownership.
