The '''Socialist Party of the United States of America''' (also '''Socialist Party USA''' or '''SPUSA''') is a [[Socialism|socialist]] [[Political parties in the United States|political party in the United States]]. SPUSA formed in 1973, one year after the [[Socialist Party of America]] splintered into three: [[Social Democrats, USA]] (legal successor); the [[Democratic Socialist Organizing Committee]] (split); and SPUSA.

SPUSA describes itself as a [[Big tent|multi-tendency]] socialist party which hopes to win socialism through a "democratic [[revolution from below]]". In contrast to the [[Democratic Socialists of America]] (DSA), SPUSA advocates for "uncompromising independence" from the [[Democratic Party (United States)|Democratic Party]]. SPUSA describes socialism as "[[radical democracy]]", in opposition to "[[capitalism|capitalist]] and [[authoritarianism|authoritarian]] statist systems".<ref name=Principles />

Notable members include [[David McReynolds]], [[Frank Zeidler]], and [[Dan La Botz]]. Former members include [[Ben Burgis]].

== Organization ==
The SPUSA is headquartered at the [[A. J. Muste]] Institute. {{As of|2024|September}}, the Socialist Party had 11 local and state parties. Active SPUSA state parties include [[Socialist Party of Michigan|Michigan]], [[Socialist Party of New Jersey|New Jersey]], [[Socialist Party of Wisconsin|Wisconsin]]. Inactive state parties include [[Socialist Party of California|California]], [[Socialist Party of Maine|Maine]], [[Socialist Party of Kansas|Kansas]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Socialist Party USA Directory |url=https://www.socialistpartyusa.net/directory |access-date=July 7, 2017 |publisher=Socialist Party USA}}</ref>

== History ==

=== Background ===
{{See also|Socialist Party of America}}
In 1958, the [[Independent Socialist League]], led by [[Max Shachtman]], dissolved and joined the [[Socialist Party of America]] (SPA), which was founded by [[Eugene V. Debs]].<ref>{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=8RSuAwAAQBAJ&dq=%22founder+of+the+Socialist+Party+of+the+United+States%22&pg=PT100|isbn = 9781849546546|title = The Dictionary of Labour Quotations|date = September 11, 2013|publisher = Biteback}}</ref> Shachtman had written that [[Ideology of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union|Soviet communism]] was a [[New class|new form of class society]], [[bureaucratic collectivism]], in which the ruling class exploited and oppressed the population, and therefore he opposed the spread of communism.<ref>2008, p. 63.</ref><ref name="Drucker">{{harvtxt|Drucker|1994}}:{{pb}}{{cite book|title=Max Shachtman and his left: A socialist's odyssey through the "American Century"|first=Peter|last=Drucker|publisher=Humanities Press|year=1994|isbn=0-391-03816-8}}</ref><ref name="sovietization">{{cite news|last=Beichman|first=Arnold|author-link=Arthur Beichman|url=http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2002/jul/28/20020728-035033-3037r/?feat=article_related_stories|title=Communism to anti-communism in lives of two rival editors (review two ISI books, ''James Burnham and the struggle for the world: A life'' by Daniel Kelly and ''Principles and heresies: Frank S.

In its 1972 convention, the SPA changed its name to [[Social Democrats, USA]] by a vote of 73 to 34, supported by both Co-Chairmen, [[Bayard Rustin]] and [[Charles S. Zimmerman]].<ref name="NYTimes">

The majority report noted that the name "party" was "misleading" because the SPA no longer sponsored presidential candidates, and also hindered recruitment of activists who participated in the Democratic Party. The name "Socialist" was replaced by "Social Democrats" because many American associated the word "[[socialism]]" with Soviet communism.<ref name="NYTimes"/> The party also wished to distinguish itself from two small Marxist parties.<ref name="NYT27">{{cite news|title=Young Socialists open parley; to weigh 'New Politics' split|newspaper=The New York Times|date=December 27, 1972 |page=25|author=Anonymous|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1972/12/27/archives/young-socialists-open-parley-to-weigh-new-politics-split.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170115221802/http://www.nytimes.com/1972/12/27/archives/young-socialists-open-parley-to-weigh-new-politics-split.html|archive-date=January 15, 2017}}</ref>

The convention elected a national committee of 33 members, with 22 seats for the majority caucus, 8 seats for Harrington's Coalition Caucus, 2 for the Debs caucus, and one for the "independent" [[Samuel&nbsp; H.

=== Founding ===
After their defeat at the convention, members of the two minority caucuses helped to found new socialist organizations. Harrington's Coalition Caucus created the [[Democratic Socialist Organizing Committee]].

The Debs Caucus, led by [[David McReynolds]], formed the Union for Democratic Socialism. On May 30, 1973, the UDS incorporated the Socialist Party of the United States of America.<ref>Busky 2000, pp. 165.</ref> Many activists from the local and state branches of the old Socialist Party of America, including the party's Wisconsin, California, Illinois, New York City, Philadelphia and Washington, D.C. organizations, participated in the reconstitution of SPUSA.<ref name="breakup">Busky 2000, pp. 164.</ref>

After its founding, the party promoted itself as the legitimate heir of the Socialist Party of America.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=VzIMAAAAIBAJ&pg=4934,976309&dq=socialist+party+usa+socialist-party-usa&hl=en|title=Socialists Pick '76 candidate|date=September 3, 1975|work=[[St. Petersburg Times]]|access-date=February 8, 2010}}</ref> SPUSA elected [[Frank Zeidler]], former [[Mayor of Milwaukee]], as its first national [[chairperson]].

== Ideology ==
{{Socialism US}}
SPUSA argues that socialism can only come through [[social revolution]]. SPUSA tendencies include both [[democratic socialism]], for a gradual transformation of society, and [[revolutionary socialism]], for a rapid transformation following a slow "socialist transformation from below" through radically democratic "people's organizations".<ref name=Principles /> SPUSA describes socialism as a [[Radical democracy|radically democratic]] system which "places people's lives under their own control—a classless, feminist, socialist society free of racism, sexism, homophobia or transphobia," and in which "the people own and control the means of production and distribution through democratically controlled public agencies, cooperatives, or other collective groups"; "full employment is realized for everyone who wants to work"; "workers have the right to form unions freely, and to strike and engage in other forms of job actions"; and "production of society is used for the benefit of all humanity, not for the private profit of a few."<ref name=Principles>{{cite web |title=Socialism As Radical Democracy: Statement of Principles of the Socialist Party USA |publisher=Socialist Party USA |access-date=4 June 2023 |url=https://www.socialistpartyusa.net/principles-points-of-agreement |url-status=live |archive-date=December 5, 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191205222624/https://www.socialistpartyusa.net/principles-points-of-agreement}}</ref>

Socialist Party candidates support expanding [[social spending]] and [[social ownership]] of capital. In 2009, Greg Pason's proposals included socializing the [[Health care in the United States|United States health care system]], a steeply [[graduated income tax]], universal [[rent control]] and the elimination of all educational debts and [[Tuition payments|tuition]] fees.<ref>{{cite news|title=Voter Guide / Other third-party candidates for governor |url=http://blogs.courant.com/capitol_watch/2010/01/socialist-party-response-to-ob.html|date=November 1, 2009|work=[[The Press of Atlantic City]]|access-date=February 7, 2010}}</ref> In 1997, Pason called [[auto insurance]] "a [[regressive tax]] against working people".<ref>{{cite news|title=On Politics; Hearing From the Seven Who Are Seldom Heard|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1997/09/14/nyregion/on-politics-hearing-from-the-seven-who-are-seldom-heard.html?scp=8&sq=Socialist+Party+USA&st=nyt|author=Preston, Jennifer|date=September 14, 1997|work=[[The Press of Atlantic City]] |access-date=February 7, 2010}}</ref> Moore was also vocal of his support for [[socialized medicine]].<ref>{{cite web|last=Kinane|first=Sean|url=http://www.wmnf.org/news_stories/5714|title=Brian Moore – Socialist Party USA Presidential Candidate|publisher=[[WMNF]]|date=June 13, 2008|access-date=October 30, 2009|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080618163639/http://www.wmnf.org/news_stories/5714|archive-date=June 18, 2008}}</ref> Moore supported [[economic democracy]] through [[social ownership]] and [[workers' control]] of reigning industrial and [[financial institution]]s.<ref name="CBSNews"/>

== Election results ==
SPUSA has fielded [[Elections in the United States|electoral candidates]] for [[Local government in the United States|local]], [[State governments of the United States|state]], and [[Federal government of the United States|federal]] offices. SPUSA candidates usually run on a SPUSA ballot line, as [[Independent politician|independent]], or as [[Green Party of the United States|Green Party]] candidates.{{Citation needed|date=April 2025}}

SPUSA has often endorsed members of the [[Vermont Progressive Party]] (VPP), such as [[Peter Diamondstone]].<ref name=SocCampClearingHouse2010 /> Most of these individuals were members of the Vermont socialist [[Liberty Union Party]], but not members of SPUSA. These endorsees-but-not-members of SPUSA are not included below.

SPUSA has won several local offices, but never a state legislature, statewide, or federal office.
