One goal of the Workingmen’s Party is to protect the rights of skilled workers.
The Workingmen's Party of the United States (WPUS) was established in 1876. This party constituted one of the first Marxist-influenced political parties formed in the United States. It is considered one of the forerunner of the Socialist Labor Party of America.
It was the first labour-oriented political organization in the United States. It was established first in Philadelphia in 1828 and then in New York in 1829.
