Living Marxism is the official publication of the Committee for a Communist Labor Party (USA). The CCLP was founded on June 25, 2025 as a pre-party formation for the organization of a communist party in the United States which adheres to Marxism and opposes all forms of revisionism, opportunism, and imperialism.
