Non-Partisan League  

Definition

  • The Non-Partisan League (NPL) was an independent political movement active in the United States and Canada from 1915 to the mid-1950s. Originally created in North Dakota by former members of the Socialist Party, it stood for the socialists' stated policies but tried to advance them not through the class-based socialist movement but by a broad coalition of labor, farmer, and bourgeois activists.
