United States Political Parties

Political Parties are essential to the legislative process. There are many political parties in the United States; however, the two major political parties are the Republican Party and the Democratic Party.  There are multiple minor political parties in the United States. For a full list of political parties and their information, click here.

At National Model U.S. Congress you will be assigned to an elected official and the party of the same person. Model Congress provides this information to you on a non-party basis as we do not endorse any political party. We endorse a knowledge of how government works in the United States, the ability to understand legislation, and a knowledge of the political process.
