The CPUSA has been banned from holding federal office since 1954, when the Communist Control Act of 1954 was signed into law. The Act also criminalizes members of the party, however, failure to enforce this act has allowed the party to continue on into current times. In 1973, the Supreme Court determined in Communist Party vs Catherwood that the Communist Control Act of 1954 does not prevent the party from being involved in state politics, or from addressing, and promoting solutions to state issues.

- Communist Party USA is a Marxist-Leninist party in the United States.
- The Communist Party USA was formed in Chicago 1919 as two Leninist splinters from the Socialist Party of America: the Communist Party of America (CPA) and the Communist Labor Party (CLP). Both groups had supported Vladimir Lenin, the Bolsheviks and the new Soviet Union, but were different demographically (the CPA was mostly composed of immigrants and the native-born CLP was lead by journalist John Reed). Lenin's Communist International ("Comintern") forced these two groups to merge in order to become the official American section of the Comintern.
