National Progressive Front

The National Progressive Front (NPF; Arabic: الجبهة الوطنية التقدمية al-jabhah al-waṭanīyah at-taqaddumīyah) is a united front and coalition of six political parties which hold a majority of seats in the Arab Congress, the federal bicameral legislative assembly of the Arab Union. It is led by the National Command of the ruling Arab Socialist Ba'ath Party; the five non-ruling member parties of the NPF officially support the Ba'ath Party, and are generally subordinate to its policy. The NPF's counterpart is the National Alliance, a coalition of five opposition parties in the Arab Congress; the only neutral Congress seats not part of either coalition are the 18 held by independent politicians.

The NPF consists of the following political parties:


 * Arab Socialist Ba'ath Party
 * Arab Communist Party
 * Democratic Front
 * Arab Social-Democratic Party
 * Arab People's Revolutionary Union
 * Arab People's Party
