The Socialist Republican Union (Template:Lang-fr, USR) was a political party in France founded in 1935 during the late Third Republic which united the right-wing of the French Section of the Workers' International.
The USR was founded by the following parties:
- Socialist Party of France-Jean Jaurès Union
- French Socialist Party (1919)
- Republican-Socialist Party
The USR participated in the Popular Front but was effectively killed by World War II. Most of its members returned to the French Section of the Workers' International or participated in the Rally of Republican Lefts.
