The Humane Party is a United States national political party with a focus on animal rights and a sustainable economy. Founded in 2009, the party requires all candidates, officers, and board members to sign an oath abstaining from the use of animal products and services. The party's goals include abolishing the property status of animals, banning all GMOs, and replacing the electoral college with direct democracy.

In 2015, Humane Party CEO Clifton Roberts, a vegan for 18 years, became the party's first presidential candidate. On June 10, 2016, Dr. Amie "Breeze" Harper was announced as the party's vice-presidential nominee.
