Progressive Federation (in Spanish: Federación Progresista; FP) was a socialist, ecologist and pacifist political party in Spain. Its was created in 1984 by a group of spliters of the Communist Party of Spain (PCE) led by Ramón Tamanes.

FE was officially registered in December 1984, and in February 1985 the party launched its programmatic manifesto. The platform called for a green, red and white alternative for Spain. In July 1985 FP held its constituent congress, and the next year the party participated in the Anti-NATO Civic Platform. In 1986 FP joined United Left, leaving the coalition in 1987. In 1988 the party disappeared.

Ramón Tamanes was elected MP (in the lists of the United Left coalition) in the general elections of 1986.
