The Liberty Alliance of Massachusetts (LAMA), previously known as the Libertarian Party of Massachusetts and Libertarian Association of Massachusetts (LAMA), is a libertarian political party in Massachusetts. It was affiliated with the national Libertarian Party from its founding until 2022, and is now affiliated with Liberal Party USA.
Under the system of political parties and political designations in Massachusetts, the Libertarian Association is often the only third political party to receive enough votes to become an officially recognized party alongside the Republican Party and Democratic Party; although the Green-Rainbow Party is sometimes electorally successful enough to qualify. After losing it in 2020, it regained major party status due to the results of the 2022 elections before losing it again in 2024.
