The Progressive Republicans (French: Républicains progressistes) were a parliamentary group in France active during the late 19th century during the French Third Republic.
The group was formed in 1889 after a split from the Opportunist Republicans majority and constituted the parliamentary right-wing after the monarchists' decline during the end of the century.
The Progressive Republicans were later reunited into the Liberal Republican Union (French: Union libérale républicaine).
