The Curtin Labor Alliance (CLA) was a minor Australian political party established in 2000. It was affiliated with the LaRouche Movement and was formed in Western Australia as a joint venture of the Citizens Electoral Council (CEC) and the Municipal Employees Union of Western Australia. The party's chairman was former Australian Labor Party (ALP) MP Adrian Bennett.
The CLA was a registered political party with the Australian Electoral Commission from 2001 to 2005, despite an unsuccessful attempt by the ALP to prevent its registration on the grounds its name was intended to mislead voters. The party contested the 2001 Western Australian state election and 2001 Australian federal election, on both occasions polling a negligible number of votes.
