DescriptionJiyu Rengo, or Liberal League, is a free market liberal minor party in Japan. They unofficially support the ruling coalition of the LDP and New Komeito, with very similar economic policies but forging a domestically-liberal agenda. In this Liberal League could be described as a libertarian-leaning party. They are often critical of Japan's relations with the United States.

Liberal League won several seats in the 2001 upper house elections, but only one in 2003's lower house elections. They won no new seats in the 2004 upper house election, and retained their sole lower house seat in 2005.
