The Irish Socialist Federation (ISF) was an organization which was active in the United States and was founded by James Connolly and others. It had branches in New York and Chicago. In March 1907 a céili was held to launch the organisation. The aim of the party was to raise class consciousness among Irish emigrants in America. Members included James Connolly, ex-ISRP members Jack Mulray and John Lyng, Patrick L. Quinlan and Elizabeth Gurley Flynn. It was aligned to the Socialist Labor Party of America. The official newspaper of the organisation was known as 'The Harp'.
