The Rally of Republican and Independent French Groups (RGRIF, *Rassemblement des groupes républicains et indépendants français*) was a political movement launched during the 1951 legislative elections by André Liautey, a former Radical-Socialist minister who had distanced himself from his party.

More of an electoral label than a structured political party, the RGRIF served as a convenient banner for candidates seeking electoral endorsements. It capitalized on the voting system that allowed for electoral alliances (*apparentements*). The movement attracted a diverse array of individuals, including Socialists, Radicals, members of the Peasant Party, and former members of the Republican Party of Liberty who were reluctant to join the National Centre of Independents and Peasants despite their political similarities.

The movement's name reflects its ambition to unite centrist voters by referencing both the right-leaning Rally of Left Republicans and the "Independent Republicans," a label frequently adopted by moderate notables after the Second World War.

The RGRIF succeeded in electing several deputies during the 1951 and 1956 elections. These deputies subsequently aligned themselves with various parliamentary groups within the governing coalition of the Third Force. Over time, many joined the National Centre of Independents and Peasants, the Union for the New Republic, or smaller political organizations like the Republican Centre or the European Liberal Party of Jean-Paul David.
