Un Paso al Frente (lit. 'A Step Forward')[a] is a proposed electoral alliance established ahead of the next Spanish general election, to be formed by United Left (IU), Unite Movement (MS), Más Madrid and Catalonia in Common (Comuns).[5] The alliance was launched in a political event on 21 February 2026, attended by all Spanish government ministers of the Sumar platform (Ernest Urtasun, Mónica García, Pablo Bustinduy and Sira Rego), except for the second deputy prime minister and labour minister, Yolanda Díaz.[6][7][8]
It aims to supersede the existing Sumar alliance,[9][10] and is left open for other parties (such as Podemos) to join,[11][12] though the latter rejected joining any such alliance.[13] Other parties such as Coalició Compromís, Més per Mallorca and Chunta Aragonesista are expected to join at some point.[14][15] While Díaz was considered by the founding parties as the alliance's prime ministerial candidate,[16][17] she rejected it on 25 February 2026.[18]
