The Respect and Freedom Party, commonly known by its Hungarian abbreviations Tisza Party and TISZA, is a conservative, centre-right, pro-European, and populist political party in Hungary. It is currently the ruling party.

The party was founded in 2020. It rapidly rose to prominence after 2024 when former Fidesz member Péter Magyar joined; members of his non-party movement "Stand up Hungarians Community" assumed the majority of positions in the party to take part in the 2024 European Parliament election, and won 7 seats in the European Parliament. The party is led by Magyar, who was elected party leader on 22 July 2024. Eszter Lakos and Andrea Bujdosó are serving as the party's parliamentary leaders in the European Parliament and the National Assembly, respectively. The party won a two-thirds supermajority in the parliamentary election held on 12 April 2026, with the power to amend the Fundamental Law of Hungary in the National Assembly, ending the 16-year regime of Viktor Orbán and Fidesz.
