The New Puerto Rican Independence Movement (Spanish: Nuevo Movimiento Independentista Puertorriqueño, NMIP) was a left-wing pro-independence organization in Puerto Rico. Founded in 1993 by former members of the Puerto Rican Socialist Party, one of its primary leaders was Carlos Gallisá. In 2004, the NMIP merged with the National Hostosian Congress to form the Hostosian National Independence Movement (MINH).
