Labour Russia was officially registered by the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation on 9 January 1996, then deregistered on 16 March 2004.

The demonstration took place despite the decree of President Boris Yeltsin banning the activities of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.

[3] Members of the Labour Russia movement took part in clashes with Moscow militsiya on 23 February 1992 (when demonstrators first attempted to break through the barrier chains and were dispersed by OMON forces).

This action, which coincided with the holding of the 6th Congress of People's Deputies of the Soviet Union in the Voronovo state farm near Moscow, despite its large number, marked a dead end in which the “irreconcilable opposition” found itself - the authorities refused to enter into any negotiations with it and the rally did not achieve its goals - the socio-economic course remained unchanged.

This became the basis for suspending the activities of Labour Russia, among other opposition associations that organized resistance to presidential power (the decision to ban eight main parties and movements was issued by the Ministry of Justice on 4 October 1993).

In 1997 and 1998, the leadership of Labour Russia organized mass marches of workers on Moscow, which coincided with the miners’ "rail war."

[6] In 2018, most of the members of Labor Russia joined the United Communist Party, while its activities (in alliance with other leftist forces) continue.
