The National Caucus of Labor Committees (NCLC) is a political cadre organization in the United States founded and controlled by political activist Lyndon LaRouche, who has sometimes described it as a "philosophical association".
LaRouche is the NCLC's founder and the political views of the NCLC are virtually indistinguishable from those of LaRouche. For more information on these views see the article "Political views of Lyndon LaRouche" as well as the main article titled "Lyndon LaRouche". An overview of the LaRouche's organizations is in "LaRouche movement".
The highest group within the NCLC is the "National Executive Committee" (NEC), described as the "inner leadership circle" or "an elite circle of insiders" which "oversees policy". The next most senior group is the "National Committee" (NC), which is reportedly "one step beneath the NEC".

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“A committee is organic rather than mechanical in its nature: it is not a structure but a plant. It takes root and grows, it flowers, wilts, and dies, scattering the seed from which other committees will bloom in their turn.”
—C. Northcote Parkinson (1909–1993)
