The Veneto Autonomous Region Movement (Movimento Veneto Regione Autonoma, MVRA) was a Venetist political party active in Veneto.
MVRA was launched in 1987 by two groups of splinters from Liga Veneta, one led by Geppino and Umberto Vecchiato and the other by Giulio Pizzati who had launched Liga Federativa Veneta (LFV) in 1983.Francesco Jori, Dalla Łiga alla Lega.

In the 1992 general election MVRA gained 1.5% of the regional vote.Francesco Jori, Dalla Łiga alla Lega. Storia, movimenti, protagonisti, Marsilio, Venice 2009, p. 80Ministry of the Interior – Historical Electoral Archive
By 2000 the party was merged into Liga Veneta Repubblica (LVR). Pizzati's son, Lodovico, would later form other Venetist parties.
