I am seeking information about organizations and groups that embrace an universal basic income (UBI), not the benefits or liabilities of such programs. Of the top of my head I know of just one, the 'The Party for Socialism and Liberation' (PSL) here in the United States. Are there any others?

In Poland, we have organization "Dom Wszystkich Polska" (Home of All - Poland). They advocate UBI. They aren't revolutionary at all.

Because I have an interest in the precariously employed and unemployed proletariat living to fight another day.

I know it's not exactly the same as a universal basic income, but the SPUSA supports:
"We call for a minimum wage of $15 per hour, indexed to the cost of living.
We call for a full employment policy. We support the provision of a livable guaranteed annual income."
As well as income for artists and cultural workers regardless of what is produced.

thats all nice and dandy but the problem is that for a reform like that to be passed by a bourgeois gouverment workers militance needed to be at a extreme high(compared to now) and if that militancy should emerge other things than a basic income would be way more important.
