The party was part of the centre-right coalition Chile Vamos and supported the government of President Sebastián Piñera.
In 2019 the PRI suffered an internal dispute after Hugo Ortiz de Filippi defeated Eduardo Salas in the elections. After this, a group of militants left the party to form another called New Middle Class.
The party lost official registration after failing to get a minimum percentage of the vote in the 2021 elections.
