MTGOP Brings on Andrew Pierce as New Executive Director

Aug 29, 2025

HELENA, Mont. – The Montana Republican Party (MTGOP) will bring on Andrew Pierce to serve as its new executive director starting next month.

Pierce, a Hillsdale College graduate with extensive political experience, will manage MTGOP’s operations as it enters the 2026 election cycle and prepares for the 2027 state legislative session.

“We’re thrilled to have Andrew directing our party at this critical time. Republicans have the support of more Montanans than ever, and we will harness that momentum to keep the victories coming,” MTGOP Chairman Art Wittich said.

Pierce will begin serving in the role on September 8, 2025.

“I’m deeply honored to have been chosen by Chairman Wittich and the Executive Board to serve the Republican Party of the best state in the Union. I look forward to working with Republican officials and members to build on MTGOP’s success,” Pierce said.

Under the leadership of Chairman Wittich and Executive Director Pierce, MTGOP aims to deliver the conservative agenda mandated by voters and make Montana an even brighter red state.

“At their best, political parties serve both as local civic associations that amplify their communities’ concerns and as a statewide, unifying force that ensures voters get the policies they voted for. Parties act as the civic glue connecting citizens to their elected officials, empowering ordinary people to participate in self-government without needing to hold office, ” Pierce said.

“Parties also reinforce a vital safeguard: accountability. If elected officials disregard the principles or platform mandated by voters, both the party and voters have means to hold them accountable,” Pierce added.

MTGOP encourages all Montanans who seek responsible, conservative leadership in our state and local governments to reach out and get involved.

BOZEMAN, Mont. – Montana Republican Party Chairman Don “K” Kaltschmidt issued the following statement after sweeping Republican victories:

“The people of Montana have spoken loud and clear—the Treasure State is now bright red! In a stunning show of support, the GOP emerged victorious in all major races. Voters recognized that the future of our great nation was on the line and rallied behind Republican candidates up and down the ballot.

We proudly retired career politician, two-faced Jon Tester, and ushered in a new era with American Warrior Tim Sheehy, elected as Montana’s next U.S. Senator. Tim will be a fierce advocate for every Montanan, embodying the conservative values that Big Sky Country needs in Washington, D.C.

We couldn’t be prouder of our dedicated Republican candidates who worked tirelessly during this election cycle. At every level—local, state, and federal—our Republican elected officials will continue to fight for Montanans and defend our way of life. Together, we will make America great again!”
