National Executive Director
Gregg Keller
Gregg Keller serves as the Executive Director of the American Conservative Union (ACU), America’s oldest and largest grassroots conservative organization. ACU is the leading entity in providing conservative positions on issues to Congress, administration officials, state governments, the media, political candidates and the public. ACU also hosts CPAC – the Conservative Political Action Conference, the nation’s largest gathering of conservatives annually.
Previously, Keller served as the National Executive Director of the Faith & Freedom Coalition (FFC), one of the country’s largest social conservative public policy organizations, with more than 500,000 members and affiliates in 24 states. FFC was founded by Chairman Ralph Reed in late 2009. In 2010 FFC helped turnout the largest electoral participation by social conservative voters ever seen in a non-Presidential election. FFC executed 58.8 million voter contacts to social conservative households in 2010, educating and turning out their voters in 24 states and 111 races. Election night polling by Public Opinion Strategies showed that 32% of all voters in 2010 self-identified as Christian conservatives, the highest number ever recorded for a non-Presidential election.
In 2008, Keller served as National Coalitions Director on Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign. In that capacity he managed outreach to the conservative community, and oversaw all coalition outreach in 21 states. In 2006 Gregg was Campaign Manager on the U.S. Senate campaign of Sen. Jim Talent (R-MO). During the 2004 election cycle, Gregg was Missouri Coalitions and Communications Director for Bush-Cheney 2004 and managed the legal and Election Day Operations (EDO) efforts for Bush-Cheney in New Hampshire. Gregg began his political career on the 2002 U.S. Senate campaign of Sen. Talent and subsequently held positions in the Senator’s official U.S. Senate office.
Gregg and his wife of 10 years Lorie have three children Bobby, Eleanor and Elizabeth.
