For nearly twenty years, Brent Littlefield has been active in politics and public policy.

As a Republican political consultant based in Washington, D.C., he has worked on races at every level all across the United States; including the campaigns of Governor Bobby Jindal, U.S. Senators Susan Collins and Arlen Specter, projects for the Republican National Committee, and multiple members of Congress and local office holders.

At a young age Brent started in broadcasting working as a radio personality, in television production and later as a local NBC network affiliate employee.

While in college studying political science, he became involved in grassroots politics.  He was elected to the Republican State Central Committee, as College Republican State Chairman, and to the County Republican Committee.  He also won his first election - for student Vice President and President - against one opponent who later became a Democrat State Senator.

He worked with Governor John McKernan’s successful re-election campaign, the closest gubernatorial campaign in his state's history.  Directing efforts in three communities where the campaign plan predicted heavy losses, he produced wins despite facing a voter registration deficit in all three heavily unionized communities where Democrats outnumbered Republicans 2 to 1.

Brent led the ballot access effort for Rep. Olympia Snowe’s campaign for the U.S. Senate, served as the Communications and Political Director for the future State Senate President’s campaign for Congress and staffed the State Senate campaign of the House Assistant Republican Leader.

In 1995 he came to Washington to serve on the Congressional staff of Rep. James B. Longley. The following year he ran Longley’s re-election campaign, a race that became the testing ground for attack ads from the DCCC, DNC, national union and liberal attack group efforts using independent expenditures to unseat a Republican.

Brent Littlefield then joined the nation’s small business advocacy group NFIB, the National Federation of Independent Business, where as a Regional Political Director he helped build a network of small businesses to broaden the group’s political program to even the playing field for free enterprise candidates.

The Washington Post front page on Election Day in 1998 reported on his efforts as one of the people and organizations impacting the national mid-term congressional elections. He also led NFIB’s national media effort to highlight the need for IRS tax code reform.

In 2000 he co-founded the Washington, D.C.-based firm Political Solutions. For eight years he helped build the firm’s client roster to include Governor Bobby Jindal, Fred Thompson for President, Republican U.S. Senators Susan Collins, Arlen Specter and Jim DeMint, the Republican National Committee, Congresswoman Shelley Moore Capito, Congressman Tim Murphy, the Maine Senate Republican Caucus, the National Association of Home Builders, Americans for Job Security and many other state and local office holders.

Through the firm he also helped direct NFIB’s large program of independent issues expenditures. He created and led multiple coalitions between corporations and organizations to highlight issue concerns before Congress and state capitals.

During his time with Political Solutions he was the recipient of numerous Pollie Awards from the American Association of Political Consultants, of which he has been a member, for his creative work on behalf of Republican candidates and conservative-minded organizations.

Brent has been sought by leading publications, television networks and magazines as an analyst and commentator appearing on the national FOX News Channel, on the evening newscast for ABC’s Washington News affiliate and on numerous radio shows. He has been cited in all three Capitol Hill newspapers: Politico, Roll Call and The Hill. He has also appeared in the pages of Politics magazine (formerly known as Campaigns & Elections).  

He has been a guest lecturer at both the Leadership Institute and at American University’s Center for Presidential and Congressional Studies and he is an active member of the National Association of Republican Campaign Professionals (NARCP).

Having lived throughout Maine, in Charlotte, N.C., and in Seattle, Brent currently resides in the Washington suburb of Alexandria with his wife, Gretchen Littlefield.
