The '''American Council of Bolsheviks''' ('''ACB''') was a [[Marxism–Leninism|Marxist–Leninist]] organization in the [[United States of America|United States]] that split from the [[Party of Communists USA]] in August 2022.<ref>{{Web citation|author=[[People's School For Marxist-Leninist Studies]]|newspaper=[[Twitter]]|title=Declaration of the ACB To The Workers In The PCUSA|date=2022-08-15|url=https://twitter.com/OfficialPSMLS/status/1559265455931637762|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220815194846/https://twitter.com/OfficialPSMLS/status/1559265455931637762|archive-date=2022-08-15|retrieved=2022-09-05}}</ref> It claimed to be supported by 60% of the PCUSA membership.

By December 2023, the ACB disbanded. This was partially the result of pressure induced by a lawsuit from PCUSA.<ref>{{Web citation|author=Tom Smykowski|newspaper=The Socialist|title=When Communists Sue Communists|date=2023-7-16|url=https://socialistmag.us/2023/07/16/when-communists-sue-communists/|retrieved=2025-7-8}}</ref><br />

== Split from PCUSA ==<br />
According to the ACB, the PCUSA failed to uphold [[Marxism–Leninism]] and [[democratic centralism]] and conducted work mainly within its membership and not among the masses. Its leader, [[Angelo D'Angelo]], attempted to overrule a unanimous decision by the Central Committee of the [[League of Young Communists USA|League of Young Communists]].<ref name=":0" /><br />
