The Communist Party of Montilla (Spanish: Partido Comunista de la Montilla, PCM) is the sole ruling party of Montilla. It was founded 4 March 1959 as a successor of the guerilla organization Montillan Revolutionary Movement and the Workers' and Peasants' Party of Montilla, who seized power in the 1958 Montillan Revolution. The Montillan constitution describes the party as the "leading force of society, the state and the revolution".

The highest body within the PCM is the Party Congress, which convenes every four years. When the Congress is not in session, the Central Committee is the highest body. Because the Central Committee meets once a year, most day-to-day duties and responsibilities are vested in the Political Council. Since March 2024, the role of General Secretary has been vacant, but it was previously held by Fernando Gallardo, also president of Montilla.
