Tom Miles is a member of the Mississippi House of Representatives, representing the 75th district (Rankin County and Scott County).[1] Miles is a graduate of Morton High School and Mississippi State University. As a college student, Miles opened a business to pay for his own education.

In 2013, Miles announced a plan to introduce truth-in-labeling laws, which would require country of origin labels for chicken.[2] In 2019 Miles tweeted in favor of a new license plate design which includes the phrase "In God We Trust," after freedom from religion advocates threatened to sue the state over the design.[3]

Miles is a Sunday School teacher at Forest Baptist Church; a member of the Rankin, Scott, and Forest County Chambers of Commerce; the president of Friends of Roosevelt State Park; and a first responder for the Scott County Search and Rescue team.
