Thomas V. Miller Jr. (born December 3, 1942), known as Mike Miller, is the president of the Maryland Senate. He has been a state senator representing the 27th District since 1975 and has served as president since January 1987, longer than any other senate president in Maryland history.[citation needed]

Miller was born in Clinton, Maryland, and attended Surrattsville High School. He graduated from the University of Maryland, College Park with a B.S. in business administration in 1964, and graduated from the University of Maryland School of Law in 1967 with an LL.B. degree.[1] In 1971, he was elected to the Maryland House of Delegates from the third legislative district of Maryland in Prince George's County, and served in that position until his election to the state senate in 1975.[citation needed]

The Senate office building in Annapolis is named after him due to his being the longest-serving Senate president in the history of the state legislature.

The first of ten siblings, Senator Miller is married, has five children and fourteen grandchildren, and lives in Chesapeake Beach, Maryland.[2]

Miller was featured in the Netflix documentary, "The Keepers," for his role in being opposed to a bill seeking to increase the statute of limitations of sexual abuse victims. [3]
