Michael Peroutka has a long record of conservative activism, particularly on behalf of the pro-life and pro-gun causes. Peroutka founded and directs the Institute on the Constituion, a conservative non-profit organization.

Peroutka is the Maryland state party chairman and serves on the CP's National Executive Committee. From 1976-87, he worked on health care initiatives in the US Department of Health & Human Services. He left HHS and opened his own law firm after deciding that the programs on which he worked had no constitutional foundation.

Peroutka is also the founder and director of the American College for Cultural Studies (a biblical-constitutionalist education program), and is active in several church and civic organizations.

Peroutka's strong Christian beliefs also influence his political views. He advocates the view that the Constitution is founded on the Bible and it can't be sustained without a biblically-grounded judiciary.

Born and raised near Baltimore, Maryland, Michael Peroutka learned the lessons of serving his church and the surrounding community from his parents, Anthony and Elizabeth Peroutka. Their example of public service inspired him to see public service as his natural calling.

One of five children, Michael Peroutka has served as a law partner with his brother, Stephen, for the past eighteen years in the Pasadena, Maryland law firm of Peroutka and Peroutka, P.A. During that time he has been active in pro-life issues and has assisted and founded many organizations including The Institute on the Constitution (IOTConline.com) that seeks to educate Americans about their own history, heritage and form of government. It was his passion for learning about and restoring constitutional government in his home state that led him to the Constitution Party and its dedication to principle over politics.

Early in his professional career Michael was employed at the United States Department of Health and Human Services. Later, as a young attorney, Michael realized that none of the programs on which he was working were authorized by the United Stated Constitution.

Michael Peroutka lives with his wife, Diane and his children, Timothy, Patrick and Elizabeth in Millersville, Maryland.
