Randall Allen Terry (born on April 25, 1959)[1] is an American politician and activist. Terry founded the anti-abortion organization Operation Rescue. Beginning in 1987, the group became particularly prominent for blockading the entrances to abortion clinics; Terry led the group until 1991. He has been arrested more than 40 times,[2] including for violating a no-trespass order from the University of Notre Dame to protest against a visit by President Barack Obama.[3]
In 2003, Terry founded the Society for Truth and Justice and conducted a program he called Operation Witness. In 1998, he ran for Congress in Upstate New York, and in 2006, he ran for a seat in the Florida Senate. Both times, he lost in the Republican primary.
Terry ran in the 2012 Democratic Party presidential primaries. He was the Constitution Party nominee for president of the United States in the 2024 presidential election, and his running mate was Stephen Broden.
