Daniel Brownstein

South Carolina House of Representatives, District 112, SC

2020 Endorsement

After plastic pellets began washing up on the beaches just outside of Charleston, SC, Daniel was concerned about the lack of response by his elected representatives. The 38-year-old father of two is running to protect the coastal environment from off-shore drilling, over-development, plastic pollution and the effects of climate change.

He also is passionate about creating a justice system that works for everyone. He has spent the past 11 years working on criminal justice reform efforts, including creating and managing innovative programs for a prosecutor’s office, lobbying the legislature to pass an anti-human trafficking bill, and a term on the Charleston County Criminal Justice Coordinating Council, which is changing the way we are using our county jail.

Daniel holds an MBA from the University of South Carolina and works as marketing director of the law firm Richardson, Patrick, Westbrook & Brickman. As the only candidate with school-aged children, he is committed to ensuring all South Carolina students a quality, 21st century education. He is genuine, engaged, and ready to fight for the future of our coast.
