ouncil Member Michael Brown is a forceful and progressive voice in Spartanburg County Council, dedicated to social and economic justice, public safety, and civil and human rights.

First elected in 2008 to represent Spartanburg County District One, the Democratic lawmaker has established a reputation for principled and independent stands, unafraid to take on the tough issues and speak his mind for his constituents. As a lawyer by profession, being an advocate for people in dealing with the equal justice has been a priority.

"I embrace the motto of my undergraduate institution, 'Service is Sovereignty' wholeheartedly. Being a servant leader requires sacrifice and a fiduciary duty to the people I serve. It is my honor to work to promote economic development for Spartanburg, promote a diverse community presence in enhancing the county's legacy and its future and to champion comprehensive neighborhood planning."

He has aggressively represented the needs of the vulnerably undeserved people in his district and throughout the Spartanburg County. He has vigorously advocated for a wide range of social, economic concerns and bread and butter issues that affect their daily lives. He has earned a reputation as an effective council member who works in a bipartisan manner to achieve results for his constituents of District One.

The Councilman has been a strong proponent of safe communities, affordable housing, the homeless, low income energy assistance, job training, making education affordable and universal, just public safety policies, the establishment of a constituents recognition program, and protection of the constitutional rights of all people. He is the current chair of the Council's Public Safety Committee and Vice-Chair of Economic Recruitment and Development.

Councilman Brown has been a leader in the bipartisan effort in Spartanburg County Council to pass ordinances and policies that enrich all the citizens of Spartanburg County.
