About
Daniel Miller is a lawyer, activist, and writer living in Philadelphia. Besides practicing law, he has an extensive background in advocacy. When Daniel moved to Brooklyn in 2015 he founded The Psychedelic Society of Brooklyn, a group dedicated to the legalization of psychedelics for therapeutic purposes. During his time running the group, he held meetings, lectures, and presentations to educate the community, collaborated with drug policy organizations on a variety of events and projects, including The Psychedelics Because Campaign, and wrote about psychedelics for the press.
It was after the 2016 presidential election that Daniel started The Society for Constitutional Protection. He believed it was absolutely essential for all Americans to do what they could to fight back against the rise of authoritarianism. And given his background in the law, Daniel decided his contribution would be teaching people about the Constitution and our system of government. To that end, he has given presentations and lectures on a wide range of timely constitutional topics, including the First and Fourth Amendments, gerrymandering, freedom of speech, Checks and Balances, the merits of representative democracy, the Federalist Papers, among many others. He has also written a number of op-eds on civics and politics.
Daniel is a graduate of Princeton University (2005, A.B. Astrophysics) and Georgetown Law School (2011). After graduating law school, he clerked for a federal judge in Ohio before taking a job as the Associate Policy Director for the Ohio Business Roundtable.
