Political career

Controversy
On September 15, 2017 Bernstine tweeted "If anyone EVER tries to stop my car on a highway with negative intentions... I will not stop under any conditions."[4] State Democrats and liberal activists called for an apology from Bernstine. After trying to defend himself on Twitter Bernstine sent an email to other members of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives stating "Taking my comments to that extreme is just absurd. My intent was simply to let people know that I, along with what I believe are many others, have grown tired of those who are committing crimes and acts of violence in the name of peaceful protest."[5]
