Mason Butler's Profile
Mason Butler is a business executive and has helped run a successful IT company for 20 years. Mason and his wife have lived in Alexandria, Virginia for 20 years. He decided to run for City Council after our local government continued to fail to listen to our citizens. From a failed arena project that citizens didn't want to two lawsuits filed by citizens against the city, he knew he could better represent our community. Mason aims to prioritize fixing our aging infrastructure and rebalance our tax base by bringing businesses into Alexandria.
Mason's candidacy is based on moderate political policy. His campaign slogan "meet me in the middle" suggests that we need to bring people together from varying political backgrounds to solve problems. The Forward party offered a "not left or right" approach coupled with integrity and honesty. These are characteristics that Mason lives his life by. All public officials should buy into this approach of service before self and that is why the Forward party made sense.
