I have known Blake Butler for over a decade. We worked closely together during the effort to make North Carolina the first state in the nation to pass legislation for industrial hemp. Throughout that process, Blake was one of the key leaders who helped turn what once seemed unlikely into reality.
Blake leads with creativity, integrity and purpose. He is thoughtful and inclusive, brings people together and demonstrates a tireless commitment to the communities he serves. His ability to balance vision with practical action is rare.
It is with full confidence and enthusiasm that I endorse Blake Butler for Asheville City Council…
