Our fall edition of GACS Today features an interview with Labor Commissioner Mark Butler as he discusses available resources for small and large business owners. But there is more to the interview. Below we dive deeper into who Mark Butler is and how he came to be Georgia’s Department of Labor Commissioner.
Q: Tell us a little about your public service career. What prompted you to run for a House Seat?
A: I always had a strong interest in politics. I was one of those weird kids that thought it was interesting. My college major was public administration. And after college, I went back to the family business in Carrolton. The first thing I did was volunteer to help a gentleman run for an open house seat. He won. That man ended up not being the person he said he was going to be and continued to run with no opposition. Finally, I told myself that if no one runs against him, I’m going to run just because no one else has and to give the people in our area a choice. They chose me by a wide margin; I had 56% of the votes.
I was the first in this house seat as a republican and served two years as a minority caucus member. We had a republican controlled Senate and a republican Governor, but not a republican house.
