About Sheila

One of Us — Always.

Sheila Butt is Maury County. For over 35 years, she and her husband Stan have raised their family on a small farm here, built community here, and given back to this land they love. She never became one of “them” in Nashville — she was always one of “us” in Maury County.

Elected to the Tennessee State House in 2010, Sheila served 8 years as your State Representative for District 64, rising to Majority Floor Leader. She won the 2022 Mayor’s race with 6,945 votes and has since delivered real results: zero tax increases, closing a costly landfill, passing the Jackson Law, expanding Veterans Services, and protecting the Duck River.

“Some people take polls. I take a pulse. The pulse of Maury County has always been encouraging to me.”

Now as the Republican Nominee, Sheila is asking for your vote again to keep building a safe, fiscally strong, and family-friendly Maury County. #TeamMaury
