Butterlands is a minor figure within the Radical Labor Party. After his election as Speaker of the House, he enjoyed an increased profile and led the RLP party list for the Northern State in the April 2018 midterm election.
Before Politics
Butterlands joined the Radical Labor Party Discord on January 29, 2018. Over the next two weeks, he managed to get into half-a-dozen arguments in main and to vote in the first election. He made an unsuccessful run for deputy chairman of the Radical Labor Party during this time as well.
Early Career
As a relative unknown, Butterlands was chosen by Zoë to take her seat in the House of Representatives. He spent the next month arguing passionately with Politophile over minor issues and introducing more bills than any other member of Congress. Sometime in mid-March, Butterlands and Tiebroken led the push to pass the budget over the protests of System, a congressional clerk. Their effort was ultimately a failure, but the crisis surrounding it culminated in a re-evaluation of the role of congressional clerks. The budget passed a few days later.
Rise to the Speakership
After several weeks of downtime, the House of Representatives was confronted with a major issue. The incumbent Speaker of the House, Bakk, was resigning and the parties fell into chaos trying to push their respective candidates for the speakership. The controversy that ensued eventually led to the end of the Jacobin Coalition. Butterlands was elected as speaker when the Libertarians agreed to back his candidacy in exchange for Blade Holdin being appointed as the vice president.
Speakership
Butterlands' speakership began on March 24, 2018. The week between the beginning of his speakership and the dissolution of the first Congress was, arguably, the most active week in congressional history up to that point. The House and Senate passed five bills within a seven-day period all of which were signed into law.
April 2018 Midterm Elections
Butterlands moved to the Northern State for the April midterm elections. He was chosen as the first candidate on the RLP party list in the party's primary election. The RLP went on to win six seats and secure the largest portion of the popular vote out of any party.
The Second Congress
The second Congress took office on April 13, 2018. Butterlands was re-elected as Speaker of the House with the support of all parties excluding the Libertarians. Roughly a week and a half into the new term, Butterlands began to work on pushing an ambitious program of constitutional reforms. Butterlands served as a leader of the push to impeach President Poke during the May Day affair. In securing Bakk's confirmation as vice president on May 1, 2018, Butterlands missed the opportunity to succeed Poke as President of the United States by less than 3 hours.
RLP Leadership Elections
On April 16, 2018, Butterlands was elected as a freshman deputy leader of the Radical Labor Party. On May 2, 2018, he announced his candidacy for the Leader of the RLP. The results of this election should be released on May 6, 2018.
Presidency
After Poke's succession crisis in the wake of the May Day affair, Butterlands ended up in the position of president as a result of the resignation of Bakk and the impeachment of Poke.
