From 2002 to 2004 Ashe attended Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government.[2] While there he concentrated his studies on domestic social policy. He also served as a teaching assistant to Ed Miliband, now a British MP and formerly the leader of the Labour Party, in a course comparing US and northern European social policy. Upon graduating Ashe moved back home to Vermont. Ashe served on the Board of Spectrum Youth and Family Services, a community organization serving at-risk youth, and Housing Foundation, Inc., a non-profit affordable housing organization. He volunteered as a baseball coach in the Old North End's Center City Little League for two years. He lives in Burlington with his partner, Paula.[3] Career and politicsIn July 2004, Ashe successfully sought a seat on the Burlington City Council in a special election to replace Carina Driscoll. He won re-election in 2005 and 2007. Ashe became the youngest member of the Council when elected. Ashe worked at the Champlain Valley Office of Economic Opportunity from 2005 to 2006. In the Fall of 2006, Ashe became a Project Manager at Cathedral Square, a non-profit developer of affordable housing for seniors and people with disabilities. In November 2008 Ashe was elected to the Vermont Senate. He won on a Democratic/Progressive fusion ticket and was endorsed by Senator Bernie Sanders.[4][5] He has won re-election every two years since. In October 2011 Ashe declared himself a candidate for Mayor of Burlington running again on a Democratic/Progressive fusion ticket.[6] While seeking the Democratic nomination for Mayor on November 13, 2011, Ashe tied his opponent, Miro Weinberger, at the caucus each receiving 540 votes after three rounds of voting, forcing them into a second convention held on December 11, 2011.[7] In January 2017, Ashe was elected President Pro Tempore of the Vermont Senate by his fellow Senators.
