On March 20, 2009, Massey announced that he would be a Republican candidate for the US House of Representatives South Carolina's 3rd congressional district,[1] but quickly pulled out, citing a desire to keep his family in South Carolina.

Massey was named a 2014 Aspen Institute Rodel Fellow.[2]

During the 2020 election, which took place during the COVID-19 pandemic, Massey voted to prevent ballot drop boxes from being used during the election in South Carolina.[3]
