Campaign Statement
I am Brandon Mitchell, and I am asking for the privilege of continuing to serve as your State Representative for Idaho’s Legislative District 6. Raised on a small farm in Syracuse, Utah, I learned the values of faith, family, and hard work that still guide me today. My wife and I—high-school sweethearts—have three children and six grandchildren. In 2012 we moved to Moscow, where we own and operate a small business that employ local families and serve our community. Since 2021 I have fought in Boise for the conservative principles District 6 deserves: protecting your hard-earned tax dollars, keeping government limited and accountable, strengthening core education and protecting voter integrity.

As your State Representative for District 6, I will fight for: Protecting our rights by defending the Second Amendment, parental rights, and election integrity so families, not government, stay in control. Lowering taxes and controlling spending: My work on the Joint Finance-Appropriations Committee opened my eyes to wasteful spending. I would also like to deliver real relief that eases the burden on homeowners and businesses. Strengthening education: Focusing on K-12 classrooms by getting back to the basics like reading, math, history, civics and practical career-technical training, while partnering with the University of Idaho on high-impact programs that support our local economy, agriculture, and workforce needs.
Growing up on a small farm in Syracuse, Utah, I learned the values of faith, family, and hard work that still guide me today. Since 2013, my wife and I have owned and operated a small business with 6 locations in the Palouse region, employing local families and running a small business through real-world challenges. Elected in 2020 and have been re-elected since. I have serve on the Joint Finance-Appropriations Committee (JFAC). There I scrutinize budgets to protect taxpayer dollars while funding core services like K-12 education and public safety. I have sponsored several bills that have become law over my time in the legislature. Working with others and building relationships has helped get real results for District 6.
I believe our education system must return to the basics—reading, writing, math, civic, and history—while equipping students with marketable skills for their future. There is no reason Idaho students cannot graduate high school with practical training in fields like plumbing, automotive, culinary arts, or electricity. These skills give young people a real advantage, whether they pursue further education or enter the workforce directly. I have worked hard to find better solutions K-12 classrooms and supported supplemental funding for career-technical education (CTE) programs. I will continue fighting to expand high-quality vocational and technical training for our youth and their future.
I believe conservative principles are the key to moving Idaho forward. As more people choose our great state, we must manage growth responsibly while protecting taxpayers from an overly burdensome government. When evaluating every bill, I apply three clear tests: Is it constitutional? Does it reflect what my constituents in District 6 want or need? And can my conscience support it? These principles guide my decisions in Boise. They ensure I fight for limited government, fiscal responsibility, strong families, and the freedoms that make Idaho exceptional. With your continued support, I will keep delivering results rooted in faith, family, and hard work.
