Brandon Shippy’s roots run deep in the Western Treasure Valley. His great grandfather settled in Weiser following WWII and his grandfather raised his family in New Plymouth. His father raised his family in Fruitland and New Plymouth where Brandon grew to love his state and his county. When it came time for Brandon and his wife Rakel to start their family together, it was a natural decision for them to stay true to Payette County. 

Brandon was blessed with a heritage of strong work ethics and an entrepreneurial spirit from his family and friends, so it was also a natural decision for him to launch his own small business in New Plymouth- Shippy Sprinkler LLC.

Brandon’s conservative values are also well-rooted and well-expressed. He serves as a volunteer for the Idaho Republican Party as a precinct committeeman, representing his neighbors, and as the Payette County Republican Central Committee Youth Committeeperson in which Brandon represents Republican youth at State-level Republican events.

Having a heart for his community is expressed in Brandon’s volunteer work, both as a deacon in his church and through his work sharing the gospel with Narrow Path Prison Ministries. He and Rakel have also opened their home as foster care providers.

Brandon’s family is truly interwoven into the fabric of the community, past, present, and future. 

Now a father of three, Brandon feels a calling to help maintain Idaho’s culture for his children and neighbors to enjoy. Brandon knows that his community wants a principled conservative representing them in the legislature. Brandon is that conservative, and Brandon’s passion for his community will strengthen and sustain him as a true candidate for Idaho State Senate.
