Lewiston, Idaho — Rep. Kyle Harris announced today that he will seek reelection to continue serving the people of Idaho’s District 7 in the House of Representatives. Harris, known for his steadfast commitment to fiscal responsibility, rural economic growth, and government transparency, emphasized his dedication to building on the progress made during his current term.
“As your representative, I’ve worked every day to protect taxpayer dollars, strengthen our rural communities, and ensure state government remains accountable to the people it serves,” Harris said. “I’m running for re‑election because District 7 deserves strong, consistent, conservative leadership that reflects our shared Idaho values.”
During his service, Rep. Harris has championed responsible budgeting, limited government, lower taxes, accountability, and policies that support agriculture, timber, and small businesses. His recent appointment to the Joint Finance–Appropriations Committee (JFAC) has further strengthened his ability to safeguard public funds and advocate for budget practices rooted in transparency and efficiency.
“With my work on JFAC, I’ve been able to scrutinize spending line‑by‑line and fight to eliminate wasteful government practices,” Harris noted. “I will continue demanding accountability from every state agency and ensure that Idaho taxpayers get maximum value for every dollar spent.”
Harris reaffirmed that his priorities for the upcoming term include supporting law enforcement, protecting constitutional rights, expanding opportunities for families and businesses, and ensuring rural communities have a strong voice in Boise. “I’m proud of what we’ve achieved, but there’s more work ahead,” he added. “I’m asking for the continued support of District 7 voters so we can keep Idaho strong, free, and financially responsible.”
