Role of a State Youth Committeeperson — Republican Party of Idaho

A State Youth Committeeperson in the Idaho Republican Party is an elected representative of the party’s youth (typically younger registered Republican voters) on the Idaho Republican State Central Committee and on county and district Republican central committees.

1. Membership on the State Central Committee

The State Youth Committeeperson serves as a voting member of the Republican State Central Committee, which is the governing body of the Idaho Republican Party at the state level. Members of the State Central Committee establish party policy, adopt rules, and conduct state‐level party business. The committee’s voting members include State Youth Committeepersons along with State Committeemen, State Committeewomen, county chairs, and others defined in the party rules. (Republican Party of Idaho)

• This means the State Youth Committeeperson participates in statewide decisions affecting party governance, state rules, platforms, and strategy.

2. Representation of Youth Interests

Although the Idaho Republican Party’s written rules do not list a detailed job description for the Youth Committeeperson, the position by title and by practice represents the interests and perspectives of younger Republicans within the party’s central decision‐making body (i.e., the State Central Committee and, where applicable, the county central committee). This aligns with how similar positions function in county party bylaws — they serve as a liaison and spokesperson for youth and youth‐related party engagement within the broader party structure. (Republican Party of Idaho)

3. Participation in Local Party Governance

At the county level, the State Youth Committeeperson is typically elected as an officer of a County Republican Central Committee (alongside the State Committeeman and Committeewoman). In this capacity, the Youth Committeeperson:

• Represents the county committee at state meetings and ensures the county’s voice is heard in state party deliberations.
• Participates in local meetings and activities of the county central committee.
• Helps with grassroots organizing and outreach of youth voters and volunteers within the committee’s county or region.

In short, a State Youth Committeeperson in Idaho’s Republican Party:

• Is a voting member of the Idaho Republican State Central Committee.
• Represents younger Republicans in the party’s governance and helps ensure youth perspectives inform party decisions.
• Serves on local (county) central committees, attending meetings and representing that committee at state meetings.
