Pam Wilson is a retired small business owner, longtime community volunteer, and candidate for the Idaho State Senate in District 20. She is running to invest in public education, responsible growth, health care, and Idaho's public lands, with transparency and accountability for every tax dollar.
Pam Wilson is not a career politician. Raised in Twin Falls on her parents' values of honesty and hard work, she learned early that Idaho's strength is found in its families, the people who work the land, fix the trucks, and look out for their neighbors.
A hair stylist for more than 30 years, she moved to Boise in 1980, opened her own salon in the 8th Street Marketplace in 1991, and ran it successfully until retiring in 2005. Balancing a budget, managing a team, and listening to decades of clients gave her a boots-on-the-ground understanding of the economic realities Idaho families face every day.
Service has always been central to who Pam is, from fourteen years on the National Ski Patrol at Bogus Basin to caring for her aging parents. Now she is running for the Idaho State Senate in District 20 to invest in public education, responsible growth, health care, and public lands, with transparency and accountability for every tax dollar. Having knocked on more than a thousand doors, she is ready to bring her neighbors' voices to the Senate.
