Meet Ben Fuhriman

Ben Fuhriman is a lifelong Idahoan who believes in hard work, family, and service. Born and raised in Ammon, Ben learned early what it means to roll up his sleeves and get things done. As a kid, his dad wouldn’t let him go play until he’d filled a bucket with rocks from the garden—so Ben convinced his friends to help. Even then, he understood that teamwork and leadership go hand in hand.

That work ethic carried him through life. An Eagle Scout, Hillcrest High School valedictorian, and a “Do it. Do it right. Do it right now.” kind of guy, Ben has always been driven to solve problems and help others succeed. He worked his way through school, served a two-year mission in Brazil, earned his bachelor's degree from BYU-Idaho, and a master's degree in family financial planning from Montana State University. He and his wife, Holli, met on the campaign trail while they were students at BYU-Idaho. Today, they live in Shelley with their four kids—all proud Idaho students.

Professionally, Ben is a Certified Financial Planner™, Accredited Financial Counselor™, and Behavioral Financial Advisor™. He owns his own firm and every day helps local families and business owners make smart financial decisions and build stronger futures.

As your current State Representative, Ben has brought that same pragmatic approach to the Idaho Legislature—fighting for fiscal responsibility, stronger families, and the Idaho values that make our communities thrive. Whether it’s protecting taxpayers, supporting education, or defending personal freedom, Ben has worked to make sure Idaho stays the best place to live, work, and raise a family.

Ben Fuhriman is running for re‑election because there’s more work to do—and he’s ready to keep delivering results that serve Idaho families first.
