Early life, Education and
When long-time legislator Tom Trail decided to seek a seat on the Latah County Commission after redistricting, Agidius became a candidate for the legislature, running unopposed in the Republican Primary. In the general election she defeated Democrat Paulette Jordan with the narrowest margin of any legislative race in 2012. Agidius ran unopposed in the 2014 Republican Primary, but was defeated in her rematch with Jordan in the general election.
Committee assignments
Agidius served on the Agricultural Affairs Committee from 2012–2014, Business Committee from 2012–2014, Education Committee from 2012–2013, and Revenue and Taxation Committee for 2014.
Agidius was hired as communications director by the House Republican Caucus for the 2015 Legislative Session. House Minority Leader John Rusche of Lewiston asked for her removal from the position, alleging that Agidius was "harassing" and "spying" on Jordan, in addition to using her position as communications director improperly, addressing his concerns to Idaho House Speaker Scott Bedke.
In response, Agidius said "In my opinion, a problem never existed,” she said. “I have enough to do here without worrying about what Paulette"s doing.
There have been a few instances when I"ve seen her do things she said she wouldn"t do.
Those are things I may store and remember, if I choose to run again.".
