About Ellen Schutt

Born 1995. Ellen Schutt is an American politician.

Ellen Schutt (born October 16, 1995) is an American Republican politician from Walworth County, Wisconsin. She served one term as a member of the Wisconsin State Assembly, representing Wisconsin's 31st Assembly district during the 2023–2024 term.

Biography Ellen Schutt grew up in the town of Darien, Wisconsin, and was raised there on her family's farm. She graduated from Delavan Darien High School and earned her bachelor's degree in political science from the University of Wisconsin–Madison. While attending the University of Wisconsin, she became active in conservative politics on campus and re-founded the Madison chapter of Young Americans for Freedom, and founded a chapter of the Luce Society—for conservative women. She interned with Wisconsin state representative Amy Loudenbeck and in the district office of congressman Paul Ryan, handling constituent services and questions. Ultimately two other candidates entered the Republican primary field, but Schutt prevailed with 42% of the vote. She went on to defeat the Democratic candidate, Whitewater city councilmember Brienne Brown.

Schutt assumed office in January 2023. In the Assembly, she served as vice chair of the Assembly committee on criminal justice and public safety, and served on the Assembly committees on agriculture, on colleges and universities, on health, aging, and long-term care, on transportation, and the joint committee on information policy and technology.

The 2024 legislative redistricting act significantly affected Schutt's district, shifting the district mostly into Walworth County, and drawing Schutt into the same district as Republican Assembly majority leader Tyler August. Rather than running in a primary against August, on May 31, 2024, Schutt announced she would not seek re-election.

After leaving office in 2025, Schutt worked for the Wisconsin FFA Foundation.

Schutt returned to politics two years later. Following the announcement that state senator Stephen Nass would not run for re-election in the 11th state Senate district, Schutt announced her intention to succeed him.
