He is a member of the Republican Party.Shays was the only Republican congressman from New England elected to the 110th United States Congress in the 2006 midterm elections.

He co-chaired the government watchdog commission that identified and raised alarm over $60 billion of waste, fraud, and abuse in wartime contingency contracting and presented to Congress reforms to address this wasteful spending.Shays was a candidate for the 2012 Republican U.S. Senate nomination to replace retiring Connecticut senator Joe Lieberman.However, he lost the August 14 primary to Linda McMahon.".
