Born in Tucson, Arizona, Biggs has a background in law with degrees from Brigham Young University and the University of Arizona.

On December 11, 2024, Rep. Andy Biggs announced the return of his podcast with a live episode scheduled for that afternoon. He mentioned that Jon Schweppe from American Principles Project would join him to discuss "Biden-Harris's weaponization of the Department of Education against Christian universities." The episode was set to air at 3:30 pm EST/1:30 pm MST. "The What's the Biggs Idea? podcast is back with another live episode this afternoon!"

Later that day, Rep. Biggs expressed urgency for House and Senate Republicans to begin preparing their strategy for President Trump's administration well before his inauguration on January 20th. He stressed that planning should have commenced as early as November 6th to avoid falling behind schedule once Trump takes office. "If House and Senate Republicans wait until January 20 to create their playbook for President Trump’s Administration, we’ll already be behind schedule."

In another post on December 11, Rep. Biggs commented on the resignation of FBI Director Chris Wray, describing it as occurring "in disgrace." He advocated for Kash Patel as Wray's successor and urged the Senate GOP to confirm Patel in the following month."FBI Director Chris Wray just RESIGNED in disgrace."
