Biography

After professionally working as a nurse, she became a member of the Sejm (the lower House of Parliament) after Wiesław Walendziak had stepped down in March 2004. On 25 September 2005, she candidated in the 26th Gdynia district, running on the Law and Justicelist, and was elected Sejm member, as well as on 21 October 2007, on 9 October 2011 and on 25 October 2015.

In 2007, following rumours that she was in relationship with Poland's prime minister Jarosław Kaczyński, the airline Ryanair launched an advertising campaign which pictured the two politicians under the headline Are they planning a honeymoon trip? Szczypińska took legal action to prevent publication.
