Sen. Jacky Rosen

Before being elected to the Senate, Rosen represented Nevada’s Third District in the 115th Congress. Rosen served on the House Armed Services Committee and the House Science, Space and Technology Committee, where she passed bipartisan legislation through the House to improve early childhood STEM education. Overall, Rosen introduced nearly two dozen pieces of legislation, including bills to help create jobs at small business tech startups, cap out-of-pocket prescription drug costs, combat workplace sexual harassment, and protect jobs in the solar industry from harmful tariffs.
Rosen worked as a computer programmer and software developer for some of the biggest companies in Nevada, including Summa Corporation, Citibank, and Southwest Gas. As former president of Congregation Ner Tamid in Henderson, Rosen dedicated countless hours to supporting her community and helping those in need. Rosen led a team that constructed one of the largest solar projects by a non-profit in southern Nevada through a public-private partnership. The solar array helped cut the synagogue’s energy bills by up to 70 percent.
Rosen received her undergraduate bachelor’s degree from the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis in 1979. Rosen also received an associate’s degree in computing and information technology in 1985 from Clark County Community College — what is now the College of Southern Nevada.
