She attended UC Santa Cruz as a pre-law student and completed her JD at UC Hastings. She moved to Colorado after graduating, and spent 5 years working as a legal advisor for protest organizers and non-profit organizations.

Rose was elected to the JF-4 Representative on September 12th, 2020; unseating the formerly “Unbeatable” Caprese. This was her first attempt at seeking election and it ended in an incredibly tight race. The election was the first recount since the 2018 reforms to end with a seat being flipped. Shortly into her first month as a Representative she introduced the ‘Consistent Policing Act’ which was signed by former President Garland.

Nearly 1 month after being elected to JF-4 Representative, the sudden disappearance of Matthew Hale from political life left an opportunity for a new Speaker. The Left Coalition (at the time known as the ‘Left Progress Caucus’) held a primary for the Speakership which led to the infamous ‘spoiled vote’ incident, and the subsequent confusion on the House floor during the nomination period. After an outpouring of bipartisan support, Rose accepted the nomination for Speaker and went on to be unanimously elected on October 13th, 2020. Rose completed the remainder of the September/October House session, where she presided over the veto override of the Living Wage act which established a $15 minimum wage.

Rose is currently the longest sitting Speaker of the House since 2018, having thrice ascended to the Speakership by unanimous vote. As Speaker she is most well known for having established a quasi-’Denison’s Rule’ for the Speakership, and her non-partisan procedures while holding the gavel. During her time in the House, Rose introduced the ‘New Extraction Limitations’ Act, the ‘Renewable Energy and New Technologies’ Act, the ‘Consistent Policing’ Act, and the ‘December Federal Budget for Coronavirus Recovery and Fiscal Transparency’ Act. The ‘Federal Budget for Coronavirus Recovery and Fiscal Transparency’ Act was the first budget in nearly 3 years to include individual departmental spending costs, and helped to renew the public trust in Executive spending.

Rose McAlister is an American politician who currently serves as Jefferson's First Secretary. She served as Speaker of the House during her time as a Representative for Jefferson's Fourth District and was elected as Jefferson's First Secretary on February 9th 2021.

Early Life, Education, Career

Rose McAlister was born in Castle Rock, Oregon on April 25th, 1988. She grew up in Eugene where she spent the early part of her youth participating in theater, debate, and parliamentary procedure clubs. She attended UC Santa Cruz as a pre-law student and completed her JD at UC Hastings. She moved to Colorado after graduating, and spent 5 years working as a legal advisor for protest organizers and non-profit organizations. Following the wave of protests after the death of George Floyd, Rose began leading protests of her own, quickly gaining a close knit group of supporters urging her to run for office.

Rose was elected to the JF-4 Representative on September 12th, 2020; unseating the formerly “Unbeatable” Caprese. This was her first attempt at seeking election and it ended in an incredibly tight race. The election was the first recount since the 2018 reforms to end with a seat being flipped. Shortly into her first month as a Representative she introduced the ‘Consistent Policing Act’ which was signed by former President Garland.

Political Career

Nearly 1 month after being elected to JF-4 Representative, the sudden disappearance of Matthew Hale from political life left an opportunity for a new Speaker. The Left Coalition (at the time known as the ‘Left Progress Caucus’) held a primary for the Speakership which led to the infamous ‘spoiled vote’ incident, and the subsequent confusion on the House floor during the nomination period. After an outpouring of bipartisan support, Rose accepted the nomination for Speaker and went on to be unanimously elected on October 13th, 2020. Rose completed the remainder of the September/October House session, where she presided over the veto override of the Living Wage act which established a $15 minimum wage.

Rose is currently the longest sitting Speaker of the House since 2018, having thrice ascended to the Speakership by unanimous vote. As Speaker she was most well known for having established a quasi-’Denison’s Rule’ for the Speakership, and her non-partisan procedures while holding the gavel. During her time in the House, Rose introduced the ‘New Extraction Limitations’ Act, the ‘Renewable Energy and New Technologies’ Act, the ‘Consistent Policing’ Act, and the ‘December Federal Budget for Coronavirus Recovery and Fiscal Transparency’ Act. The ‘Federal Budget for Coronavirus Recovery and Fiscal Transparency’ Act was the first budget in nearly 3 years to include individual departmental spending costs, and helped to renew the public trust in Executive spending.


Executive Cabinet

Rose was confirmed to the position of Secretary of the Department of Conservation and Climate Change shortly after Omarosa Sandoval was elected as President. As the first Secretary to the department after the EPA was abolished, Rose mainly spent her time re-establishing forgotten State grant programs, such as the multi-purpose state and tribes grant and the small business innovation research grant, and completing the first carbon emissions report since 2017. Her final act as Secretary before resigning the position was to establish the new carbon regulations for the ‘reverse carbon tax’ initiative.


Current Career

On February 9th, 2021 Rose was elected to the office of the First Secretary in Jefferson alongside Governor Sysadmin. On February 17th Rose announced that she would not be seeking the Speakership during the March Presidential election, and instead would be running on the Joint-Left ticket with Senate Majority Leader Epsilon Leclair, as the Left Coalition’s Vice Presidential Candidate. Ultimately, after the loss of the Presidential race, Rose has been working to amend Jefferson's tax code and largely staying out of the public eye.


Global Labour Party

Following the September Federal Election Rose became a founding member for the Global Labour Party, and would go on to be elected to the GLP Council alongside Epsilon Leclair and Dallas Evelyn, Dallas became the first Global Labour Council Chairwoman, though shortly after the November elections Dallas stepped down and Rose ascended to Chair. Rose remained GLP Council Chair until the December state Elections when she instead nominated Sysadmin to the role. Rose was reelected as Chair following the February State Election.

Personal Life

Rose is unmarried and currently living in Aurora, Jefferson with her Corgi "Malt", and her pet rat "Sugar".
