Senator Rollie Heath
Stratton Rollins (Rollie) Health Jr. serves the Boulder area. He earned a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration in 1959, then entered law school and finished in two years to earn a Juris Doctor degree in 1961. Rollie joined the military in 1961, and entered active duty as a First Lieutenant in the Judge Advocate General's Corps. He served in the Army for 23 years, with nine years of active duty and 14 years of reserve service. Senator Heath has extensive background in business development and economic growth. While Rollie spent a great deal of his time in the 1990s on family, business and education, he stayed connected to the political world as he and Josie hosted events at their home. He realized that the state was not serving the majority of young people well in terms of K-12 education, that the state was underfunding higher education, and that it was becoming increasingly difficult for businesses to provide health care for their employees - so he decided to take action. He announced his candidacy for Governor in 2001. He is the Chair of the State Affairs committee. He is a member of the interim Joint Select Committee on Job Creation and Economic Growth, a committee that was formed to help Colorado weather the rough economic climate. Gov. Bill Ritter appointed Rollie to a seat on the Colorado Municipal Bond Advisory Board in early 2009.
