State Representative Mark Rozzi was elected to represent the 126th Legislative District in 2012. Prior to seeking elected office Rozzi owned and operated Rozzi Brothers Incorporated, a well-respected window and door company. Rozzi graduated in 1989 from Muhlenberg High School. He went on to receive a bachelor’s degree in Political Science from Kutztown University with a concentration in pre-law and constitutional law. Rozzi, his wife Jacklyn, daughter McKenna and dogs Cali and Aspen currently reside in Muhlenberg Township where he remains active in the community.
Rozzi serves as Democratic Secretary of the House Children and Youth Committee which was responsible for the bulk of the legislation stemming from the Child Protection Task Force and Jerry Sandusky trial. Mark’s interest in children’s rights and protections arose from his personal sexual abuse as a child and is what initially inspired him to seek elected office. This session, Rozzi has also been appointed to the Commerce, Gaming Oversight and Judiciary Committees.
With just one legislation session under his belt, Rep. Mark Rozzi has been hailed for his activism and expertise in reforming arbitrary and archaic statutes of limitation laws. He is an oft requested speaker for advocacy groups and conferences and has hosted forums on related issues. Rozzi is the recipient of the Protect PA Kids 2014 Pennsylvania Kid Protector Award.
