As Florida’s 37th Attorney General, Pam successfully championed a landmark law to halt the spiraling problem of “pill mills”; banned MDPVs, “bath salts”; led on the issue of job licensing safety and fairness; continues to fi ght the federal government’s overreach of authority with the environment; and was a leader on the 26-state constitutional challenge to the government health care takeover.

He founded Rosen Hotels & Resorts in 1974, and serves as the company’s President and Chief Executive Offi cer. Rosen is widely known in Florida and throughout the country due to his philanthropy, and was named the Orlando Sentinel’s Central Floridian of the Year in 2011. In 2002, Rosen donated a 20-acre site and $25 million to the University of Central Florida to develop the Rosen College of Hospitality Management. His efforts however, extend far beyond UCF, including a large involvement in Tangelo Park, a low Harris Rosen income, high crime area of unincorporated Orange County. These efforts include: pre-school opportunities for every Tangelo Park 2-3-4-Year-Old; parenting classes and vocational or technical opportunities for parents with children in school; and full tuition, room, board, and living expenses for every Tangelo Park high school graduate who is accepted by a vocational school, community college, or public university in the state of Florida. He also provides an alternative spring break for Cornell University students, his Alma Mater, who wish to spend their vacation mentoring students from Tangelo Park. He is truly a man who, “puts his money where his mouth is,” when it comes to giving back to the community.
