Timeline

Jeffrey Roorda is an American politician.

1965

Jeff Roorda was born in St. Louis, Missouri on March 30, 1965, the oldest of two sons.

He lived in St. Louis with his parents and younger brother until he was twelve years old when Roorda's family moved to Arnold, a St. Louis suburb in Jefferson County, Missouri.

Roorda graduated from Windsor High School in Jefferson County.

Roorda received an associate degree in Criminal Justice from Jefferson College in Hillsboro, Missouri and later went on to earn his bachelor's degree from Missouri Baptist University and his Masters in Public Policy Administration from University of Missouri - St. Louis.

1994

Roorda married his wife Nancy in 1994.

They have three daughters.

Roorda has worked in law enforcement for seventeen years.

2001

He was a police officer in Arnold, Missouri until 2001, when he was fired for making allegedly false statements and filing false reports.

Later, he became chief of police in Kimmswick, another city in Jefferson County.

He is the executive director and a business manager of the St. Louis Police Officers Association.

2004

Roorda was elected to the Missouri House of Representatives in 2004 as a Democrat in district 102, representing the Imperial, Missouri area.

He won a three-way primary by 83 votes and then defeated Republican Marvin Lutes with 50.86% of the vote in the general election.

2005

He was a Democratic member of the Missouri House of Representatives, serving from 2005 to 2010 and again from 2013 to 2015.

2006

In 2006, Roorda won a rematch with Lutes, garnering 60% of the vote.

2008

He won a third term unopposed in 2008.

2010

In 2010, Roorda was defeated by Republican Paul Wieland, who won 50.3% of the vote in a three-way race.

After Missouri redistricted its Legislature following the 2010 Census, Roorda ran for the state House of Representatives again, this time in district 113.

He was unopposed in the Democratic primary, then defeated Dan Smith, Republican, in the general election with 54% of the vote.

In March 2010, Roorda got in a heated exchange on the House floor with Republican Rep. Tim Jones.

While Roorda was speaking critically about the GOP budget proposal, Jones accused him of skipping out on floor votes and called him a liar.

The two started shouting and moving toward one another as colleagues kept them apart until the situation calmed down.

Both later apologized for their behavior

2013

In 2013 and 2014, Roorda introduced the Thanksgiving Family Protection Act, which would have blocked most retail stores from opening on Thanksgiving Day, saying that "[t]he commercialization of Christmas has now crept into Thanksgiving Day, when folks would like to be home celebrating with their families."

This bill did not advance either time.

2014

Roorda ran for the Missouri Senate in District 22 in 2014, but he was defeated by Paul Wieland, a Republican from Imperial.

A former police officer, he is also the executive director and business manager of the St. Louis Police Officers Association (SLPOA).

SLPOA is Lodge #68 of the Fraternal Order of Police, covering the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department (SLMPD).

Roorda faced off again with Wieland in 2014 in a race for the open 22nd district state Senate seat, representing most of Jefferson County, that was vacated by Democrat Ryan McKenna.

As Jefferson County continued to trend towards the GOP, Wieland again defeated Roorda, this time by a 54%-46% margin.

In 2014, Roorda sponsored a bill that, if passed, would have allowed the government to close "any records and documents pertaining to police shootings [...] if they contain the name of any officer who did the shooting, unless the officer who did the shooting has been charged with a crime as a result of the shooting, in which case such records or documents shall not be closed."

The bill did not advance.

In 2022, Roorda has filed to run again for state senate district 22, but this time he has filed to run as a Republican.

Roorda said the St. Louis Police Officers Association has had concerns about dashboard cameras in use on many city patrol cars and would have the same worries about on-body devices.

Roorda said both types of cameras provide video of "one angle of an encounter" that sometimes doesn't reflect exactly what happened.

"In general, cameras have been bad for law enforcement and the communities they protect," he said.

2016

In 2016, Roorda set his sights on the race for Jefferson County Council district 4, representing the Barnhart area.

Incumbent councilman George Engelbach was defeated in the Republican primary by Charles Groeteke, who then defeated Roorda in the general election with 56% of the vote.

2017

Roorda announced on October 1, 2017 that he would run as a Democrat for Jefferson County Executive in 2018.

He was defeated in November by Republican Dennis Gannon by a 58%-42% margin.
