Pulaski County residents contacting the Washington, D.C. office of U.S. Senator John Boozman (R-AR) may encounter a new staff member with local ties. Rosh Ranaraja, a native of Little Rock and graduate of Catholic High School for Boys, has joined Boozman’s team as a staff assistant.
“I am honored to join Senator Boozman’s staff, where I can serve the community that raised me while contributing to the work that benefits Arkansans and Americans across the country,” Ranaraja said.
Senator Boozman expressed his support for the new hire. “Rosh brings a strong record of public service and a deep commitment to Arkansas. His experience and enthusiasm will be a great asset to our team as we continue delivering responsive, effective constituent services,” Boozman said.
In his position, Ranaraja is responsible for responding to inquiries from Arkansans regarding pending legislation and Senate floor activity. He also helps organize tours of sites in Washington, D.C., and processes requests for U.S. flags flown over the Capitol.
Before joining Boozman’s office, Ranaraja completed internships with Congressman French Hill (AR-02), the U.S. Department of State, the U.S. Department of Energy, and the Arkansas Hunger Relief Alliance.
Ranaraja graduated from Swarthmore College in 2025 with degrees in political science and economics. He is the son of Rohan and Shara Ranaraja.
