Political career
editShe was active in JEF Norway and the Young Christian Democrats, leading the latter's Akershus branch from 2011 to 2012. In 2012, she became a central board member of the Young Christian Democrats, advancing to deputy leader in 2013 and leader from 2015 to 2017.[1]
From 1 June to 21 August 2020, Røse served as Norway's Minister of Children and Families, filling in for Kjell Ingolf Ropstad who was on parental leave. Having not yet turned 28 years of age, Røse became the youngest ever government minister of Norway. [2]
Røse was elected to Viken county council in 2019, leading the Christian Democratic Party caucus.[1] Following the 2023 Norwegian local elections, the Christian Democratic Party managed to form a county cabinet together with its coalition partners, the Conservatives, Progress and the Liberals, led by Anette Solli. The county cabinet would preside over Akershus County Municipality, following the dissolution of Viken on 1 January 2024. Røse was appointed county commissioner of enterprise, public health, sports and diversity.[3]
She was elected as the Christian Democrats's second deputy leader at the party's 2023 party convention.[4]
In the aftermath of Olaug Bollestad's resignation in August 2024, the party's election committee officially designated her as first deputy leader in December, with Dag Inge Ulstein as leader and Jorunn Gleditsch Lossius as second deputy leader.[5]
