John Harbin Rousselot (November 1, 1927 – May 11, 2003) was a colorful conservative congressman from California, first elected in 1960 when he defeated Democrat incumbent George Kasem. He was an outspoken defender of the John Birch Society, and after his first of two tenures in Congress he served as one of the JBS leaders.

Rousselot served as "in the Reagan White House as special assistant for business matters, then served as Western states coordinator for Reagan’s 1984 reelection campaign."[1]
