Congratulations are in order for Michael Kerr, who was sworn in today as Assistant Secretary for Administration and Management at the Department of Labor.

This will be Kerr's second tour at Labor, as he previously spent eight years in the Clinton administration, eventually running the department's Wage and Hour Division. Before his DOL nomination and confirmation, Kerr oversaw Finance and Administration at SEIU as an Assistant to the Secretary-Treasurer. He also spent several years at AFSCME earlier in his career.
