| Description | President Obama today nominated former Rep. Ann Marie Buerkle to be a commissioner for the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, the White House announced this evening.
Buerkle is a Republican who unseated Democrat Dan Maffei in 2010, only to be unseated by Maffei in a comeback bid in the following election.
Buerkle is an interesting choice for a Democratic administration, given that she was considered one of the more conservative members of the state’s House delegation. |
