Microsoft Makes More DC Office Changes
As part of the changes in Microsoft's Washington office, Matt Gelman has been promoted to senior director for congressional affairs. Gelman will manage Microsoft's federal policy advocacy efforts before Congress and lead the company's team of lobbyists on Capitol Hill. He previously served as Microsoft's House Democratic lobbyist and took an unpaid leave from Microsoft in early 2007 to serve as a senior adviser to House Majority Whip James Clyburn. In the 1990s, Gelman spent ten years on the House Democratic leadership staff, including eight years as floor assistant to former Rep. David Bonior, D-Mich., when he served as Democratic whip.
CongressDaily reported last week that Fred Humphries was named director of federal government affairs, replacing Jack Krumholtz who launched Microsoft's federal government affairs activities in Washington in March 1995. Meanwhile at Microsoft, Ed Ingle will serve as managing director of federal government affairs, overseeing congressional and executive branch engagement and the tech giant's political action committee. -- Winter Casey
