Nominations for Vacancies
Section 512 of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
(ERISA), 88 Stat. 895, 29 U.S.C. 1142,
provides for the establishment of an
Advisory Council on Employee Welfare
and Pension Benefit Plans (the Council),
consisting of 15 members appointed by
the Secretary of Labor (the Secretary) as
follows:
Three representatives of employee
organizations (at least one of whom
shall be a representative of an
organization whose members are
participants in a multiemployer plan);
three representatives of employers
(at least one of whom shall be a
representative of employers maintaining
or contributing to multiemployer plans);
three representatives from the
general public (one of whom shall be a
person representing those receiving
benefits from a pension plan); and
one representative each from the
fields of insurance, corporate trust,
actuarial counseling, investment
counseling, investment management,
and accounting.
No more than eight members of the
Council shall be members of the same
political party.
Council members must be qualified to
appraise the programs instituted under
ERISA. Appointments are for three-year
terms. The Council’s prescribed duties
are to advise the Secretary with respect
to carrying out his functions under
ERISA, and to submit to the Secretary,
or his designee, related
recommendations. The Council will
meet at least four times each year.
The terms of five Council members
expire at the end of this year. The
groups or fields they represent are as
follows:
(1) Employee organizations;
(2) employers;
(3) the general public;
(4) corporate trust; and
(5) investment management.
The Department of Labor is
committed to equal opportunity in the
workplace and seeks a broad-based and
diverse Council.
If you or your organization wants to
nominate one or more people for
appointment to the Council to represent
one of the groups or fields specified
above, submit nominations to Christine
Donahue, Council Executive Secretary,
as email attachments to
donahue.christine@dol.gov or by mail to
U.S. Department of Labor, 200
Constitution Ave. NW, Suite N–5700,
Washington, DC 20210. Nominations
must be received on or before November
6, 2020. The Department will not
consider nominations received after
November 6, 2020. If sending
electronically, please use an attachment
in rich text, Word, or pdf format. Please
allow three weeks for regular mail
delivery to the Department of Labor.
Nominations may be in the form of a
letter, resolution, or petition signed by
the person making the nomination or, in
the case of a nomination by an
organization, by an authorized
representative of the organization. The
Department of Labor encourages you to
include additional supporting letters of
nomination. The Department of Labor
will not consider self-nominees who
have no supporting letters.
Nominations, including supporting
letters, should:
State the person’s qualifications to
serve on the Council (including any
particular specialized knowledge or
experience relevant to the nominee’s
proposed Council position);
state that the candidate will accept
appointment to the Council if offered;
include which of the five positions
(representing groups or fields) you are
nominating the candidate to fill;
include the nominee’s full name,
work affiliation, mailing address, phone
number, and email address;
include the nominator’s full name,
work affiliation, mailing address, phone
number, and email address;
include the nominator’s signature,
whether sent by email or otherwise.
Please do not include any information
that you do not want publicly disclosed.
The Department of Labor will contact
nominees for information on their
political affiliation and their status as
registered lobbyists. Anyone currently
subject to federal registration
requirements as a lobbyist is not eligible
for appointment. Nominees should be
aware of the time commitment for
attending meetings and actively
participating in the work of the Council.
Historically, this has meant a
commitment of at least 20 days per year.
The Department of Labor has a process
for vetting nominees under
consideration for appointment.
Signed at Washington, DC, this 16th day of
September, 2020.
Jeanne Klinefelter Wilson,
Acting Assistant Secretary, Employee Benefits
Security Administration.
