Democratic aide moves to semiconductor trade group

Posted by Keturah Hetrick on Feb. 7, 2023

A Democratic subcommittee staffer is ready for his next pass through the revolving door.

Ben Kallen is now senior manager for public policy and advocacy at SEMI. The trade association, which focuses on semiconductors and other electronics, employs a small in-house lobbying team that works mainly on tax issues.

Kallen was most recently a professional staff member to the House Science Committee's Energy Subcommittee, which Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-N.Y.) chaired last session. Kallen previously worked as a lobbyist at Lewis-Burke Associates.
