: Legal Pad | LAFormer California Education Secretary nominated to Customs post by Obama administration
By Richard Binder
The White House announced yesterday the nomination of Alan Bersin to be the new commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection, the nation's largest law enforcement agency.
Bersin, a veteran of federal border enforcement and a former San Diego schools superintendent, has served since April as assistant secretary for international affairs at the Homeland Security Department. If approved as commissioner by the Senate, officials say he will continue to advise Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano on issues related to Mexico and the border, although he will relinquish the title of special representative.
Before going into government, Bersin was a senior partner in the Los Angeles law firm of Munger, Tolles & Olson and a law professor.
