Colleen Kelley is the president of the National Treasury Employees Union (NTEU) which represents 150,000 federal employees across 31 agencies, including the IRS. This union leadership role has its privileges. As Andrew Stiles at National Review Online writes, “Since Obama took office, she has been to the White House at least eleven times to meet with high-ranking officials such as Jeffrey Zients, acting director of the Office of Management and Budget, according to visitor logs. She has also met directly with the president and the first lady.” Stiles continues, “The Hill in a May 2012 profile observed that Kelley ‘has had a hand in every major deficit negotiation’ since Republicans retook the House in 2010; she ‘has tangled with the Tea Party and gone up against GOP standard-bearers Reps. Darrell Issa (Calif.) and Paul Ryan (Wis.).’”
