    SCHILIRO PHIL INSTITUTIONAL ET SECTORAL MIGRANTS. http://www.gwu.edu/~action/2008/chrntran08/whstaffbios.html Phil Schiliro -- Assistant to the President for Legislative Affairs (11/15) Philip M. Schiliro is currently the Director of Congressional Relations for the transition team of President-Elect Barack Obama. Schiliro was a senior advisor to Senator Obama's presidential campaign. He has worked in the United States Congress for more than 25 years. Schiliro served as the Chief of Staff to Representative Henry Waxman and the House Oversight Committee in the House, and the Policy Director for Senate Democratic Leader Tom Daschle and Staff Director of the Senate Democratic Leadership Committees in the Senate. White House Advisor Phil Schiliro ’78 Keynoter at Mid-Year Commencement http://news.hofstra.edu/2013/12/12/hofstra-university-2013-midyear-commencement-activities-and-honoree-sun- dec-22-1130-a-m/5 White House advisor Phil Schiliro ’78 urged graduates who earned their diplomas on Sunday to take a moment to thank the people who have helped them along the way because “if you are successful, and all of you are — you’re here today — somebody along the line gave you some help.” “There may be a couple of you who have done it completely on your own. I can’t say that. I didn’t,” Schiliro told the 550 undergraduate, graduate and law students who participated in Hofstra’s mid-year commencement ceremony at the David S. Mack Sports and Exhibition Complex. He drove home his point by recognizing several Hofstra professors who influenced and inspired him, including Dean Bernard Firestone, Professor Michael D’Innocenzo and Professor Emeritus Herb Rosenbaum.
