Not per se. The boss of the Milwaukee Family never "sat" on The Commission in NYC. Milwaukee was always represented by the Chicago Family.

But by virtue of the fact that ALL family bosses are automatically members of the Commission by proxy, in that sense, yes (of course), Milwaukee's boss just like all bosses across the country are "members" of The Commission although not all sat regularly at meetings.
