About Me:
In the Senate, his top priority has been the economic well-being of Michigan families. He has been a consistent voice for support of American manufacturing, the backbone of Michigan's economy and the nation's.
Another signature issue is protecting Michigan's precious and diverse natural environment. As co-chair of the Senate Great Lakes Task Force, he has fought to protect Michigan's signature natural resource.
Carl Levin is the Chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee where he has earned a reputation as a strong supporter of our national defense, a tireless advocate on behalf of our service men and women, and an effective fighter against wasteful government spending.
As chairman of the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations - the premier investigating subcommittee in the Senate - Levin led a two-year bipartisan inquiry into key causes of the financial crisis of 2008 culminating in a 635-page report in 2011 that catalogs the conflicts of interest, heedless risk-taking and failures of federal oversight that helped push the country into the deepest recession since the Great Depression.
