I can’t express enough how deeply grateful I am to have represented Michigan’s 9th district in Congress the last four years. Though my term has concluded, please keep in touch with me on here or @Andy_Levin. Onward!

GOP may be so reflexively anti-union that they want to strip their employees of the chance to form one—but it's not that easy. Under the Congressional Accountability Act, rights that have been implemented can't simply be taken away absent new legislation to change the Act itself.

Wow, what a year it’s been?! I’m in awe of our country’s resilience and our collective ability to tackle challenges head on. All year, community leaders and advocates inspired me to make our world more just and equitable. Happy New Year!

On Dec. 28, 2018, U.S. citizen Paul Whelan was arrested & wrongfully accused of espionage by the Russian Federation. He’s been held in a prison camp ever since. We must do everything in our power to secure his release. It’s time for Paul to come home to Michigan. #FreePaulWhelan

I just voted for the government funding bill to reverse decades of disinvestment and support the middle and working class. We're bringing home $19M in Community Funding Projects and much more. Happy holidays one and all!

The workers in my office have delivered an incredible gift to their peers this holiday season by showing you can achieve the power of a written contract guaranteeing workers’ rights in the halls of Congress.

It’s a fitting end to one of the most exciting years of worker organizing in many decades.

The final government funding package will include *all* of our requested Community Funding Projects, bringing over $19M to Macomb and Oakland Counties!

BREAKING: This Senate passed the funding bill with an aggressive investment in American families, workers, and our national defense.
The range of people it helps is large and deep.
America will be healthier, more prosperous, and more secure.

Believe it or not, in 2022 you can only get a Pell Grant if you’re a full-time, two or four-year college student—as if it were still the 1980s. ⬇️

I’m of two minds re: the first @NLRB funding increase in nearly a decade.
1. Great tactical victory for a determined workers’ movement that would not take no as an answer. Even with Republican opposition and the filibuster, we can get things done!

2. This is not nearly enough. In a historic year of worker organizing, union elections and employer repression in response, we need full funding for the @NLRB, nothing less. We fight on!
