Conveniently located near the area's major freeways and within walking distance to any downtown location, Senator Levin's Detroit office is in a prime location to assist the residents of Southeastern Michigan. Visitors to the Detroit office seeking federal assistance will find an open door where constituents can walk in and talk face to face with someone regarding their concerns. Whether it is to ask questions regarding a federal agency, discuss issues related to the region's growth, or express an opinion regarding legislation pending in Congress, individuals, organizations, and local communities know that Senator Levin's Detroit office is there to assist them.

Southeast Michigan is a major industrial center known throughout the world for its commerce and culture. This region plays an important role in the country's economic lifeline, with its automotive industry and an international border that is the country's busiest border crossing for commercial items. Key issues facing the area include economic development and stability, smart growth, environmental concerns, and transportation infrastructure. Southeast Michigan is also home to one of Michigan's two Big Ten universities.

Senator Levin has worked to preserve and enhance the region's economic competitiveness, keep jobs in Michigan, and improve workplace conditions to keep workers safe. He has worked for the passage of brownfield revitalization legislation and has supported efforts to enhance and build upon existing transit systems. Senator Levin helped to create the first ever International Wildlife Refuge on the Detroit River and also won funds to support the expansion of the refuge and develop the riverfront in downtown Detroit. His recent sponsorship of the bipartisan Great Lakes Restoration Act is another example of Senator Levin's focus on restoring and safeguarding the Great Lakes system.
