The Levin Center at Wayne Law will present “Congressional Investigations: Shaping our Understanding of the American Story” as a Zoom webinar on Thursday, January 13, from noon to 1:15 p.m.
In January 2022, the Levin Center will release 15 Portraits in Oversight, profiles that describe important congressional investigations and trace the work of key figures in the history of legislative oversight. The Portraits explore congressional oversight from 1792 to the present day, including inquiries into the Civil War, covert CIA operations, Enron, and Watergate and such figures as Representatives John Dingell and Elijah Cummings and Senators Harry Truman and Joe McCarthy. The panel of historians will explore the role of congressional oversight in our history and how these investigations influenced our understanding of the American story.
