Levin Center releases ‘Congress Investigates: George Washington to January 6th’

The Levin Center for Oversight and Democracy at Wayne State University Law School has published “Congress Investigates: George Washington to January 6th.”

The book explores 21 major congressional investigations, beginning with the first probe of the Executive Branch under George Washington and covering landmark events including hearings on the Ku Klux Klan, the sinking of the Titanic, the Enron scandal, the 2008 financial crisis, and the January 6th insurrection. The book highlights how congressional oversight has helped shape the nation.

The project was led by Elise Bean, a national expert in congressional oversight and the director of the Levin Center’s Washington, D.C. office. Bean died earlier this year. Her co-author, Kyle Bule, serves as the Levin Center’s research and communications specialist. Both authors were supported by the Levin Center in efforts to bring this important work to life.

“Congress Investigates: George Washington to January 6th” is available on Amazon in print, Kindle, and audiobook formats.

The Carl Levin Center for Oversight and Democracy is a division of Wayne State University Law School.
