District

Source: Wikipedia

Haley Stevens MI-11 1Michigan’s 11th congressional district is a United States congressional district north of Detroit, comprising most of urbanized central Oakland County. Until 1993, the district covered the state’s Upper Peninsula and the northernmost portion of the Lower Peninsula (a.k.a. Northern Michigan). In redistricting that year, it was shifted to the outer Detroit area. Its former geographical area is now the state’s first district. Its current configuration dates from 2023.

The 11th district was represented by Thad McCotter from 2003 until his resignation on July 6, 2012.[3][4] He was replaced by Democrat David Curson, who won a special election on November 6, 2012.[4][5] Curson was sworn in on November 13. He was replaced by Kerry Bentivolio in January 2013, who had been elected in the regular fall election in 2012.[4][6] David Trott was elected in 2014 after defeating Bentivolio in the Republican primary, and took office in January 2015. He did not seek reelection in 2018. Democrat Haley Stevens was elected on November 6, 2018, and is the current representative for the eleventh district.

Haley Maria Stevens[1] (born June 24, 1983) is an American politician serving as the U.S. representative from Michigan’s 11th congressional district since 2019. A member of the Democratic Party, Stevens represents most of urbanized Oakland County, including many of Detroit‘s northern suburbs.

Stevens was elected to represent the 11th district in the 2022 election, defeating 9th district incumbent Andy Levin in the primary and Republican nominee Mark Ambrose in the general election.

Early life and career

Stevens grew up in Rochester Hills, Michigan and graduated from Seaholm High School in Birmingham, Michigan. She went to American University and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in political science and philosophy; she received a Master of Arts degree in social policy and philosophy.[2] She became involved in politics in 2006, working for the Michigan Democratic Party as a volunteer organizer. She worked on Hillary Clinton‘s and Barack Obama‘s presidential campaigns in 2008; she worked with Clinton before the primary.[3]

In 2009, Steven Rattner hired Stevens to join the Presidential Task Force on the Auto Industry, and she was his chief of staff.[3] She next worked for the Digital Manufacturing and Design Innovation Institute in Chicago, returning to Michigan in 2017.[4]

Elections

2018

During January and February 2017, Stevens moved back to Rochester Hills. She announced her candidacy for the United States House of Representatives seat in Michigan’s 11th congressional district in April 2017. The district had been represented by two-term Republican Dave Trott.[5] Trott announced his retirement in September 2017, making the 11th district an open seat.[4] Stevens defeated state Representative Tim Greimel in the Democratic Party primary election[6] and Republican businesswoman Lena Epstein in the general election.[7] Her victory, and that of Elissa Slotkin in the neighboring 8th district, made it the first time since the 1930s that no Republicans represented Oakland County in the House.[8] She became the first Democrat to represent the 11th for a full term since the 11th and the 9th districts were reconfigured in 2003.

Stevens and Colin Allred, both alumni of the Obama administration, were selected as co-presidents of the House Democratic freshman class of the 116th United States Congress.[9]

2020

Stevens ran for reelection. She was unopposed in the Democratic primary.[10] In the general election, she defeated the Republican nominee, Eric Esshaki, by less of a margin than was expected.[11]

2022

See also: 2022 United States House of Representatives elections in Michigan § District 11

Stevens defeated Andy Levin, 60%-40%, becoming the first woman to represent the 11th District.[12][13] As a result of population loss, Michigan lost a seat in the United States House of Representatives. The newly drawn 11th District put Stevens and fellow Congressman Andy Levin in the same district. The redrawing of the district covered more of Stevens’s earlier electoral base.[14][15] She reportedly outspent Levin by a factor of five.[14] Her victory was aided by $5 million from EMILY’s List[15] and by the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, which invested $4 million targeting Levin and hailed her victory as proof that “being pro-Israel is both good policy and good politics”.[16][17][18] Changes in generational and gender dynamics are also said to have played an important role, with a long term Oakland Democrat trend to favor women, and the impact of the Supreme Court‘s overturning the Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey precedents regarding abortion.[19]

Tenure

Stevens voted with President Joe Biden‘s stated position 100% of the time in the 117th Congress, according to a FiveThirtyEight analysis.[20]
