Deborah Ann “Debbie” Stabenow (born Deborah Ann Greer on April 29, 1950 (age 76)), a Democrat, is the senior United States Senator from Michigan. She was elected to the Senate in 2000 and re-elected in 2006, 2012, and 2018. Before becoming a U.S. Senator, Stabenow represented Michigan's 8th congressional district in the U.S. House of Representatives (1997-2001) and served in the Michigan state legislature (1979-1994).
U.S. Senate
Corporate cronyism
Stabenow, an ally of Monsanto, voted against a bill that would have required labeling for foods that contain GMOs.[2] In return, she received three-quarter million dollars from agribusiness interests.[3]
Trump nomination obstructions
Jeff Sessions
Stabenow opposed the nomination of Jeff Sessions to become attorney general in 2017, citing his "sketchy record on civil issues".[4] Stabenow, either out of ignorance or sheer partisan rancor, did not mention that Sessions had previously desegregated schools, broke up the KKK, and secured the death penalty for a white supremacist who murdered a black teenager.[5]
Eugene Scalia
Stabenow voted with her party line against the nomination of Eugene Scalia to become the Secretary of Labor.[6]
Tom Leonard
Stabenow, along with Michigan's junior senator Gary Peters, blocked Trump's nomination of Tom Leonard to be a federal prosecutor in Grand Rapids.[7]
Political positions
While considered a moderate by some on due to her stances on certain issues, such as bank deregulation,[8] Stabenow is a liberal who supports unrestricted abortion, the Obama stimulus, gun control, and ObamaCare.[9] However, she has a strong backing from many farmers that generally lean Republican,[10] as she supports many pro-agribusiness legislations and drafts, such as the USMCA.[11]
