Congressman Mike Levin is proud to represent California's 49th Congressional District, which includes North County San Diego and South Orange County.
Currently serving his second term in the House of Representatives, Levin sits on the House Committee on Natural Resources, the House Select Committee on the Climate Crisis, and the House Committee on Veterans’ Affairs, where he serves as Vice Chair of the Committee and Chair of the Subcommittee on Economic Opportunity.
Levin was raised in South Orange County and attended local elementary and junior high schools. He spent his high school years at Loyola High in Los Angeles, and went on to study at Stanford University, where he served as the student body president. Upon graduation from Stanford, Levin served as a Coro Fellow and then attended Duke University School of Law.
Rep. Levin is a champion for the benefits and programs that older Americans rely on, and he strongly opposes any effort to undermine Social Security or Medicare.
Rep. Levin cosponsored the Social Security Fairness Act to repeal provisions of law that unfairly reduce or eliminate Social Security benefits for some Americans who devoted their careers to public service. Rep. Levin will continue to work with colleagues on both sides of the aisle to strengthen, protect, and expand Social Security benefits that older Americans depend on.
He is also a strong proponent of Medicare and will always work to strengthen the program and ensure that older Americans receive the highest quality health care.
Rep. Levin was also proud to support the Supporting Older Americans Act of 2020. This law reauthorizes the Older Americans Act and provides robust investments in critical programs such as Meals on Wheels.
Rep. Levin is committed to ensuring our older Americans can age with dignity. Constituents are encouraged to contact Rep. Levin’s office for assistance with Social Security and Medicare benefits, or any other issues seniors may be having with a federal agency. While our office cannot guarantee favorable outcomes, many of the constituents who have contacted our office have received previously-denied benefits.
