Initial career
After graduation, Granholm enlisted for Judge Damon Keith, a Senior Judge in the US Court of Appeal for the Sixth Circuit, from 1987 to 1988. He also worked for Michael Dukakis's campaign for the President in the 1988 election. After working as a lawyer in Wayne County executive office from 1989 until 1991, he became Assistant US Attorney for the Eastern District of Michigan in 1991. He helped prosecute drug dealers, gang members and child pornography, sued the country and fought against credit card fraud. Of the 154 people he tried, 151 were sentenced.

Attorney General of Michigan
election 1998
Thirty-seven-year-old Democratic Attorney Frank J. Kelley chose not to run for a 10th term in 1998 and Granholm entered the race to replace him. Undeterred for the Democratic nomination, he faced Republican John Smietanka, 1994 nominee and former US Attorney for the Western District of Michigan, in an election. The campaign began as a relatively friendly campaign, with both agreeing that they wanted to expand the Internet Crime Unit, launch programs to combat environmental crime and continue working as consumer advisors, as Kelley did.
However, the race changed bitterly in mid-September, when Smietanka runs a television commercial calling Granholm a liberal "inexperienced" and "dangerous". He also tried to link Granholm with the crime plans of Democratic governor Geoffrey Fieger, who called for greater emphasis on rehabilitation for non-violent criminals and shortened their prison sentences. Granholm, who had ruled out Fieger's crime plan on the day of his launch, said the claim was "lies, just lies" and that as Attorney General, "you are the one who protects the consumer from deceptive advertising." Asked what distinguished him from Smietanka, Granholm replied, "besides honesty?" Kelley also came to the Granholm defense, starring in an advertisement where he called the Smietanka ad "garbage" and "cons" and accused him of running a "dishonest campaign". For his part, Smietanka is angered by the Democratic advertisement that refers to the late child support payments he made and claimed that he had lied about how much his own money had contributed to his campaign.
After a close race, with a poll showing both candidates with an almost identical vote, Granholm defeated Smietanka with 1,557,310 votes (52.09%) to 1,432,604 (47.91%). After Granholm was elected governor in 2002, a debate broke out between Smietanka and Republican Governor John Engler about who was most responsible for Granholm's rapid rise in Michigan politics. Smietanka blamed Engler for trying to force him out of the 1998 race for G. Scott Romney, for dabbing about lost child support payments and for not supporting him more fully after he defeated Romney at the Republican convention. Engler argues that Smietanka is a weak candidate who should have stepped aside for Romney, who will defeat the inexperienced Granholm; he would not have a launch pad for his governor's campaign in 2002.
Tenure
Granholm was inducted into office on January 3, 1999, becoming Michigan's first female Attorney General. He served a term of office, from 1999 to 2003. At the office, he continued Kelley's work in protecting citizens and consumer rights and setting up Michigan's First High-Tech Crime Unit, appointing Terrence G. Berg as its first Chairman.
In April 1999, Granholm announced a lawsuit against RVP Development, Arcadia Bluffs Golf Course builder, alleging that poor construction of its roads had caused the disposal of illegal sediments to Lake Michigan from erosion following a severe storm in 1998, which had "turned the gap into the abyss broken ". President of the development company Richard Postma refused to pay the $ 425,000 state penalty, saying that he had made a move to stop the erosion and accused Granholm of trying to make him "a poster boy for his future campaign." Granholm responded that "his perception of his political landscape in Michigan is as bad as his ability to build a golf landscape." After years of negotiations and legal disputes, the lawsuit was resolved in August 2003, with RVP Development agreeing to pay a $ 125,000 fine.
In July 2000, Granholm's office settled with J.C. Penney after retailers made a lot of pricing and scanning errors in stores in Michigan. This issue is of concern to the Prosecutor-General's office after "recurring and worsening error rates" that saw 33% of the goods sold in December 1999 were sold for more in the register than those listed on the shelves. J.C. Penney paid a fine and agreed to appoint a "price association" to monitor the error in pricing.
After the 11 September 2001 attacks, Granholm directed state agencies to work with lawmakers in guarding the war on terrorism within state power. He also enacted a regulation on gasoline dealers to keep them from raising prices dramatically, something that happened sporadically in Michigan immediately after the attack. In February 2002, Granholm announced that his office merged with Michigan State Office Michigan to help consumers fight telephony from telemarketers.
Michigan Governor
election 2002
In the 2002 elections, the ruling Governor of the Republic John Engler was limited and could not run for re-election for a fourth term in office. Republicans united around Lieutenant Governor Engler, Dick Posthumus. Meanwhile, Granholm faces competitive competition against former US Ambassador to Canada and former Governor James Blanchard as well as US Representative and former Parliamentary Chief, Whip David E. Bonior. Blanchard was defeated for re-election by Engler in 1990 and Bonior resigned as Democrats Whip to run for governor, his Council seat having been completely redrawn in redistricting to make it all but unforgivable for him.
Granholm, seen by many as a "new face" after Engler's rule for twelve years, raised more money than Blanchard and Bonior and consistently led them in a poll with a large margin. His campaign led to an increase in the number of voters among women and he comfortably won the Democratic party with 499,129 votes (47.69%) to Bonior 292,958 (27.99%) and 254,586 from Blanchard (24.32%).
Granholm is a heavy favorite in the general election, with the strong support of working women, African-Americans and voters under 30 years old. He campaigned for his record of crime and was considered more charismatic than posthumous. Although the 2002 election was a good year for the national Republic, which controlled the US Senate and increased their power in the US, Granholm went on to defeat Posthumus with 1,633,796 votes (51.42%) to 1,506,104 (47.40%).
First term: 2003-2007
Granholm was sworn in as Governor of 47 states of Michigan on January 1, 2003. After his inauguration, in addition to being the first female governor of the country, he also became the third governor who was not a US-born citizen. The state and all four are not born in the United States. Two people who were not originally born to nature were Fred M. Warner, who was born in England and became Governor 26 from 1905 to 1911; and John Swainson, who was also born in Canada and was the 42nd Governor from 1961 to 1963. George W. Romney, who was born in Mexico and became the 27th Governor from 1963 to 1969, is a citizen born natural by nationality US parents at the time of his birth.
Granholm emphasizes Michigan's need to attract young people and businesses through the Cool Cities Initiative. As governor, he is a member of the National Governors Association, who heads the Health and Human Services Committee and leads the Health Care Task Force. He is also the former chair of the Midwestern Governor's Association. He lives in the official residence of the Michigan Governor, located near the Capitol Building.
In 2003, Granholm ran five miles across the Mackinac Bridge, which connects the two state peninsula, within 47 minutes of the Mackinac Bridge Walk. His escape started a new tradition, and in 2004 saw the first annual Workers' Day Bridge Meeting held a few hours before the Annual Bridge Road. This time he finished the race in less than 45 minutes.
During Granholm's first year in office, he made a substantial amount of budget cuts to handle a $ 1.7 billion deficit (about 2% of the country's annual budget). He is disappointed with the proposal to cut state funding for social welfare programs, such as homeless shelters and mental health agents. During the interview, he reflects on his views on the proper budget cut perspective:
Often those who wrap themselves with the coat of religiosity happen to be the biggest cutter. Now, some of them can keep up. But when you have to cut the service for the least of these - in the 25th chapter of Matthew in verse 37 the Lord says, 'Whatever you do for the least of these, so do you do to me' - that's when I question whether someone really live their faith. "The interviewer noted that Granholm would be criticized, but he hoped that everyone would" keep these values ​​in mind... through the budget process. "Betsy DeVos, Michigan Republican president (1996-2000, 2003-05), disappointed that Granholm has decided "to veil his views on balancing the religious budget to incite his political opponents." Granholm replied that he did not think his response was controversial and said that many faithful people serve in the state government.
Granholm has been a supporter of educational reform since the first year of his tenure. In its first State State Address in 2003, Granholm announced the Great Start Project to focus on educational reform for children from birth to age 5. The Great Start project has coordinated public and private efforts to encourage educating new parents and encouraging parents to read to them children.
Granholm emphasized post-secondary education for Michiganders following the decline in Michigan manufacturing jobs, many of which do not require a college degree. In 2004 he asked the Governor of Lt. John D. Cherry to lead the Commission on Higher Education and Economic Growth to double the number of college graduates in Michigan. Much of the Commission's recommendations passed into law during Granholm's term as governor, for example, increased the high school graduation standard (The Michigan Merit Curriculum) so that every Michigan high school student took a college preparatory curriculum, which included four years of mathematics and English/linguistic art and three years of science and social studies, starting with students entering secondary school in the fall of 2006.
At the awards ceremony on October 28, 2004, Granholm was inducted into the "Michigan Women's Hall of Fame". He has also been a recipient of the Michigan Jaycees 1999 "Outstanding Young Michiganders" and the YWCA "Woman of the Year" award.
During the 2004 presidential election in Michigan, Granholm campaigned fiercely for Democratic candidate John Kerry after an early poll showing President George W. Bush with a narrow leadership. He called the economy a major concern for Michiganders, not the Iraq War or the War on Terror, which means that with "bigger deficits, the Dow declines, unemployment claims rise, reaching all-time highs, General Motors gains below expectations, with health claims crippling profits, flu vaccine in short supply, rising oil prices, "his country was devastated.
In February 2005, Republican-dominated Republican legislatures in Michigan refused to vote on Granholm's proposed state budget, citing concerns about cuts to state funding for higher education. In previous years of Granholm's tenure, many cuts to higher education have been requested and elected in the legislature to balance the state budget. The previous year, Republican leaders have referred to Granholm as a "do nothing" governor, claiming that he failed to lead, while the Democrats accused legislative parliamentarians of being dissidents. In January 2005, Granholm presented an initial budget proposal, demanded an immediate response from the Legislature, and held a press conference outlining the highlights of the proposed budget. After refusing to consider, debate, or vote on the proposed budget, Republicans declared that they would prefer that the legislature has more involvement in the formation of the state budget.
The Michigan economy has lost its jobs since 2000, largely due to a decline in the American manufacturing sector. Granholm supports Michigan's economic diversification away from its historical dependence on automotive manufacturing. He pushed through the $ 21 billion Employment Fund $ 21 to pull jobs into Michigan in the life sciences, alternative energy, advanced manufacturing, and domestic security sectors. Granholm also supports alternative energy jobs to Michigan to replace lost car manufacturing jobs.
Election 2006
Granholm ran for a second term in the 2006 election. His opponent was Republican businessman and politician Dick DeVos.
Both the Granholm campaign and the Michigan Democratic Party issued a television commercial produced by Joe Slade White that focused on his efforts to revive the Michigan economy and accused DeVos of cutting jobs in Michigan while he was the head of what Amway later called. Granholm won re-election, defeating DeVos. The election results are 56% for Granholm, 42% for DeVos, and slightly more than one percent for candidate Gregory Creswell, Douglas Campbell, and Bhagwan Dashairya. Granholm's share of the vote was 4.9 percent higher than his first governor's election in 2002. Granholm's campaign was run by Howard Edelson.
Second term: 2007-2011
The 2006 election saw the Democrats return to power in the Michigan State House of Representatives and retained Republican control over the Michigan Senate. The division of partisan power in the state government of Michigan led to a confrontation between Granholm and MPs over the 2008 state budget that resulted in the closure of four hours of unnecessary state services on the morning of October 1, 2007, until the budget was passed. and signed. Budget-cutting services, freeze state expenditure in areas such as the arts, increase state income taxes, and create a new set of service taxes on businesses, for example, ski lifts and interior designs and landscaping companies, to address the country's budget shortfalls. As a result of the controversial budget, some taxpayers and business advocates are calling for a recall campaign against Granholm and MPs who opt for a tax increase.
Budget crisis finally leads Standard & amp; Poor's to downgrade Michigan's credit rating from AA to AA-. In addition, the crisis contributed to a downgrade of approval for Granholm, which rose from 43 percent in August 2007 to 32 percent in December 2007. He has one of the lowest approval ratings for any governor in the United States.
In 2007, Granholm proposed and signed the No Worker Left Behind Act law to provide two years of free training or community colleges for unemployed and displaced workers. Since its launch in August 2007, more than 130,000 people have re-registered. The program financed $ 5,000 a year for tuition fees, or $ 10,000 per person, and included retraining in jobs with high demand and emerging industries.
The Department of Energy, Labor and Economic Growth reported back in October 2009 that 62,206 people were registered and that of 34,355 who had completed the training, 72% had found employment or maintained their positions and 18,000 were still in long-term or short-term training. 16% of all enrollments have been withdrawn or failed to complete the training. As of July 2010, more than two years after the program was launched, 65,536 people were trained or engaged in on-the-job training. Dropouts have been reduced to 13.1% of enrollment.
Granholm delivered his sixth State speech on January 29, 2008. The speech focuses primarily on job creation in Michigan by bringing alternative energy companies to Michigan. Through passing renewable portfolio standards, which will require 10 percent of Michigan's energy to come from renewable sources by 2015 and 25 percent by 2025, Granholm expects the alternative energy industry to emerge in Michigan. Since the passage of standards, Mariah Power, Global Wind Systems, Cascade Swift Turbine, Great Lakes Turbine, and 38 other companies have announced new projects in Michigan. The solar and wind power industry now provides more than 10,000 jobs in Michigan. As a result of Granholm's efforts, Michigan is now fourth in the country in the number of jobs in the country's first solar power industry for clean energy patents.
Granholm also called for a speech for an incentive package to offer tax breaks to filmmakers who were filming in Michigan and using local crews in production. The bill package offering film industry incentives was approved by both Michigan legislative assemblies and signed into law by Granholm on April 7, 2008.
Partly due to pressure from Granholm, the Michigan Democratic presidential primary was moved to 15 January, leading the Democratic National Committee to disarm the Michigan Democratic Party from its delegates (Michigan has historically hosted its caucus on Feb. 9). Granholm has been chosen by some as a possible candidate for the US Attorney General. He is chairman of the policy of the Democratic Governor's Association.
On April 29, 2008, Granholm underwent emergency surgery to repair bowel obstruction from a 1993 accident. Because of the operation, Granholm had to postpone the trip to Israel and Kuwait. He finally traveled in November 2008 and signed a water technology partnership agreement with the Israeli government. In addition, he delivered a keynote address at an automotive event hosted by the Israel Business Bridge of Michigan and the Israeli Export Institute.
In response to May 14, 2008, a resolution by the Detroit City Council that Granholm remove Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick from office due to eight (then ten) criminal counts against him, Granholm began an investigation that culminated in the abolition hearing on September 3, 2008. On September 3, Granholm describes the legal basis for the trial, the argument is made, and three witnesses are summoned. On the morning of September 4, Kilpatrick approved two defense transactions in which he pleaded guilty to two counts of perjury and there was no contest one charge of attacking and blocking a police officer in two separate cases. Both agreements require his resignation. When the trial resumed that day, Granholm declared that the trial would be postponed until September 22 as a result of the plea agreement and that if Kilpatrick's resignation became effective before that, the trial would be canceled.
In September 2008, Governor Granholm undertook the role of Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin in a series of practice debates with Democratic vice presidential candidate Joe Biden.
With Barack Obama elected as president, Granholm joins a team of economic advisers, and there is speculation that he may join the Obama administration. On May 13, 2009, the Associated Press reported that President Obama was considering Granholm, inter alia, for possible appointment to the United States Supreme Court. Eventually Obama chose Sonia Sotomayor.
In 2010 Granholm was unable to seek re-election due to Michigan's legal term limit. The term of Governor of Granholm ended on January 1, 2011, when Republic Rick Snyder, who won the 2010 election, was sworn in.
Next career
Granholm is a prominent public law and policy professor at UC Berkeley Goldman Public Policy School and UC Berkeley Law School. In Autumn 2011, he taught a postgraduate course entitled "Governance in Difficult Times". He is also a senior researcher at Berkeley Energy and Climate Institute (BECI) Faculty and a project scientist at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. As senior adviser to the Cleaner Energy Program of The Pew Charitable Trusts and founder of the American Jobs Project at UC Berkeley, Granholm pioneered campaigns for a national clean energy policy that promotes and fund America's energy independence and manufacturing and homemade innovations for advanced wind, solar, and battery industries across the United States. She is a regular contributor to the NBC talkshow Meet Meet Press, has written about US energy policy and has written a book with her husband, The Story of a Governor: The Struggle for Work and the Future of Economics America, released in September 2011 and about the lessons Michigan can offer to America.
Granholm served on the board of directors of the Dow Chemicals Company from March to October 2011. In October 2011, TV Now announced that it will join its new political primetime ranks as host of the new Space Warfare program with Jennifer Granholm. > In January 2013, he announced that he left the network because of sales to Al Jazeera.
In October 2012, he became a "household name" after delivering what was described as a "hyperactive" and "sharp-tongued" speech at the Democratic National Convention 2012 in Charlotte, North Carolina, on 6 September. Granholm's speech centered on the 2008-2010 automotive industry crisis; in particular, President Obama's decision to rescue General Motors and Chrysler, his beneficial effects on the US economy, and opposition Mitt Romney against the bailout.
In January 2014, he was chosen to lead alongside the Priorities USA Action against Jim Messina. He has previously stated that Hillary Clinton "is the strongest candidate out there should he decide to raise his hand" in connection with the upcoming 2016 Presidential Election. Granholm previously supported former Secretary of State Barack Obama in the 2008 election campaign. He is considered running for the United States Senate in 2014 to replace Democratic lawmaker Carl Levin but decides not to do so. In August 2015, months after Hillary Clinton's campaign announcement for 2016 Presidential Election, Granholm transitioned from USA Action Priorities for Rectifying the Record, another Clinton-aligned political committee that allowed the Granholm to serve as a direct "replacement" for Hillary Clinton on the trail campaign.
Speculation back to office
Granholm was twice named as a possible US Energy Secretary, first in December 2008 when President-elect Obama assembled his first cabinet and again in December 2010, when it was rumored that Secretary Steven Chu might resign. His attitude in domestic drilling is summarized by his quote "If you open any potential drilling opportunities in the United States, it will have the effect of lowering the price of three cents, maybe, and that is because, of course, oil is traded in the global market."
Granholm has also been twice considered by President Obama as a potential candidate for the Supreme Court. In May 2009, he was included in the list of candidates to replace retired Judge-Young David Souter. He attended the CAFE standard meeting at the White House on May 19 and spoke with Obama, but officials would not comment whether the two discussed the possibility of appointing the court. Obama chose Sonia Sotomayor, which was confirmed by the Senate in August. After the retirement of Associate Justice John Paul Stevens in May 2010, Granholm was once again spoken of as a potential candidate; Obama elected Elena Kagan, who was confirmed in August.
In March 2011, with Tim Kaine ready to step down as chairman of the Democratic National Committee to run for the US Senate from Virginia in 2012, Granholm was mentioned as a possible replacement. However, he explained early on that he is not interested, which has reportedly "shocked" the senior Democrats, who were "shocked and disappointed" that Granholm had fled. US representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz of Florida was elected instead.
After President Obama was re-elected in 2012, Granholm is reportedly considered for a position in Obama's second-term Cabinet, specifically to replace Chu as Energy Secretary Ray LaHood as US Transport Minister Hilda Solis as US Labor Minister or Eric Holder as US Attorney General. Granholm himself dampened the speculation, citing his sharp criticism of the Republicans during the 2012 election and the time to appear on TV Today.
In March 2013, Michigan Senior Michigan Senator, Democrat Carl Levin, announced that he would not run for a seventh term in 2014. Granholm was mentioned as a candidate to replace him, but he announced shortly afterwards that he would not run for office. He supports US Representative Gary Peters, who defeated Republican nominee Terri Lynn Land in the general election.
In September 2014 when US Attorney General Eric Holder announced his intention to step down, there was speculation that Granholm might be a potential candidate to replace him. Loretta Lynch was finally nominated and confirmed for the position.
There has been speculation that the increased visibility of Granholm from his senior role in Clinton's campaign indicates that he will be considered for a position in the US Cabinet or the leadership of the Democratic National Committee if Clinton wins the 2016 election.
Personal life
When Granholm at Harvard, he met with law students and native Michigan Daniel Mulhern, a graduate of theology from Yale University. They married in 1986 and they took their respective family names as their middle names. They have three children, Connor, Cecelia, and Jack.
As Governor of Michigan, Granholm was awarded the honorary title Your Majesty .
On October 21, 2010, Granholm was made Commander of the Royal Order of the Polar Star, First Class, by the King of Sweden "for his work in fostering relations between Michigan and Sweden to promote a clean energy economy."
