On August 25, 2011, Michigan Congressman Sander Levin, State Representative Marilyn Lane and Assistant Macomb County Executive, Dr. Albert Lorenzo paid a visit to Supreme Gear Company. The topic of conversation was how to create more jobs, specifically defense jobs, in Macomb County. At a roundtable discussion then later during a plant tour to meet the employees, the Congressman spoke of the resources available to small businesses in Michigan, as well as what Washington was considering for the future.
