		<description>I have known Sen Birkholtz since she came to the State House years ago. She has a unique ability to solve issues by putting pressure on both sides, finding their real bottom line positions and discovering compromises the parties probably didn&#039;t even think possible.

The State House will lose a real pro when term limits ends her career.</description>

		<description>Refreshing!  Most positive comments I&#039;ve ever heard about one of our lawmakers. We need more lawmakers with Senator Birkholz integrity and concern for citizens in both political parties in Michigan, all other states, and in Washington.  Where can I send an electronic Thank-You to Senator Birkholz?</description>
