'The leader we need'

From Howard Rosenberg, Bloomfield Hills:

With an unprecedented number of seniors living in Michigan today, the next state representative in the 39th District needs to be committed to supporting our aging population. Bubba Urdan is knowledgeable on senior issues, understands senior needs, and has promised no new taxes on pensions, benefits, or retirement.

As a past president of the Federation of Metropolitan Detroit Senior Apartments board, I had the pleasure of working with Bubba and seeing him contribute, always in a positive and meaningful way. Bubba was quick to study all issues presented and provide insightful leadership.

Like most baby boomers, I recognize Michigan needs to embrace our young leaders and a fresh perspective on the status quo, but we also need our voices heard. Bubba Urdan will bridge the gap between young and old, and do so with an ear to the past and an eye on the future. This is the leader we need.
