SR-208, As Adopted by Senate, December 1, 2010
Senator Prusi offered the following resolution:
Senate Resolution No. 208.
A resolution of tribute to the Honorable Liz Brater.
Whereas, In recognition of her years of dedicated service as a member of the Senate, the members of this legislative body consider it a privilege to laud the distinguished career of Liz Brater. During her tenure, she has represented the 18th Senate District with integrity, commitment, and excellence; and
Whereas, Commitment to public service is an innate quality in the character of Liz Brater. This has been evident throughout her tenure as a lawmaker. With knowledge and expertise, she tackled several issues with great passion, including protecting the environment and improving the treatment of the mentally ill in this state with dignity and compassion. Persistent in her cause and sense of purpose, she continues to be a champion for these and other issues. Indeed, just as she did in three terms in the House of Representatives from 1995 to 2000, she continued this record following her election to the Senate in 2002; and
Whereas, A resident of Ann Arbor since 1975, Liz Brater has compiled a long and impressive list of civic and community contributions, having served as a member of the Ann Arbor City Council and as the first woman to be elected as mayor. She made notable contributions during that time and led the way in the passage and implementation of the city's recycling program and the opening of the city's materials recovery facility. Clearly, Liz Brater has displayed a commitment to others and excellence in leadership and service that provide a sterling example to emulate; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the Senate, That we hereby extend this expression of tribute to the Honorable Liz Brater for her contributions to the Senate; and be it further
Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to Senator Brater as evidence of our gratitude and best wishes.
