Let's make this birthday one to remember.

71 years old (Born on May 01, 1953)

Happy Birthday, Congressman Ed Perlmutter! Another year older, wiser, and still tirelessly representing Colorado's 7th district. You've navigated the halls of Congress since 2007 with grace and humor—proving that politics can indeed have a friendly face. Your dedication to renewable energy initiatives and support for small businesses has made you a true champion for Coloradans.

Here's hoping your birthday is filled with as much joy as your famous "Government in the Grocery" events bring to constituents. May your day be free of filibusters, full of bipartisan cake-sharing, and may you continue legislating with passion—and perhaps fewer committee meetings!
