God,
We
give You praise, glory, and honor today. We acknowledge You as the Creator and
Sustainer of the Universe, the giver of all good gifts. We thank You for Your
grace and care and for Your love for all of Your children, regardless of their
creed, color, status, orientation, party, citizenship, or origin.
O
God, because You are the ultimate source of wisdom, we ask that You give the
members of this great assembly an extra measure of wisdom and discernment. We
pray that You would lead them to reason together for the good of the state of
Michigan and for the ultimate good of all of Your people. We pray that You
would lead them to deliberate and to act in ways that would help to improve the
lives of all of Your children in this great State and beyond. We pray that You
would give them courage to do what is good and right, even if it is not easy or
popular. We pray for their safety and well-being and for the safety and
well-being of all of Your children.
Finally,
our God, today we pray for peace. We pray for Your continued blessings, and we
pray that You would ever guide and help us to be good stewards of those
blessings.
Amen.”

Motions and Resolutions
Reps.
Bollin, Calley, Crawford, Hood, Hope, Sneller and Witwer offered the following
resolution:
House Resolution No. 197.
A resolution to commemorate the
centennial of the American Legion Auxiliary.
Whereas, The American Legion was
chartered by Congress in 1919 as a wartime veterans organization based on the
four pillars of care for veterans, national security, Americanism, and children
and youth; and
Whereas, The members of the American
Legion are dedicated to upholding the ideals of freedom and democracy, while
working to make a difference in the lives of fellow Americans. The American
Legion Auxiliary was founded at the American Legion’s second convention on
November 10, 1919; and
Whereas, The American Legion Auxiliary
was founded to support the American Legion and honor the sacrifice of those who
serve by enhancing the lives of our veterans, military, and their families,
both at home and abroad. The American Legion Auxiliary has stood alongside the
American Legion as advocates for veterans’ rights, including passage of the GI
Bill, enhancing U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs benefits, and ending
homelessness among veterans; and
Whereas, The American Legion Auxiliary
is celebrating its centennial in 2019-2020; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of
Representatives, That the members of this legislative body commemorate the
centennial of the American Legion Auxiliary. We honor the more than 600,000
members of the ALA as one of the nation’s most prominent supporters of
veterans, military, and their families; and be it further
Resolved, That a copy of this
resolution be transmitted to the American Legion Auxiliary as evidence of our
highest esteem.
The
question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The
resolution was adopted.
Reps.
O’Malley, Calley, Crawford, Hood, Love, Manoogian, Rendon, Sneller and Witwer
offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 198.
A resolution to declare November 2019
as Adoption Awareness Month in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, Children thrive in loving
families where they are nurtured, comforted, and protected; and
Whereas, It is important to recognize
the valuable contributions of individuals who travel the rewarding journey of
adoption by providing love, guidance, and hope for children whose lives have
been filled with change and uncertainty. It is also important to recognize the
choice of adoption for women as a loving option when faced with unplanned
pregnancies; and
Whereas, We are committed to working as
a partner with social service agencies, organizations in communities, and child
advocates to help recruit and support adoptive families who make a difference
in developing positive outcomes for our children; and
Whereas, Finding nurturing permanent
homes for waiting children is a worthy objective to work toward throughout the
year. During November, special efforts are made to instill a greater perception
of the need for adoptive families and the choice of adoption; and
Whereas, Communities across the nation
observe National Adoption Month to raise awareness and encourage citizens to
become involved in the lives of these youth as adoptive parents, volunteers, or
mentors. We understand the importance of adoption and honor those who choose an
adoption plan and those who provide children with a loving home; now,
therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of
Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare November
2019 as Adoption Awareness Month in the state of Michigan. We call upon all
citizens to observe this occasion.
The
question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The
resolution was adopted.
Reps.
Witwer, Garza, Brixie, Brenda Carter, Kennedy, Cynthia Johnson, Chirkun,
Manoogian, Hammoud, Wittenberg, Bollin, Hood, Hope, Love, Sneller, Sowerby and
Stone offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 199.
A resolution to declare December 1-7,
2019, as Cancer Screen Week in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, In 2019, the American Cancer
Society estimates more than 600,000 people will lose their lives to cancer in
the United States. Approximately 21,150 of these deaths will be in Michigan;
and
Whereas, The National Cancer Institute
estimates up to 210,000 deaths in United States could be avoided with early and
appropriate cancer screening; and
Whereas, The cancer death rate dropped
25 percent between 1991 and 2014 because of reductions in smoking and advances
in early detection and treatment; and
Whereas, Specifically, according to the
American Cancer Society, the five-year relative survival rate for cancers found
at the local stage are about 55 percent of lung cancers, 90 percent of colon
and rectum cancers, 91 percent of cervical cancers, 99 percent of breast
cancers, and 98 percent for melanoma of the skin cancers; and
Whereas, Many of these cancers are
often preventable and early detection and treatment are critical as cancer does
not always cause symptoms and many occur in people with no family history; and
Whereas, Specific cancer types
disproportionately affect different populations. For example, breast cancer is
the most common form of cancer among women, prostate cancer rates in black men
are almost double those of other men, cervical cancer is more prevalent among
Hispanic and African-American women, two out of three people diagnosed with
lung cancer are 65 or older, and melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer,
is among the most common cancers in young adults; and
Whereas, According to the U.S. Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention, rates of screening for many cancer types in
recommended populations remain substantially below Healthy People 2020 targets;
and
Whereas, It is critical to reinforce
the need for people to discuss their individual risk factors for cancer with
their healthcare providers and understand the recommendations for and benefits
of cancer screening; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the
House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare
December 1‑7, 2019, as Cancer Screen Week in
the state of Michigan. We encourage all citizens of Michigan to visit
cancerscreenweek.org for cancer screening resources and talk to their
healthcare providers about risk factors and recommended screening options for
all cancer types including, but not limited to, breast, cervical, colon, lung,
prostate, and skin cancers. We recognize the burden of cancer in our country
and state and urge all to talk with their healthcare providers about
appropriate screenings for prevention and early detection of cancer.
The
question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The
resolution was adopted.
______
The Speaker resumed the Chair.
The
Speaker, on behalf of the entire membership of the House of Representatives, offered
the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 200.
A resolution of tribute for the
Honorable Sheldon Neeley.
Whereas, It is a privilege to extend
the congratulations of the House of Representatives to the Honorable Sheldon
Neeley as he completes his service with this legislative body. For the last
five years, Representative Neeley has been a strong advocate for the people of
Flint living in the Thirty-fourth District and a respected colleague; and
Whereas, A lifelong resident of Flint,
Representative Neeley brought to Lansing a wealth of experience. A graduate of
Flint Northern High School, he went on to earn an associate’s degree from Delta
College and a bachelor’s degree in communications from Saginaw Valley State
University. He worked for 27 years with a local Flint TV station, retiring as a
broadcast technician, and has been a leader in the local union. He also spent
ten years as a work experience counselor with at-risk youth in the Flint
Community Schools and four years as a member of the Flint Civil Service
Commission. Prior to his election to the House of Representatives in 2014, he
served for nine years on the Flint City Council, the first African-American to
represent the city’s Sixth Ward; and
Whereas, As a member of this
legislative body, Representative Neeley has worked tirelessly to further the
issues important to his community: public safety, public education, economic
opportunity, safe drinking water, and criminal justice reform. Over his years
of service, he has served on the Ways and Means, Health Policy, Michigan Competitiveness, Tax Policy, Commerce and Trade, Local
Government, and Transportation and Infrastructure committees. At the
same time, he has been a leader within the Michigan Legislative Black Caucus,
serving as chair for the last three years; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of
Representatives, That we offer this expression of tribute to commend and thank
the Honorable Sheldon Neeley for his notable contributions to this legislative
body and our entire state; and be it further
Resolved, That copies of this
resolution be transmitted to Representative Neeley as evidence of our gratitude
and best wishes as he assumes the position of mayor of Flint.
The
question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The
resolution was adopted.
