Mr. Fred Stefani, from the Knights of Columbus in Warren, offered the following invocation:
"Dear Father, Thank You for Your blessings as we begin this legislative day. May Your spirit be with all of the elected officials here who represent our great lake state. Let us remember how privileged we are to live in a country where freedom and democracy are truly a direct result of Your blessings. Only You know the true needs of each and every person throughout the state. Dear God, provide those in need of food--enough to eat, those in need of health--your healing touch. Those in need of direction--your guidance. As we move forward this season of Easter, let us remember the meaning of sacrifice and how Your son, Jesus Christ, provided himself as the ultimate sacrifice for us and our sins; and that his mother, the Virgin Mary, continues to ask God, the Father for our protection when we pray and honor her throughout the rosary. May all of us here today be welcomed into Your eternal kingdom as Your good and faithful servants. Heavenly Father, we ask that You send forth Your spirit upon the members of this House, having been elected to serve the needs of the people of Michigan. Give them wisdom in their deliberations and courage to guide them. Keep them, their families and staffs always in Your love. Amen."

Rep. Jamnick, having reserved the right to explain her protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:
"Mr. Speaker and members of the House:
I have serious concerns about some of the legislation being passed under the guise of being able to respond appropriately to terrorism and those who would do such terrible things. This bill allows a magistrate to suppress a warrant and/or a tabulation of seized items even from the person whose property is being seized until charged with a crime or named as a party in a civil forfeiture action."
Reps. Hansen, Williams, Lipsey, Waters, Hardman, Whitmer, Bogardus, Minore, Kolb, Hale, Dennis, Daniels, Clark, Lemmons, Rison, Murphy, Reeves, Zelenko, Woodward and Adamini, having reserved the right to explain their protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:
"Mr. Speaker and members of the House:
I voted no on SB 730 because it removes the ability of an individual to gain immediate access to the reasons behind a police intrusion into their homes for searches and seizures. The 4th Amendment protects citizens against governmental intrusions that are unreasonable, however, under this bill that protection is greatly diluted.
Currently when an officer comes to your home they produce a search warrant providing the specific reasons or probable cause that generated the need for the search. Once the search is made it is left at the home and persons can immediately enter the courthouse to argue their fourth amendment protections. Under SB 730, the probable cause providing the basis of the search can be withheld until that person is ultimately named in a legal action. All this under the guise of protecting persons who supplied law enforcement with the information that started the search in the first place.
If protection of witnesses is the purpose and the sole intent behind this legislation, then it is thwarted by providing the warrant to the defendant at any time and according the United States Supreme Court, the defendant has a constitutional right to this information. While I fully support the need to protect citizens who courageously come forward and provide law enforcement with crucial information to protect our society, safeguards designed to protect every citizen of this country and state should not be trampled to do so."

Motions and Resolutions
Reps. Kolb, Bernero, Thomas, Adamini, Jacobs, Lipsey, Rivet, Lemmons, Howell, Frank, DeRossett, Zelenko, Dennis, Mead, Raczkowski, Lockwood, Spade, Schermesser, Switalski, Jamnick, Waters, Rich Brown, McConico, Neumann, Minore, Bogardus, Daniels, Murphy, Hardman, DeWeese, Hansen, Caul, Faunce, Ehardt, Scranton and Wojno offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 356.
A resolution calling for state and federal funding to defray emergency management costs at Michigan's public colleges and universities.
Whereas, In response to heightened security concerns throughout our state and nation since the September terrorist attacks and subsequent threats, Michigan's public colleges and universities face far greater responsibilities in the task of safeguarding students, staff, visitors, and facilities. The Michigan Legislature is also considering legislation that would amend the Emergency Management Act, 1976 PA 390, with provisions that include significant mandates for our state's larger public colleges and universities; and
Whereas, Michigan's public colleges and universities are entities with far different resources and situations than those facing local units of government. In addition, communities that are home to large universities have responsibilities that are beyond what most local units of government face. Requirements for emergency management placed on the universities--as well as their local host communities--must include the funds to carry out the work. Without accompanying funding, a public college or university would have to raise fees or tuition or both. The only other option would be to greatly curtail other safety and security measures. This is unacceptable to these institutions of learning and the families who send their children to them; and
Whereas, Under the pending legislation amending the Emergency Management Act, public universities with combined average populations exceeding 25,000 would have to appoint an emergency management coordinator with specific duties. To impose this requirement on colleges and universities without funding will make it impossible to bring the level of homeland security on our campuses to the level we wish to achieve; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we call for state and federal funding to defray emergency management costs at Michigan's public colleges and universities and their local host communities; and be it further
Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the Office of the Governor, the President of the United States Senate, the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, and the members of the Michigan congressional delegation.
The resolution was referred to the Committee on Appropriations.

House Concurrent Resolution No. 59.
A concurrent resolution calling for state and federal funding to defray emergency management costs at Michigan's public colleges and universities.

Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the Office of the Governor, the President of the United States Senate, the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, and the members of the Michigan congressional delegation.
The concurrent resolution was referred to the Committee on Appropriations.
Reps. Lemmons, Jacobs, Woronchak, Callahan, Zelenko, Rivet, Palmer, Raczkowski, Lockwood, Spade, Schermesser, Switalski, Jamnick, Waters, Rich Brown, Lipsey, McConico, Neumann, Kolb, Rocca, Daniels, Hardman, Shackleton, Caul, Gieleghem, Bishop, Faunce, Ehardt, Scranton, Drolet and Wojno offered the following concurrent resolution:
House Concurrent Resolution No. 60.
A concurrent resolution to memorialize the Congress of the United States to exempt Social Security benefits from taxation.
Whereas, Social Security benefits are a vital component of the retirement planning of almost all Americans. This successful program, when combined with other strategies and preparation, offers our older citizens the opportunity to enjoy a measure of economic security based on their lifetime of contributing to our society; and
Whereas, For most of the history of Social Security, the benefits have not been subject to taxation. In 1983, however, this was changed, and in 1993 further changes were made to subject more of a person's Social Security benefits to tax when a person's total income exceeds very modest thresholds of income. For a person receiving Social Security benefits, 85 percent of total income above the levels of $34,000 for a single filer and $44,000 for those married and filing jointly is subject to federal income taxes. These income triggers are not adjusted each year for inflation; and
Whereas, There are several strong arguments against taxing Social Security benefits. Taxing Social Security benefits serves as a means test for a program every worker pays taxes to fund. Doing so also amounts to double taxation, because the money that funds the benefits comes from taxes on workers. The policy of taxing these benefits also perpetuates the ill-advised practice of using this program to finance other federal government operations, which erodes trust among our citizens; and
Whereas, Most importantly, taxing these benefits can be a hardship for many seniors, which is in contrast to the historic aims of this safety net program. This is clearly an affront to people who contribute to this system with their payroll taxes throughout their working lives; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), That we memorialize the Congress of the United States to exempt Social Security benefits from taxation; and be it further
Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the President of the United States Senate, the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, and the members of the Michigan congressional delegation.
The concurrent resolution was referred to the Committee on House Oversight and Operations.
Reports of Standing Committees
The Committee on Agriculture and Resource Management, by Rep. DeRossett, Chair, reported
House Resolution No. 314.
A resolution to memorialize the Congress of the United States and the Immigration and Naturalization Service to determine the appropriateness of increasing the number of visas for temporary agricultural workers.
(For text of resolution, see House Journal No. 10, p. 173.)
With the recommendation that the following substitute (H-1) be adopted and that the resolution then be adopted.
Substitute for House Resolution No. 314.
A resolution to memorialize the Congress of the United States and the Immigration and Naturalization Service to determine the appropriateness of increasing the number of visas for temporary agricultural workers.
Whereas, The tragic events of September 11, 2001, have caused us to reexamine a host of policies and practices to do all we can to increase the security of our state and nation. Because of the magnitude of the attacks and the fact that the murderers plotted the attacks over a long period of time, we are now making greater efforts to address the issue of aliens who are here illegally; and
Whereas, As the issue of immigration is closely examined, it is imperative that our nation remember the vitally important role that law-abiding aliens play in our country. Temporary workers meet a necessary and productive need in many sectors of our economy. This is most apparent in the area of agriculture. Michigan, which benefits greatly from the efforts of seasonal agricultural workers, especially from Mexico, is keenly aware of how much these workers contribute to our state; and
Whereas, The country's policies toward temporary agricultural workers need to be assessed in the context of the importance of these people to our nation. The current number of visas for temporary agricultural workers may not be sufficient. If this number is too low, it may have the effect of increasing the number of aliens here without documentation, even though seasonal farm workers would rather be here by following all of the regulations. The current program used for temporary agricultural worker visa processing (H2A) should be reformed. Making the process of gaining the proper visa smoother and increasing the number of these workers who can be here lawfully may well benefit the economy as well as increase national security; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we memorialize the Congress of the United States and the Immigration and Naturalization Service to determine the appropriateness of increasing the number of visas for temporary agricultural workers; and be it further
Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the President of the United States Senate, the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, the members of the Michigan congressional delegation, and the Immigration and Naturalization Service.
The Speaker announced that under Rule 77 the resolution would lie over one day.
