Rep. Kenneth Kurtz, from the 58th District, offered the following invocation:
“Dear Heavenly Father, as we assemble this day, we acknowledge our need of Your divine presence. Over the course of time You have shown Your pleasure with those who have sought Your guidance and Your direction. Most importantly for all who would seek You, they do find You.
Today may we be more than just mindful of You. May we seek You for the guidance and wisdom we need. May we realize and sense Your divine presence.
Help us O God to never forget that we are mortal and thank You, O God, are Holy and immortal. May we seek Your will above our will and give us the wisdom to know the difference.
Today I ask for Your mercy, grace and peace to be with our colleague, Representative Ben Glardon and his family as they mourn the loss of his mother.
As we remember and honor those who have given all in the service of our country, bless their memory and help us to continually dedicate ourselves to preserve our freedoms and God given liberties.
All of these request I humbly asked and in Jesus name I pray,
Amen.”

House Resolution No. 155.
A resolution to declare June 9-15, 2013, as Aquatic Invasive Species Awareness Week in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, Michigan and its economy are defined by the Great Lakes and depend on its great abundance of fresh water for manufacturing, tourism, fishing, public water supplies, agriculture, and numerous other uses; and
Whereas, Preventing the introduction of aquatic invasive species ultimately benefits the state of Michigan, and stopping the introduction of these species would eliminate the need of the State of Michigan, business, industry, and citizens from employing costly methods to control and manage them; and
Whereas, Michigan has taken the lead in protecting the Great Lakes from aquatic invasive species from a number of pathways including organisms in trade, canals and waterways, and recreational activities; and
Whereas, Over 180 nonindigenous aquatic invasive species have been introduced to the Great Lakes, many of which are displacing native species, disrupting habitats; and degrading natural, managed, and agricultural landscapes, resulting in millions of dollars for control efforts each year; and
Whereas, Michigan has over 1 million registered boaters and many other recreational, commercial, and industrial users of over 11,000 lakes and ponds and over 36,000 miles of streams in the state, many of which are impacted by aquatic invasive species; and
Whereas, Aquatic invasive species awareness is an important first step toward behavior change, which prevents the introduction and spread of aquatic invasive species; and
Whereas, Spring marks the beginning of water-related recreational activities in Michigan; and
Whereas, Aquatic Invasive Species Awareness Week is an opportunity for government to join forces with business, industry, environmental groups, community organizations, and citizens to take action against the introduction and spread of aquatic invasive species; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare June 9-15, 2013, as Aquatic Invasive Species Awareness Week in the state of Michigan; and be it further
Resolved, That all citizens must increase their understanding and awareness of aquatic invasive species and their ecological and economic impacts and take preventative measures to stop the spread and introduction of aquatic invasive species; and be it further
Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality, Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, Michigan Department of Natural Resources, Michigan Department of Transportation, Great Lakes Fishery Commission, Council of Great Lakes Governors, Michigan Congressional Delegation, and Great Lakes Commission.

Whereas, Michigan AMBER Alert was launched in 2001 through a public private partnership between the Michigan Association of Broadcasters, Michigan State Police, Michigan Chiefs of Police, The Michigan Sheriffs Association and the Michigan Department of Transportation to locate and recover missing and endangered children within the state; and
Whereas, The Michigan AMBER Alert program was the first in the nation to develop a statewide AMBER Alert system utilizing the eyes and ears of millions of people listening to radio, watching television or viewing MDOTs electronic message boards to successfully recover 315 abducted and endangered children since its inception; and
Whereas, The Michigan State Police and local law enforcement agencies have teamed with Michigan’s broadcasters and other state and local organizations to form an intricate network, one of the best and most comprehensive in the nation, utilizing the latest alerting technology to provide immediate information to the public during an active AMBER Alert; and
Whereas, The Legislature, on behalf of the citizens of the state of Michigan, recognize the important contributions made by the partners and the support of the Michigan AMBER Alert Foundation which has the purpose of helping to fund AMBER Alert in Michigan through the generosity of corporate donors and grants without state funding; now, therefore, be it

The House agreed to the title of the bill.
Rep. Stamas moved that the bill be given immediate effect.
The motion prevailed, 2/3 of the members serving voting therefor.
Rep. McBroom, having reserved the right to explain his protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:
“Mr. Speaker and members of the House:
I am opposing this bill due to two main factors. One is that no sufficient explanation was give for why the Commission of Agriculture or the Director of Agriculture have not already placed the Autumn Olive on the invasive species list. While I have no problem with the legislature also applying its authority to do so, I believe our designation of this authority to the commission was done in good faith of their abilities and expertise. Therefore, at least obtaining an explanation from them was necessary to me to determine the reason why the legislature should act instead.
Also, the bill creates a new designation of a terrestrial invasive species. The department of agriculture did not, or could not, supply significant explanation as to the necessity of this new designation.
After the 2010-2012 significant abuses of the invasive species act and the transfer of the legislative intent from the commissions to the directors by the previous administration it is becoming more and more obvious that serious reform of the Act is urgently needed before new powers and new designations are made. This bill provides those new authorities with no reform and can not obtain my support at this point and should not have the support of this legislature at this point.
Thank you Madame speaker.”
Rep. Dianda, having reserved the right to explain his protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:
“Mr. Speaker and members of the House:
I am opposed to this bill, due to the fact that the Commission of Agriculture or the Director of Agriculture have not placed the Autumn Olive on the invasive species list.”
