Fr. William H. Tindall, Pastor of St. Michael the Archangel Catholic Church in Livonia, offered the following invocation:

“Let us Place ourselves in the presence of God and pray.

Lord, Venerable Solanus Casey taught that when we begin prayer that it should begin in a sense of gratitude for what we have received and that for what we hope to receive.

Lord we are grateful for the freedom that we enjoy where men and women can pursue their hopes and dreams and create for themselves a life of integrity.

We are grateful that through the freedom established within the framework of a Constitution that we as a people have that right to elect a governing body that exists for the good of the people.

We are also grateful for the many great blessings that have been given to our beloved state of Michigan with its bountiful resources, its beautiful shore lines and its rich soil. And in a very special way Lord, we are grateful that this state has been gifted with many talented and dedicated people, who throughout its history and to this present day, work to make this a wonderful place to live and raise families.

And so Lord, now, we ask Your great blessing upon those here, who have been chosen by the people of this great state, that You would grant them Your Spirit, so that in all their deliberations they will be guided to accomplish, for the good of all, a just and prosperous society.

What we ask this day we do so with humility before Your majesty, realizing that what has been achieved through human intelligence and courage is Your gift. Please now be with these elected representatives as they carry on the business of Your people. Amen.”

Motions and Resolutions

Reps. Howrylak, Barnett and Brown offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 431.

A resolution to declare November 22, 2014, as Holodomor Memorial Day in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, Millions of Ukrainians perished as a result of the Ukrainian Famine and Genocide (Holodomor) of 1932-33; and

Whereas, The term “Holodomor” is a Ukrainian word that means “extermination by means of starvation” and is used to describe the Ukrainian Famine and Genocide (Holodomor) of 1932-33; and

Whereas, It is recognized that the Soviet authorities denied, concealed, or destroyed information about the Ukrainian Famine and Genocide (Holodomor) of 1932-33 and that accurate information about this tragic event has only recently been made available; and

Whereas, The Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE), the largest regional security organization in the world, passed a resolution that welcomes the recognition of the Holodomor in the United Nations, by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and by the national parliaments of a number of the OSCE participating states; and

Whereas, The OSCE strongly encourages all parliaments and legislatures to adopt acts regarding recognition of the Holodomor; and

Whereas, Some of the survivors of the Ukrainian Famine and Genocide (Holodomor) of 1932-33 and their descendants reside in Michigan and have contributed to Michigan’s cultural, economic, political, and educational life; and

Whereas, The people of Michigan value democratic freedoms, human rights, and the rule of law, honor the values of compassion and honesty, and cherish the multicultural vibrancy of the state; and

Whereas, The 4th Saturday in November has been recognized internationally as a day to commemorate the Ukrainian Famine and Genocide (Holodomor) of 1932-33; and

Whereas, 2014 marks the 81st Anniversary of the Ukrainian Famine and Genocide (Holodomor) of 1932-33; and

Whereas, It is important and fitting to observe Ukrainian Famine and Genocide (Holodomor) Memorial Day for the purposes of recognizing the Ukrainian Famine and Genocide (Holodomor) of 1932-33 and of reflecting on the horrific legacy of this event; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare November 22, 2014, as Holodomor Memorial Day in the state of Michigan.

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

The resolution was adopted.

Reps. Slavens, Hovey-Wright, Segal, Stanley, Geiss, LaVoy, McCann, Kandrevas, Barnett, Brown, Crawford, Heise and Lipton offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 432.

A resolution to declare November 2014 as Alzheimer’s Awareness Month in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, The people of Michigan appreciate the benefits of a long healthy life. One of the most serious health concerns facing many Michiganders and Americans is the increasing incidence of Alzheimer’s Disease, a slow, progressive disorder of the brain that results in loss of memory and other cognitive functions, and eventually death; and

Whereas, Alzheimer’s Disease affects one in nine Americans age 65 and older; and

Whereas, November is National Alzheimer’s Disease Awareness Month and we support this observance which focuses attention on a critical health issue that affects approximately five million Americans and is the sixth leading cause of death in the United States; and

Whereas, More than 170,000 people in Michigan are living with Alzheimer’s in 2014 and that number is expected to increase to 220,000 by 2025; and

Whereas, The onset of Alzheimer’s Disease is generally later in life and, unfortunately, there are social stigmas and misconceptions associated with the disease as well as little information about its causes; and

Whereas, Recent advancements in scientific research have led to improvements in medical treatment for individuals with Alzheimer’s Disease and have demonstrated the benefits of early access to counseling and support services; and

Whereas, Alzheimer’s Disease will cost the United States an estimated $214 billion in 2014; and

Whereas, Alzheimer’s Disease takes a toll not only on those who are afflicted with it, but also on those who care for them and it is vital that researchers continue to seek a cure and that the general public be educated about the disease, the treatments available, and the programs that can assist those who suffer from Alzheimer’s disease and their families; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare November 2014 as Alzheimer’s Awareness Month in the state of Michigan. We urge all citizens to become better educated about the disease and its impact on patients and families.

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

The resolution was adopted.

The Speaker called Associate Speaker Pro Tempore O’Brien to the Chair.

Comments and Recommendations

Rep. Stamas moved that the following remarks be printed in the Journal.

The motion prevailed.

Rep. Cavanagh:

“I reflect on my time here and it started way back in 2004 when I was asked by the democratic leadership to run for state representative of District 17. I was a single dad and my daughters I was raising were 12 and 13 years old. I said I couldn’t because I needed to be home. At the time I was a Wayne County Commissioner so I stuck with that. That’s not a lot of work. Good pay though.

A guy by the name of Andy Dillon filed at 4:20 pm on the last day possible for State Rep of the 17th District and the rest is history. In 2010, he gave me some good advice. He asked me to run for this seat because he said that he had 109 other races to worry about and he didn’t want to worry about his predecessor.

But I’m reminded also once I got elected we went right into training and right now the new legislators are in the Mackinac Room doing training and a couple of things were said in training. One is if you ever walked into this building or looked at this room and were not in total awe then it was time for you to leave. I’m ready to leave but I am still in total awe of this room.

Also I was part of the largest incoming class ever. I think there were 65 of us 4 years ago. I got to know my colleagues and I got to know them as people -where they were from, and who their family members were. It wasn’t until the leadership vote that we broke up into two caucuses and went into the democratic room or the republican room. In a lot of ways the gloves were on from there on out.

A lot of things happened bipartisan, conversely and very partisan; and some bad legislation that I am not necessarily proud of or will boast about. There have been a lot of flaws that have been pointed out by previous speakers: term limits, lack of deliberation, and partisanship. But I would like to emphasize the work that has been done on a bipartisan basis which is 95% of what we do here.

In 2010 Michiganders have been screaming for results. Since then we’ve had four balanced budgets that have been put in place four months before the end of the fiscal year. I had school administrators say if we cut their budget, don’t do it September 30th, give them some notice. I was delighted to be part of a very important time of Michigan’s history. I was here for the passage of new and many talked about Acts such as Medical Marihuana, the Grand Bargain, school reform, reduction in bureaucracy of state government, minimum wage, Right-to-Work, Affordable Care Act, known by Mike Shirkey as Obama Care. I got to be at the forefront and discuss and work on a lot of these issues.

In my first term I was appointed to Tax Policy. I came here with the ambition of our whole tax structure needed revamping and with a new legislature and a new governor I thought we were going to roll up our sleeves and take on everything from Proposal A to the way we fund our schools and local government. We have made some gains. I ask the next legislators to look into how we fund local governments. I was honored to be on Energy and Tech with chair Ken Horn, thinking we were going to set new energy policies but under the Dillon administration they had done that. So one of Ken Horn’s first statements was ‘don’t think we are going to redo the entire energy policy’ so we took up little things.

I was also placed on Judiciary which was chaired by John Walsh in my first term. I have to give great kudos to John Walsh not just for the leadership he has shown in my first term and second, but the Grand Bargain. I remember a lot of issues that were taken up when the Republicans were driving the agenda. Medical Marihuana was in the newspapers, and the Media was screaming that we do something about Medical Marihuana, to define the constraints of the act. I said to John ‘If you ever want to get around to do anything with Medical Marihuana count me in.’ Well in June of 2011 he appointed Ken Horn and I to be co-chairs on the task force for Medical Marihuana. Never did I think in my first term I would be the ‘Pot Guy.’ But we took it very very seriously. There were eight bills that were introduced, and we decided to push 4 of them after deliberating throughout the state and having many public meetings. Ken Horn, the committee, and I agreed on four bills. The only problem is two of those passed before Right-to-Work was voted on and the other two which included my bill, which I think was the signature bill of the act, it came out of the House but wasn’t out of the Senate.

Democrats realized they need 2/3 and they don’t have the numbers over there so decided these were two bills they could show their influence. I see John shaking his head because he remembers the very last day of session. From 11pm to 3am, I was running back and forth to the Senate begging for a vote over there. It was finally voted out of the Senate at 3am. Many of us that were here were putting our coats on when it came back over to the House at 4:17 am. My bill was the last one voted out last session but it was by the bipartisan working it. John Walsh was working it and Ken Horn was working it. That was something to remember. I would like to thank Randy Richardville and the Senate leadership for actually getting that out.

I have to look back on my time here and really give respect and deference for the respect that I received from Republican Leadership. I’m not trying to kiss up but I heard about the nightmares of previous session. You never knew when committees were going to be on time, you never knew when session was going to be called. Things run around here like scheduled trains. I don’t always agree, many times I disagree on what’s happening here, but there is always certain deference and respect.

This term I was put on Financial Liability Reform and I need to thank Earl Poleski for the respect he has shown me. I was very honored to be with Gail Haines on Health Policy and some of the issues she attacked. To her credit, how she always stood up for was right, I often followed her. Judiciary this year, I served with Speaker-elect Kevin Cotter. Thank you for the deference. I didn’t always agree on what came up but again well respected.

I would like to give a shout out to our Speaker Jase Bolger because I think one of the most defining moments of my life will be my appointment on the Governor’s Commission on Mental Health and Wellness. Out of all the democrats he picked me and Matt Lori on the Republican side. I remember that first meeting on the Commission of Mental Health and Wellness, Senator Rebekah Warren said very bluntly to the Lt. Gov Brian Calley, there are only six of us on the committee, ‘I have two questions for you before we even get started. Is this some report that has already been written and this Commission is here to rubber stamp it’. He said absolutely not and she said ok. ‘Is this something we are going to work on and come up with a good report that we just put on a shelf.’ The Lt. Gov assured her it wasn’t the case. The report came out in February 2014. There were action items that needed to be done in the budget and appropriations were made. There was language that needed to be changed by executive order and there were bills that needed to be put through that were. I am very proud of that. Jim Haveman and Senator Bruce Caswell I wish well in their retirements. The Lt. Gov showed me a great example of doing what was right. He did not try to drive the agenda and he has been outspoken for mental health.

This session I would also like to thank Kurt Heise. Kurt came to me and said the attorney general is forming this committee, Human Trafficking Task Force, would you like to be on it. ‘I was like alright another publicity stunt’ and he said no, no we are going to get work done and we did. The Attorney General put together a stellar task force. Victims and people that deal with this issue every day. I’m very proud of the work there.

There was some legislation that I proposed that wasn’t taken up. Flip the ballot, husband has the option of taking a wife’s name. I’m throwing this out in case anyone wants to take these up next session. My stern belief is that if we made the MCCA transparent and shine the light of day on how they come up with their figures, it would actually lower auto insurance.

A special thank you to all: all my Democratic colleagues but especially my seat mates during my time here: Jim Ananich and Tim Melton for teaching me about education, to Marilyn Lane for educating me on roads issues, the great policy staff and everyone that works in the HOB and this building. I would like to thank my legislative staff, especially the two that got me started and helped me learn the ropes, Jack Schmidt and Amy Beard. They both have gone on to better jobs, and making an influence in this state. Katie Stearns who has gone on to be a law student at Wayne State and Nick and Celeste who are sorry to say still with me because they have to bear this out.

Ironically ten years after I made that decision that I needed to stay home, I’m going home. And whereas I did it because my girls needed me, now I need them. They are 23 and 24 now and don’t need daddy anymore.

I am very thankful for my service. I’m proud of what we have collectively accomplished and done for this state. Our residents were screaming to get something done and work as a cohesive body and 95% of the time we did. The last four years of representing my district in the State of Michigan has been the greatest honor ever. I just ask to continue the betterment of Michigan. I hope that we improve upon that philosophy and tackle issues not as Republican and Democrat but put the titles aside and work in a bipartisan manner. When we can’t work together it’s not ourselves who suffer, but the people of Michigan who truly agonize. I wish all the new and returning representatives the utmost of luck and thank you very much for this honor. I have truly enjoyed serving with you all, especially my Democratic Colleagues.”

Rep. Denby:

“Thank you Mr. Speaker for giving me a few minutes to speak.

My journey to the legislature started in 2002 while working on a campaign for my predecessor, the now Senator Joe Hune, who ended up winning his first primary by two votes. This made a great example for me to use when I talk to students about the importance of voting….. every vote actually does count. Once through with the drama and excitement of that close race, I ended up coming to Lansing to be a legislative aide for Joe and the 47th district. I recall talking to one of the senior members at that time who told me that I wouldn’t believe how fast six years would go. Six years….we all know what a long period six years can be.

Well, he was right and before you knew it I was making a decision on what I would encounter next….which lead me to the decision to run as a candidate for 47th district state representative to serve starting January 2009. Fortunately the election worked out…with a better margin than my predecessor’s 2 votes. But the fact still remains that 6 years in the legislature does go by very fast, and that is something we can probably all agree on. And I want to thank Joe Hune for encouraging me to make this move to Lansing.

Coming to the legislature after being a business owner and serving as a township official for 16 years was an eye opening experience.

There appeared to be a lobby group to represent just about every issue or interest. Any good policy issue would likely have opposition.

But the legislative process shouldn’t be and isn’t easy. Which is why dedicated office staff is so important. I want to thank Sue, Hannah and Troy for all their work for our constituents in the district.

I also want to thank the caucus support staff, LSB and House fiscal for their hours of assistance on policy issues.

I also have a special thank you for Alice Mansfield who not only arranges the coffee station in the back of the chamber but this past summer she included ice tea to the options which was a nice addition especially when the air conditioning wasn’t working.

And a special thank you to the sergeants…who always have our back. I recall one day while walking from the Roosevelt parking structure to the House Office Building, I tripped on a sidewalk that had started to lift on one edge. I made a graceful fall to my right which landed me in some wood chips. As you all know in those situations you quickly assess any damage and quickly hop up to an upward position as if nothing happened….and hoping there are no witnesses. As luck would have it, one of the sergeants was behind me on the sidewalk. I was fine, not even a scrape. But when I walked into the insurance committee meeting, Sergeant Dickson was waiting for me to check on my status; making sure everything was ok!!

And speaking of maneuvering around the legislative office system, I have come to determine the coldest location in Lansing during the winter. That would be the wind tunnel as you enter the north door of the house office building. (especially if you can’t immediately find your state I.D.).

I have enjoyed being part of the back row caucus this term sitting beside my Livingston County partner Bill Rogers.

And I still maintain that my office is on the best floor of the House Office Building…..that would be the 8th floor.

I want to thank Jim Stamas for keeping to the posted house schedule for the past four years….and I promise to not ask ‘when are we going to be finished’….I will leave that up to the rest of you.

Thank you to John Walsh for consistently being respectful and allowing members to speak on various issues…and your work on behalf of the largest city in our great state will be one for the history books.

I want to thank Clerk Gary Randall, Asst. Rich Brown and the clerk staff for always keeping us in step with the rules and maintaining records and house journals.

For those members that have served with me for six years, we took office at a depressed and economically challenged time. Through good policy from both sides of the aisle and responsible actions, today we can be proud of what has been accomplished on behalf of our state’s citizens. We will leave the state in a better position than when we started… and thank you to all members for your part in making that happen.

In closing, whether you will be serving another term starting in January or off to your next journey in life, I wish you all the best, where ever you may be heading. Thank you.”

Rep. Durhal:

“Honorable Mr. Speaker, Fellow Colleagues and Friends:

I stand here today with mixed emotions. I will try to give this farewell some prospective as I say goodbye to my colleagues and friends after a lifetime in the political arena and a short time in the legislature. This is not easy for me because public and government service has been such an essential portion of my life. As best I could, I tried to prepare myself for this eventuality knowing that I would not be comfortable saying so long to the people and the institution I care so much for. I knew when I took this job that this day would come due to term limits. And while I curse term limits and believe they should be abolished or at least modified, I would not be here today if it were not for them.

What a dichotomy.

You see, it took me twenty-five years and a successful federal lawsuit against a former Governor, to get elected here in 2002. Even then, I spent only a few very productive months in office before having to leave the place I longed to be in. At the time of that departure, I vowed to return. And, just like General Douglas McArthur, I did return. In 2008, the voters in my district overwhelmingly returned me to this House and did so for three consecutive terms. In so doing, I became the Dean of this House of Representatives, a title of honor bestowed upon the senior ranking member of this body.

I am one of the last members of either chamber who worked as a staff member and later as an elected representative. I’ve been in both the old and new systems as an employee and served in Majority and Minority status. I have served on many standing committees of this House and was appointed Chair, Vice-Chair and Minority Vice-Chair. Most of my time has been spent on the Appropriations Committee and its subcommittees. I have had the distinction of serving as staff Executive Director, Chair and Vice-Chair of the Michigan Legislative Black Caucus and as Secretary of the Detroit Legislative Caucus. On staff, I’ve served as Chief of Staff to the late Senator Arthur Cartwright and Legislative Assistant to the late Representative and Senator Jackie Vaughn, III. I’ve held positions on two of the three branches of government: Executive and Legislative, and I’ve served on city, county, state and federal divisions.

As a legislator, I am the proud author of several public acts and the co‑sponsor of many, many more. The two most significant public acts I’ve been a part of were historic: the Amber Alert Acts that help notify the community in the case of lost children and seniors and the recent ‘Grand Bargain Acts’ which helped to protect city worker pensions and help to resolve the history-making bankruptcy of the city of Detroit. I want to thank this legislature for coming together like never before to confront and overcome personal and regional biases and for rising beyond the petty politics we sometimes engage in and becoming the statesmen and stateswomen we were elected to be. I have never felt more proud of being a member of this House than I did the day we passed those bills. We stood and we gave ourselves a standing ovation-something that has seldom happened in the history of the legislature. It was, to quote Winston Churchill, ‘Our Finest Hour’. It is my fervent hope that you and your new colleagues will continue to cooperate and work in a by-partisan manner on the tough issues that the legislature confronts. Please seek to be mindful of your constitutional responsibility to be a separate and equal branch of government beholding not to the executive and judicial branches, but to the people who elected you.

I thank my family of which I am the eldest of twelve children and my own six children who have put up with the tremendous incursions and sacrifices that public life can have on a family; I thank my staff who has supported my legislative activities led by my best friend and Chief of Staff Gary Pollard, who will remain with my son to assist him; thanks to Josh Lyman, my current Legislative Assistant for his great work in such a short period. I would not have been successful without my highly professional and competent staff.

My thanks go to the House of Representative staffs both Democratic and Republican whom I have had the honor of working with, to House Clerks Gary Randall and Rich Brown, gentlemen of the highest order, and their staffs, particularly Darlene Moore, who has been a friend and advisor since my early staff and Rep. Days; thanks to the Legislative Service Bureau, House and Senate Fiscal Agencies, particularly Mary Ellen, Robin, Ben and Viola; thanks to our outstanding Sergeants at Arms, led by Chief David Dickson, the historic first African-American to hold this post, you have served us with the highest of professional standards and made me so proud; the Michigan State Police and its Executive Protection Unit always there for us. I also give special thanks to our interns on the floor who take special care of us.

Special thanks go to my classmates who are term-limited. We leave here knowing that we have endured. We are historic and we have done well. I thank the Speaker of the House, Rep. Jase Bolger and Majority Floor Leader Rep. Jim Stamas and Speaker Pro Tem Rep. John Walsh for being as accommodating and cooperative as best you could. We’ve had some interesting times. I thank my Democratic Leader Rep. Tim Greimel a friend and confidant whom I deeply respect. To my Floor Leader David Rutledge, what a good friend and advisor. To former Floor Leader Rudy Hobbs, who I think has a bright future. I thank my close associates Reps. Thomas Stallworth, Woodrow Stanley and my seatmate, Alberta Tinsley Talabi. You have been my friends for many years prior to coming to this legislature and will be lifelong amigos long after these days.

To my ‘backseat drivers’ in the row behind me, (Reps. Townsend, Phelps, Smiley and Brunner) thanks for keeping your foot in my ass (just kidding), and for always supporting me. To our Democratic Policy and Communications Staff, ‘been there, done that like you’ and enjoyed working with professionals for a change (lol). To my friends and members of this Honorable Body on both sides of the isle, know that we have seen many legislators come and go together, I think of deceased colleagues Clarence Phillips, Robert Jones, Mike Simpson, Herb Kehrl, Kate Ebli, Vera Rison, Judy Nerat and Gino Polidori, all of whom I served with and who passed away during my time here. I hope that my actions have honored their service. I will never forget you all.

Finally, the mixed emotions I feel are sadness at my departure from my dream job and career on the one hand, and tremendous joy and satisfaction knowing that my son Fred Durhal, III was elected to my seat to serve in the 98th Legislature in January, 2015. Every father wants to see his children succeed and have a good life. I’m so proud of him and thankful to the voters of the 5th District for granting my wish to see him elected. He will serve with legacy, dignity, honor and respect for this institution. Please welcome him with open arms and hearts. He will appreciate that. I now leave here with distinction, happiness and peace. I hope that history will be kind to me and that my years here will not be forgotten. I pray you all God’s very best and hope you continue to realize that out of 10 million Michiganders, you 110 people are privileged and very special. I’m proud to have served with you. The Dean is Done!

Mr. Speaker, I move that these remarks be published in today’s journal.”
