Pastor Bill Beck, Pastor of Locust Grove Mennonite Church in Burr Oak, offered the following invocation:

“Our Father and our God, I thank You for this new day. Thank You for Your grace, mercy and love that You give to us in abundance. Father, we invite Your presence here in this chamber. Dwell in the midst of these men and women who are gathered here to govern this great state. Grant them wisdom. Grant them the ability to hear one another. I pray that You would give each of them the heart of a servant as they serve the residents of Michigan.

Father, we are so very blessed in this state. We are surrounded by beautiful wonders of nature – from the dunes of Lake Michigan to the falls of the Upper Peninsula. But even more beautiful are the people – from Detroit to Marquette – who have been made in Your image. Through the work of these legislators may You bless this state and its residents.

Father, I ask that You bless each of these Representatives, their families and their staffs. Direct their steps and keep them safe as they travel back and forth between Lansing and home.

Father, we ask these things in the name of Your Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.”

Motions and Resolutions

Reps. Darany, Canfield, Crawford, Howrylak, Kelly and LaVoy offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 263.

A resolution to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the creation of the National Park Service.

Whereas, The National Park Service was created on August 25, 1916, by Congress through the National Park Service Organic Act. The National Park Service (NPS) is an agency of the United States Department of the Interior. The role of the NPS is preserving the ecological and historical integrity of the places entrusted to its management while also making them available and accessible for public use and enjoyment; and

Whereas, Yellowstone National Park was named the first national park in the United States in 1872. Originally each national park was run under the auspices of the Department of the Interior. Determined to improve the current model of operations and management of the parks, conservationist Stephen Mather encouraged Congress to create an independent agency to manage the parks; and

Whereas, On August 25, 1916, the National Park Service Organic Act was ratified and signed by President Woodrow Wilson with the mandate that the agency “conserve the scenery and the natural and historic objects and wildlife therein, and to provide for the enjoyment of the same in such a manner and by means as will leave them unimpaired for the enjoyment of future generations.” Upon the creation of the National Park Service, Stephen Mather was named its first director; and

Whereas, On March 3, 1933, President Herbert Hoover signed the Reorganization Act of 1933 into law, allowing the President to reorganize the executive branch of the United States government. President Franklin D. Roosevelt used the power granted to him by this bill to issue two executive orders at Deputy Director Horace M. Albright’s suggestion. These executive orders transferred all of the historic sites managed by the War Department, the national monuments managed by the Department of Agriculture, and the parks in and around the capital to the National Park Service; and

Whereas, In 1966, as the Park Service celebrated its 50th anniversary, the goal of the program shifted to do more than just preserve the nation’s beautiful land and scenery, but to also increase the accessibility of these historic areas to the public. Director George Hartzog began this process with the inclusion of the National Lakeshores and the National Recreation Areas into the National Park Service. As a result of this, the Pictured Rocks of Munising, Grand Marais, and the Sleeping Bear Dunes in Empire were able to be recognized as National Parks; and

Whereas, Michigan is home to 5 national parks, with over 1,900,000 visitors a year. These parks include Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore and Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore as listed above, as well as River Raisin National Battlefield Park, Isle Royale National Park, and Keweenaw National Historical Park. Home to such scenery as wildlife, waterfalls, forests, sand dunes, beaches, inland lakes, and islands, the Michigan National Parks are an essential quality of this great state; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body commemorate the 100th anniversary of the creation of the National Park Service.

The resolution was referred to the Committee on Tourism and Outdoor Recreation.

PROCLAMATION

REQUEST FOR EXTENSION OF DECLARATION OF EMERGENCY

WHEREAS, on April 25, 2014, the water source in the City of Flint, Michigan, was switched from the Detroit water system to the Flint River. The switch to the new water source resulted in impacts to Flint’s water system, particularly in areas with lead service lines or lead plumbing and fixtures in private residences. In these areas, lead leached into the water potentially exposing residents to negative health impacts; and

WHEREAS, from October 1, 2015, to this date, the County of Genesee, City of Flint, the State of Michigan, and the Federal Emergency Management Agency have taken numerous actions to cope with the situation, including but not limited to, switching back to the Detroit water system on October 16th, declaring states of emergency, activating the emergency response and recovery aspects of their emergency operations plans, marshaling and distributing required resources on a city-wide level, and issuing emergency public information and bulletins; and

WHEREAS, it is in the best interest of the state of Michigan to continue to provide resources within the city, and take appropriate measures in response to the public health emergency, to ensure that resources remain sufficient to protect public health, safety and property, and to lessen or avert the threat of more severe and long lasting impacts to the community;

NOW, THEREFORE, I RICHARD D. SNYDER, Governor of the state of Michigan, pursuant to the Constitution of the state of Michigan and the provisions of Act No. 390 of the Public Acts of 1976, as amended, do hereby request the legislature extend the state of emergency proclaimed on January 5, 2016, and previously extended through April 14, 2016, for an additional 122 days, through August 14, 2016, in the County of Genesee and the City of Flint. This additional 122-day extension coincides with the extension of the Presidential Emergency Declaration through August 14, 2016.

Explanation of “No” Votes

Rep. McBroom, having reserved the right to explain his nay vote pertaining to House Bill No. 4822, made the following statement:

“Mr. Speaker and members of the House:

I opposed concurrence today because I believe this bill remains fundamentally flawed the same way the versions originally introduced and passed by the house were: a one-size-fits-all approach to a problem that is too complex for such over-simplified, ineffective, and ultimately doomed-to-fail, state government solutions. I have repeatedly stated my support for doing something about the literacy crisis in this state. We must respond aggressively to any school that immorally graduates illiterate students. Whether that action uses mandatory retention or not is immaterial to me. The fundamental flaw is that all of the processes created in this bill are placed on schools that do not have the primary literacy problem I referred to above- children who can not read upon graduation- or on schools with the secondary, but more often mentioned expression of the literacy crisis, children who are not at a third grade reading level upon entry to the fourth grade.

I would have been satisfied to see an aggressive, rigorous process put in place to see whether these state mandates should be implemented in an individual school. This could have been based on preformance results at several different years of school along with clear standards for a mandatory, locally facilitated and run intervention program. These ideas are common sense, local control, local empowering and incentivizing. I remain dissapointed at the continued drive to place new mandates on schools across this state who we were told repeatedly but the bills accolytes would only have one or two students even effected! I can assure you that schools like were not sitting on the hands letting even that one student slip through the cracks but are working hard to intervene in that student’s development. These new reporting requirements alone are a new, unnecessary burden on good schools. Until this bill has this fundamental flaw rooted out I will continue to oppose any passage of the legislation. Thank you Mr. Speaker.”
