“Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord. He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream, and does not fear when heat comes, for its leaves remain green, and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit.”
God of each of us and God of all of us, we trust that You are present with us as we go about the important work for the people of this great state.
We pray we use the gifts, talents, and intelligence You have given us, to faithfully weigh courses of action and make good and sound decisions. Because we are human, Lord, be patient with us.
Help us to draw strength from what unites us instead of dwelling on what divides us.
May we always seek the greater good and the well-being of others through our words and actions.
Help us to witness to Your love by continuing to love our neighbors.
So, Father, it is with sincerity and humility that we pray for Your guidance in all decisions we make, knowing that all things will work out for good, according to Your perfect plan.
And, as always, may Your will be done here on earth. Amen.
The President pro tempore, Senator Schuitmaker, led the members of the Senate in recital of the Pledge of Allegiance.

Senator Knezek’s statement is as follows:
Colleagues, I just wanted to come to the podium briefly to call attention to the fact that House Bill No. 4651 is going to be Representative Plawecki’s first and only public act that she receives having served as a member of the Michigan House of Representatives.
This is a bill that was brought to her attention from our local American Legion in Garden City, Michigan. We are the birthplace of the American Legion Riders. They came to her with an issue they’ve been passionate about for years when it comes to motorcycle safety and this was an issue that Representative Plawecki took on with enthusiasm and with gusto and she pushed it through the House and its come over to the Senate.
I wanted to just personally take the opportunity to recognize the good Senator from the 24th District and thank him for his willingness to entertain this legislation and allow it to come up for a vote after the unfortunate circumstance of Representative Plawecki’s passing.
I would simply ask that you take the opportunity to think about a phenomenal way to recognize her service to this state and the sacrifice that she made for the state and the sacrifice that her family has made for the state by honoring her memory here today and offering up a “yes” vote in favor of House Bill No. 4651.

Protests
Senators Bieda, Hood and Young, under their constitutional right of protest (Art. 4, Sec. 18), protested against the passage of Senate Bill No. 1104.
Senator Bieda moved that the statement he made during the discussion of the bill be printed as his reasons for voting “no.”
The motion prevailed.
Senator Bieda’s statement, in which Senators Hood and Young concurred, is as follows:
Colleagues, I rise today to offer my “no” vote explanation for Senate Bill No. 1104.
Under current law, it’s already challenging for severely injured people to recoup damages that they need to recover. I’m concerned that this bill will only make that process more difficult.
When people are injured or killed because of medical negligence, they and their families deserve the opportunity to make their cases heard in court. Limiting the damages that can be recovered is fundamentally unjust, and could have the effect of making many of these very serious cases economically unviable. We must provide victims with the opportunity to make their cases heard in court and to get a fair share when it comes to awarded damages.
Colleagues, I’d like you to do the following: put yourself in the shoes of someone whose life has been irrevocably altered by no fault of their own. Think about how your life would change and what you’d need to accommodate those changes. If you’re like me, what you’d really want is justice.
I encourage all of you to vote no on this bill.
Senator Warren asked and was granted unanimous consent to make a statement and moved that the statement be printed in the Journal.
The motion prevailed.
Senator Warren’s statement is as follows:
I rise today to speak to my amendment on Senate Bill No. 1104.
Yesterday, my colleagues and I in the Michigan Competitiveness Committee heard testimony on this bill and listened to some concerns that were raised, and I, myself, expressed some concerns. Although I supported the bill at the time because I fully appreciate the question that this bill is attempting to address, and I recognize that in vacating its order of leave to appeal, the Michigan Supreme Court raised the question and put this before the Legislature as something that we should give our attention to.
However, colleagues, it’s critical that we ensure that injured citizens in our state can still access the court system and have a fair trial. To that end, my amendment introduces a number of minor changes that will address concerns that were raised in committee.
Under the bill as introduced, certain evidence is prohibited from being introduced at trial. My amendment would prohibit that same evidence from being introduced at post-verdict collateral source hearings. In addition, my amendment would stipulate that the bill only apply to medical malpractice cases that accrue after the bill takes effect and not be retroactive to cases that are already in the system.
I encourage all of you to vote yes and support fairness for victims of medical malpractice in our state.

Senator Ananich offered the following resolution:

A resolution to commemorate the month of November 2016 as Bladder Health Month.
Whereas, Millions of Americans are impacted by bladder diseases and conditions, including urinary tract infections, overactive bladder, underactive bladder, urinary incontinence, interstitial cystitis, nocturia, bladder cancer, urotrauma, and neurogenic bladder; and
Whereas, Bladder diseases and conditions have a negative effect on an individual’s health and quality of life, contributing to depression, anxiety, sexual dysfunction, social isolation, nursing home admissions, hospitalizations, decreased physical activity, and even death; and
Whereas, Bladder diseases and conditions result in costs estimated at over $70 billion annually; and
Whereas, Medical and behavioral research to better understand bladder health and treat bladder diseases is crucial yet not widely recognized; and
Whereas, Bladder problems are highly stigmatized, and open dialogue generated by designating a month this year as National Bladder Health Month can reduce stigma and empower providers and patients to have much-needed conversations about bladder health; and
Whereas, Industry professionals have strived to raise awareness by designating November as Bladder Health Month; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the Senate, That the members of this legislative body commemorate the month of November 2016 as Bladder Health Month in the state of Michigan. We encourage all Michigan’s citizens to participate in the aims and goals of this effort.
Pending the order that, under rule 3.204, the resolution be referred to the Committee on Government Operations,

A resolution to recognize November 30, 2016, as the Third Annual Michigan Auto Heritage Day.
Whereas, Michigan’s automotive heritage is preserved and promoted by the MotorCities National Heritage Area Partnership, an affiliate of the National Park Service; and
Whereas, National Heritage Areas are places where natural, cultural, historic, and scenic resources combine to form a cohesive, nationally important landscape arising from patterns of humanity; and
Whereas, The MotorCities National Heritage Area Partnership is Michigan’s only national heritage area, located throughout a region of more than 10,000 miles covering a population of more than 6 million people; and
Whereas, The MotorCities National Heritage Area is the largest concentration of auto-related sites, attractions and events in the world bringing millions of visitors and dollars into the state’s economy each year; and
Whereas, A study completed in 2015, showed that the MotorCities National Heritage Area generates $410.4 million in economic impact and supports $35.4 million in tax revenue; and
Whereas, The economic strength of our nation is connected integrally to the vitality of the automobile industry, which employs millions of workers; and
Whereas, The industrial and cultural heritage of the automobile industry in Michigan includes the social history and living cultural traditions of many generations; and
Whereas, The original legislation that created the MotorCities National Heritage Area in 1998 was championed by Congressman John Dingell and Senator Carl Levin, two of Michigan’s longest-serving public servants; and
Whereas, In 2016, the MotorCities National Heritage Area celebrated the National Park Service’s 100th anniversary through local and statewide programming; and
Whereas, The ‘Find Your Road Trip, Find Yourself’ tourism guide was very popular, with 20,000 copies being circulated throughout the National Heritage Area; and
Whereas, For the third consecutive year, Michigan Legislators will be invited to participate in the Automotive Caucus for members to exchange ideas and influence policy, including auto heritage; now, therefore be it
Resolved by the Senate, That the members of this legislative body recognize November 30, 2016, as the Third Annual Michigan Auto Heritage Day; and be it further
Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to the MotorCities National Heritage Area Partnership.

Statements
Senator Ananich asked and was granted unanimous consent to make a statement and moved that the statement be printed in the Journal.
Senator Ananich’s statement is as follows:
It’s a bit of an ironic occasion because normally when I’m here speaking, the person who I’m speaking about is actually writing my words, so it’s going to be very difficult because I’m speaking from the heart here.
For the past year, myself and the entire Democratic Caucus, both staff and every member on the floor here, has had the tremendous honor, and I mean that word on purpose, it’s been a true honor to have Jen Anderson as part of our team and part of our family, and one of the things about a family is no matter where you go, you’re still stuck with us. She may be leaving the Senate Democratic Caucus and taking a great opportunity to be the communications manager for the Michigan Primary Care Association, and when she told me about this opportunity, I said this to her, and I’ll repeat it today, the Michigan Primary Care Association’s gain is definitely going to be our loss.
But, she’s not going very far and she’ll be here—they’re opening an office downtown—and I think you’ll see a lot of great things coming out of the Michigan Primary Care Association in large part because of the great addition they’re going to be getting very soon.
If we could all please give her a round of applause. She’s done a tremendous job for myself and all the caucus this past year and she will be greatly missed. She’s a tremendous person and she’s been an amazing staff person, and I want to thank her.
