Rep. Dian Slavens, from the 21st District, offered the following invocation:

“Dear Lord,

We lift up to You the weak and the vulnerable.

We know that these are Your cherished ones, that You are a God Whose heart cries out for justice, that You are a God Who longs to feed the hungry. We ask simply, Lord, that You give us Your heart.

Fill us Lord with Your compassion, give us Your eyes to see, give us boldness and selflessness and wisdom, so that we too might cry out for justice and feed the hungry, so that Your light might shine throughout the earth.

Lord, we especially lift up the children among us who are weak and vulnerable, finding themselves in circumstances they did not choose and helpless to change. We lift up children suffering abuse and neglect, children smitten with malnutrition and disease, lacking education, housing or the most basic of life’s necessities.

Lord, You know every wretched tale. Every overwhelming statistic, You know personally, one by one. Lord, thank You that one day You will make all things right.

Until that day, give us the courage in doing what is good and what is right unto the least of these.

Amen.”

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

House Resolution No. 282.

A resolution to declare May 30, 2012, as Legacy Scholars Day in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, Increasing postsecondary access and attainment is vital in providing a healthy and sustainable workforce in the state of Michigan and the United States of America; and

Whereas, The state of Michigan and the United States of America have adopted the goal of increasing our nation’s postsecondary attainment levels to 60% by the year 2025; and

Whereas, Legacy Scholars was established in 2005 as part of the W.K. Kellogg Foundation’s celebration of its 75th anniversary, with the goal of creating a college-going culture where education after high school is an expectation and not a luxury; and

Whereas, Legacy Scholars is about making high school diplomas and college degrees a reality for students of Battle Creek Public Schools, Calhoun Community High School, and the Lakeview School District, with students receiving a scholarship to Kellogg Community College up to the equivalent of 62 credit hours, when they graduate from high school; and

Whereas, The first class of Legacy Scholars is graduating this year and has been working hard for over half a decade utilizing the tools the Legacy Scholars program provided, such as mentoring and college visits and support, realizing the Legacy Scholars mission that there really are “No Limits” in life when education and opportunity intersect; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the Michigan House of Representatives, that the members of this legislative body declare May 30, 2012, as Legacy Scholars Day in the state of Michigan; and be it further

Resolved, That the efforts of the Legacy Scholars Program and Scholarship, to enhance educational opportunities and expectations in Battle Creek and the entire state of Michigan, are truly commendable and set an outstanding example of academic achievement for all communities to follow.

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

The resolution was adopted.

Rep. Shirkey, 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:

There is a long list of reasons for a no vote on this bill. Not that I am opposed to ‘Made in America’, but this bill falls short on a number of fronts:

1. Why are state buildings different than any other venue displaying our precious flag?

2. Why are we passing a bill which is essentially an unfunded mandate?

3. What happens if there are no manufacturers in the US making flags?

4. What constitutes ‘made in America’?

5. What difference does the source of manufacture have on the meaning of our precious flag?

6. Where are our Legislator buttons and pins manufactured?

7. What about our flag poles? Ropes?

8. We cannot become protectionists, even on the smallest scale.

No one is more patriotic than I am. My American flag is precious to me, regardless of where it is made. It’s not the manufacturer that is important, it’s the symbol.”

Rep. Poleski, 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 would love for the State of Michigan to purchase flags made in the United States. I do hope and believe that there are manufacturers in the US that will provide an excellent product at the best price.

However, I believe that to compel the State to purchase a product manufactured in a particular place is to invite higher prices to be paid by our Michigan taxpayer. Moreover, this is another example of a well-meaning but overly regulatory bill that we apparently find it necessary to pass. I respectfully and very reluctantly decline to support it.”

By unanimous consent the House returned to the order of
