Rev. Dr. Marvin T. Smith, Pastor of Mt. Olive Institutional Missionary Baptist Church in Saginaw, offered the following invocation:
“Creator of Life, Your children are gathered in this place to encounter You anew. Even here, our souls thirst for a life-affirming experience. Transform these four walls into a place of radical encounter. We need Your presence to flood this place in unexpected ways.
Surprise us with the release of Your glory to the end that people will be saved, minds will be opened, faith will be increased, bodies will be healed, families will be restored, and love will be the order of the day.
Because You are omnipresent, there is no need for us to invite You here. You inhabit every moment of our lives. Stir us up for Your glory and our good. In the name of Jesus, the Christ, Amen.”

House Resolution No. 308.
A resolution to commemorate the state of Israel’s 70th anniversary.
Whereas, On November 29, 1947, the United Nations General Assembly voted to partition British Mandatory Palestine into a Jewish state and Arab state, a decision welcomed by Jewish leadership and rejected by the Arab world; and
Whereas, On May 14, 1948, the people of Israel proclaimed the establishment of the sovereign and independent state of Israel, and the United States government established full diplomatic relations after Israel’s first election in 1949; and
Whereas, The desire of the Jewish people to establish an independent modern state of Israel is directly linked to the existence of the historic kingdom of Israel established in the land of Israel 3,000 years ago, with the city of Jerusalem as its capital both then and now; and
Whereas, For over 2,000 years Jews living in other parts of the world maintained a profound spiritual and emotional connection to the Land of Israel, and there has been continuous Jewish presence in the land comprising the modern state of Israel; and
Whereas, The establishment of the modern state of Israel as a homeland for the Jewish people followed the destruction of much of European Jewry during the Holocaust; and
Whereas, Since its establishment 70 years ago, the modern State of Israel has rebuilt the nation, forged a new and dynamic society, and created a thriving economic, political, cultural, and intellectual life despite the heavy burdens of war, terrorism, and unjustified diplomatic and economic boycotts against the people of Israel; and
Whereas, The people of Israel, in the spirit of Israel’s Declaration of Independence, have established a vibrant, pluralistic, democratic political system, which includes freedom of speech, association, and religion; a vigorously free press; free, fair and open elections; the rule of law; a fully independent judiciary; and other democratic principles and practices; and
Whereas, Israel has developed some of the world’s leading universities; and
Whereas, Israel has developed an advanced, entrepreneurial economy, is among the world’s leaders of the high-tech industry, and is at the forefront of research and development in the fields of renewable energy sources and medicine; and
Whereas, Israel regularly sends humanitarian aid, search and rescue teams, mobile hospitals, and other emergency supplies, to help victims of disasters around the world; and
Whereas, Israel has taken in millions of Jews from countries throughout the world and sought to fully integrate them into Israeli society; and
Whereas, Israel, with courage and high ethical standards, has defended itself from repeated attacks since its independence, including by terrorist adversaries such as Hamas and Hezbollah that violate international law by using civilians as human shields; and
Whereas, Israel has established peaceful bilateral relations with Egypt and Jordan and has sought to achieve a secure peace with the Palestinians and Israel’s other Arab neighbors; and
Whereas, For seven decades, the United States and Israel have maintained a special relationship based on mutually shared democratic and moral values, common strategic interests, and bonds of friendship and mutual respect; and
Whereas, In January 2017, Michigan became the 16th state to enact laws condemning and outlawing discrimination against Israel and Israelis, and
Whereas, Michigan organizations have made efforts to strengthen business ties between Michigan’s automotive and defense industries and Israel’s innovation and technical expertise; and
Whereas, Programs have consistently sought to bring members of the Michigan Jewish community to Israel, as well as Israelis to Michigan, in order to create new relationships and strengthen Jewish identity; and
Whereas, Michigan universities, such as the University of Michigan, have partnered with those in Israel, including Ben Gurion University in the Negev and Technion Institute of Technology, to support and foster research, innovation and collaboration; and
Whereas, The American people and people of Michigan feel a strong affinity for the Israeli people based on common values and shared cultural heritage; and
Whereas, The United States and Michigan continue to regard Israel as a trusted ally and vital strategic partner in the volatile Middle East; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body commemorate the state of Israel’s 70th anniversary. We recognize the historic significance of the reestablishment of the sovereign and independent state of Israel as a homeland for the Jewish people; reaffirm the bonds of friendship and cooperation which have existed between the United States, Michigan and Israel for the past 70 years, and commits to strengthening those bonds; commend the people of Israel for their remarkable achievements in building a new state and a pluralistic, democratic society in the face of terrorism, as well as hostility, ostracism, and belligerence from many of their neighbors; reaffirm support for Israel’s right to defend itself against threats to its security and existence; reaffirm enduring hope for Israel as Israel pursues peace with its neighbors; and extend the warmest congratulations and best wishes to the state of Israel and Israeli people for a peaceful and prosperous future.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.
Reps. Farrington, Allor, Crawford, Ellison, Gay-Dagnogo, Geiss, Green, Greig, Howrylak, Kelly, Lauwers, Liberati, Love, Maturen, Singh and Theis offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 309.
A resolution to declare April 21-28, 2018, as Money Smart Week in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, The Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago coordinates Money Smart Week, a nationwide annual public awareness and educational campaign that takes place April 21-28, 2018; and
Whereas, Money Smart Week is designed to help consumers better manage their personal finances through educational programming offered to all demographics and levels of knowledge and income and covers all facets of personal finance; and
Whereas, Michigan has participated in Money Smart Week for sixteen years through the collaboration and coordinated effort of hundreds of organizations including financial institutions, non-profit groups, government entities, schools, and libraries. The week showcases these organizations’ educational resources, strengthens private-public partnerships, engages the media, and connects people with those who can help them learn how to better manage their money; and
Whereas, Personal financial education and money management skills are crucial to enable Michigan residents to manage credit and debt and be responsible workers, heads of households, homeowners, investors, entrepreneurs, business leaders, and productive citizens; and
Whereas, In 2017, the Michigan Money Smart Week campaign conducted over 600 events and supported tens of thousands of participants of all ages with money management education in counties throughout the state; and
Whereas, Money Smart Week highlights the commitment of financial institutions and their partners throughout the state to strengthen the financial knowledge and capability of people through financial education; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare April 21-28, 2018, as Money Smart Week in the state of Michigan. We acknowledge the significant contributions of Money Smart Week in our state; and be it further
Resolved, That we call on each resident, business, community organization, and unit of government to observe this week with participation in Money Smart Week programs and activities.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.
Reps. VerHeulen, Allor, Brinks, Cochran, Crawford, Ellison, Gay-Dagnogo, Green, Greig, Howrylak, Kelly, Leutheuser, Liberati, Maturen, Singh and Sneller offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 310.
A resolution to declare April 19, 2018, as Dutch-American Friendship Day in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, On April 19, 1782, 236 years ago, in the city of the Hague, the ambassadorial credentials of John Adams were officially recognized by Prince William V. of Orange and the States-General, thus establishing formal diplomatic ties between the new government of the United States and the Republic of the Netherlands; and
Whereas, The historical ties between the Dutch and American people go back nearly 200 years earlier to the period when the Pilgrims resided for almost 11 years in the Netherlands before sailing to the new world; and
Whereas, The diplomatic ties between the governments of the United States and the Netherlands are the longest continuous ties between the United States and any country of the world; and
Whereas, The Dutch contribution to the American melting pot has played such a significant role in the life of America as exemplified by Presidents Martin Van Buren, Theodore Roosevelt, and Franklin Delano Roosevelt; and
Whereas, The bonds of friendship linking the Dutch and American people continue to grow in strength and affection; and
Whereas, The heritage of this friendship between these people serves as an admirable example for the kinds of relations that should link all the peoples of the earth and should be properly extolled; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare April 19, 2018, as Dutch-American Friendship Day in the state of Michigan.. We commemorate the historic ties between the United States and the Netherlands.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.
Reps. Hughes, Brann, LaFave, Leutheuser, Victory, Bizon, Howrylak, Allor, Cochran, Crawford, Elder, Kelly and Liberati offered the following concurrent resolution:
House Concurrent Resolution No. 22.
A concurrent resolution to oppose the Michigan State Waterways Commission recommendation that legislation be introduced to require the registration with a fee of all rigid-hulled kayaks, canoes, and paddleboards eight feet or longer.
Whereas, Paddle sports are one of the fastest-growing outdoor activities in the nation. Many Michigan residents and visitors from other states enjoy a leisurely paddle on the waters of this state and in doing so, contribute more than $140 million to Michigan’s economy; and
Whereas, The Michigan State Waterways Commission recently passed Resolution 02-2018-01 recommending that registration fees be implemented for all rigid-hulled kayaks and canoes as well as paddleboards eight feet or longer. Under current law, these vessels are exempt from fees and registration in Michigan; and
Whereas, Most paddlers will receive minimal benefit from the registration fees, especially the many boaters who exclusively paddle inland waterways and rivers. Although some rustic and unimproved access sites exist along Michigan’s waterways and rivers, most funding for access sites go to state boat launches designed for powerboats and trailers. These sites are not necessarily safe or easy for paddlers to use. Paddlers who do choose to launch from state sites must purchase a recreation passport which supports the maintenance and operation of these sites. Registration fees also fund sheriff patrols on Michigan’s inland lakes. Although safer inland lakes are beneficial to paddlers, increased safety patrols will provide little benefit for paddlers traversing rivers and scenic waterways; and
Whereas, As more Michigan residents discover the excitement and adventure of paddling on Michigan waterways, a registration fee on these vessels would only curtail the growth of a sport that provides great benefits to our state. A family sport, paddling allows residents who are unable to participate in powerboating to access our boundless water resources. A registration fee would only place a burden on our residents while adversely impacting the economic benefits that paddle sports bring to Michigan; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), That we oppose the Michigan State Waterways Commission recommendation that legislation be introduced to require the registration with a fee of all rigid-hulled kayaks, canoes, and paddleboards eight feet or longer; and be it further
Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the members of the Michigan State Waterways Commission.
The concurrent resolution was referred to the Committee on Tourism and Outdoor Recreation.
Reps. Glenn, Allor and Kelly offered the following concurrent resolution:
House Concurrent Resolution No. 23.
A concurrent resolution to urge the Congress and President of the United States to take certain actions to counter manipulation of the oil market by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries.
Whereas, Michigan’s automotive industry plays a major role in the state’s economy, employing nearly 975,000 people; and
Whereas, The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) has deliberately and routinely influenced the price of oil by manipulating global supply. This cartel’s manipulation most recently took place in 2014 when OPEC responded to growing U.S. shale production by maintaining high petroleum production despite falling oil prices; and
Whereas, OPEC’s market management efforts and price fixing strategy create long-term uncertainty for employment in Michigan’s automotive sector. These efforts influence consumer automobile preferences and undermine investment in U.S. industries, including automobile manufacturing; and
Whereas, A bill is pending in Congress, H.R. 545, that would create the United States Commission on the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries to investigate and address any practices on the part of OPEC that prevent or reduce competition in the global oil market; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), That we urge Congress to pass and the President to sign legislation that would establish a commission to investigate and address any practices on the part of OPEC that prevent or reduce competition in the global oil market; and be it further
Resolved, That we urge the President, if Congress does not pass relevant legislation, to take executive action to establish and appoint a one-year commission of experts to investigate OPEC and make recommendations to counter market manipulation and price volatility caused by this cartel, and to help protect our energy and national security; and be it further
Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the President of the United States, the President of the United States Senate, the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, and the members of the Michigan congressional delegation.
The concurrent resolution was referred to the Committee on Energy Policy.
