Rev. Burton Kincaid, Pastor of the First Free Methodist Church in Owosso, offered the following invocation:

"Heavenly Father, it is with joy that we come in the name of our Lord. As we stand together, we thank You for each one of these: for the opportunities, the responsibilities, and the privileges that we enjoy in our state, and also the opportunity to serve our state. So we just pray for each one here, right now. As we see the sunshine out today, we think about what the Psalms had said, 'This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it,' so we do just that. We ask that You give us strength for the work for this day. We realize that there is pressure, there is turmoil, there is frustration, and this group of people are put here to work for the good of our state. I know that there are different points of view, but along with this Lord, give the insight, give the direction, give the guidance and give the encouragement that each one might be able to do what is right. Lord, You have told us in Your word that if any of us lacked wisdom, we can ask of You and You will give it to us liberally, and that You do not get after us either. So give the wisdom today, and Lord, give the assurance that You can give in these days of unrest. Be in each one of the decisions, and be with each person here. In the name of Jesus, we pray. Amen."

Rep. Scott moved that Reps. Mans and Schermesser be excused from today's session.

Motions and Resolutions

Reps. Caul, Rivet, Sheltrown, Neumann, Frank, Hanley, Allen, Howell, Green and Stamas offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 187.

A resolution honoring Marvin Valentine upon the occasion of his retirement.

Whereas, With his retirement as Director of Camp Rotary, Mr. Valentine brings to a close an outstanding career of thirty years as a dedicated advocate and leader of young people. We salute him for his commitment to building and running one of the finest scout camps in the nation, Camp Rotary; and

Whereas, Mr. Valentine's contributions to Camp Rotary and the Lake Huron Council of Boy Scouts of America are immeasurable. He has touched the lives of more than 60,000 young people, instilling strong values and exhibiting the highest standards of citizenship. He sets a fine example of integrity and unselfishness for our children and young adults; and

Whereas, Mr. Valentine came to Camp Rotary in November 1969. With his wife, Justine, they dedicated years of hard work and sacrifice to make Camp Rotary the premier camping facility it is today. The camp is nestled among the tall white pines of northern Michigan, boasting a beautiful lake with abounding wildlife. The 1100 acre camp is a perfect setting of nature for the outdoor educational program Mr. Valentine initiated; and

Whereas, Camp Rotary is utilized year-round by scout troops and schools from all over the Midwest. They have hosted numerous football and band camps. Mr. Valentine's commitment to guiding and teaching these young people is to be commended. He is a true example of a man leaving his profession and all who came in contact with him are better for knowing and working with him; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body dedicate this document to honor Mr. Marvin Valentine upon his retirement from Camp Rotary. This document serves as a testimony of recognition for his unwavering service to young people. May he know of the high esteem in which he is held by the people of the State of Michigan; and be it further

Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to Mr. Marvin Valentine as evidence of our appreciation and gratitude.

Pending the reference of the resolution to a committee,

Rep. Raczkowski moved that Rule 77 be suspended and the resolution be considered at this time.

The motion prevailed, 3/5 of the members present voting therefor.

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

The resolution was adopted.

Reps. Tabor, DeHart, Kelly, Spade, Kukuk, Garcia, Kowall, DeVuyst, Cassis, Bishop, Mead, Faunce, Shulman, Woronchak, Thomas, LaForge, Jelinek, Birkholz, Vander Roest, Rocca, Ehardt, Van Woerkom, LaSata, Hager, Jamnick, Sheltrown, Lockwood, Scranton, Pappageorge, Schauer, Jacobs, Hale, Baird, Reeves, Lemmons, Julian, Toy, Koetje, Pumford, Vear, Richner, Green, Brater, Bogardus and DeRossett offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 188.

A resolution designating the second week of October as Carbon Monoxide Awareness Week in Michigan.

Whereas, Carbon monoxide (CO) is a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas often referred to as the 'silent killer' and is the leading cause of poisoning deaths in the United States; and

Whereas, Exposure to carbon monoxide can cause flu-like symptoms such as headaches, nausea, dizziness, fatigue, burning eyes, confusion, disorientation, drowsiness, and even loss of consciousness. When inhaled, carbon monoxide interferes with the body's ability to absorb oxygen, and in severe cases, can cause brain damage and death; and

Whereas, The best way to prevent death and illness through carbon monoxide poisoning is to ensure all appliances are well-serviced and maintained. It is also important to utilize carbon monoxide detectors as they can warn you of failures in fuel-burning appliances and other heat-producing sources; and

Whereas, Carbon monoxide detectors are credited with saving close to 3,500 lives from 1993 to present. When used properly in homes and businesses, carbon monoxide detectors can warn family members and employees of possible carbon monoxide poisoning and prevent serious illness and tragic death; and

Whereas, It is wise and necessary to build awareness and understanding of carbon monoxide poisoning hazards and appropriate precautions; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the second week of October be designated as Carbon Monoxide Awareness Week in Michigan.

Pending the reference of the resolution to a committee,

Rep. Raczkowski moved that Rule 77 be suspended and the resolution be considered at this time.

The motion prevailed, 3/5 of the members present voting therefor.

House Resolution No. 189.

A resolution honoring Michael and Marian Ilitch.

Whereas, Michael and Marian Ilitch opened Little Caesars Pizza Treat in 1959. This small business with a big idea, through cooperation and teamwork, has since become a $2 billion international company that has rocked both the pizza and sports worlds; and

Whereas, Being life-long sports fans, Michael and Marian took a leap of faith and bought the struggling Detroit Red Wings Hockey Club in 1982. Michael and Marian's dedication and commitment to this franchise lifted the Red Wings to be one of the most valuable teams in the National Hockey League and have skated to numerous playoff appearances and two consecutive Stanley Cup championships; and

Whereas, In addition to purchasing the Red Wings, Michael and Marian purchased the Olympia Entertainment, Inc., which manages Joe Louis and Cobo Arenas, further showing their commitment to revitalizing the city of Detroit; and

Whereas, In 1987, Michael and Marian acquired the deteriorating historical landmark Fox Theatre. Although many thought that the venture was destined to fail, the Fox Theatre reopened in November of 1988 and its success has made the Fox Theatre one of the top-grossing theatres of its size in the nation; and

Whereas, Michael and Marian's mutual love of America's national pastime resulted in their purchase of the Detroit Tigers baseball team in 1992. This year, fans everywhere mourned the loss of the oldest home to pro-baseball, while celebrating the birth of Comerica Park, new home of the Detroit Tigers beginning in the 2000 season; and

Whereas, Michael and Marian, life-long residents of the Detroit area, have dreamt of making Detroit a first class city. Their business ventures and personal philanthropy have been devoted to making Detroit the come back kid of the 20th century. Mike and Marian, despite obstacles and objections, have enthusiastically rebuilt the city of Detroit. Clearly, their talents and vision have exerted a strong, positive impact on Detroit and the entire State of Michigan as well; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we offer this expression of our admiration and respect for Michael and Marian Ilitch; and be it further

Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to Mr. and Mrs. Ilitch as evidence of our high esteem and gratitude for their efforts.

A resolution honoring Harry L. Simpson.

Whereas, Harry L. Simpson is the Executive Director of Detroit's Community Health Awareness Group (CHAG), Michigan's largest minority operated community-based HIV/AIDS organization. Mr. Simpson is nationally recognized for his work with African-American IV drug users. He is also the founder of Life Points Harm Reduction Outreach Program, which was the first licensed syringe exchange program in the State of Michigan. Mr. Simpson is a consultant to the Michigan Task Force on the Survival of the African American Male and the Community Co-Chair of the Statewide Community Prevention Planning Group; and

Whereas, Harry L. Simpson has received the 1996 CDC Price Fellowship for HIV Prevention Leadership, the Spirit of Detroit in 1997, and the 1998 AIDS Consortium of Southeastern Michigan's Community Service Award. He was recently awarded a National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence Greater Detroit Area "Recovery is Possible" award, which is designed to recognize individuals in recovery who embody the true meaning of recovery and have chosen to help others find their way out of the maze of addiction. Mr. Simpson received the City of Detroit highest award in October 1998, a Detroit City Council Testimonial Resolution, for his work in combating substance abuse and HIV/AIDS. In 1999, Mr. Simpson received the Leadership in HIV Prevention award from the Michigan Statewide Community Planning Group in recognition of his dedication to improving the quality and responsiveness of HIV prevention efforts in Michigan; and

Whereas, Harry L. Simpson has served as an expert consultant to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Service Administration and the CDC Foundation. Mr. Simpson has given testimony before the Congressional Black Caucus, the CBC Health Braintrust and the Presidential Advisory Council on HIV/AIDS on the role of needle exchange programs in preventing HIV among African-American drug injectors; and

Whereas, Harry L. Simpson has been recognized by the CDC for their Taking it to the Street program. It was selected as one of the nine 1999 Characteristics of Reputationally Strong Programs. Taking it to the Streets is a program that involves collaboration between CHAG and other Detroit service agencies to allow prevention education, behavioral interventions and all of the necessary prevention tools to get to those individuals who need it most; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of the legislative body join in honoring Harry L. Simpson for his involvement in the development of HIV programs for the African American population; and be it further

Rep. Gosselin offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 191.

A resolution honoring Marye Miller.

Whereas, It is with great admiration that we honor Marye Miller upon receipt of the Blue Cross Blue Shield 1999 Claude S. Pepper Award for service to senior citizens. Ms. Miller has been the director of the Older Person's Commission in Rochester for over 26 years. Her dedication has created excellence in a public place that is of great importance to the senior citizens in the greater Rochester community--the Older Person's Commission; and

Whereas, Due to Ms. Miller's commitment to establishing a welcoming atmosphere and efficient service, the Older Person's Commission has grown dramatically. In 1974, 250 seniors participated in the Older Person's Commission. Today, the center serves over 7,000 seniors through their numerous and varied programs and services; and

Whereas, Ms. Miller spends time listening to the seniors visiting the Older Person's Commission. Her love for the older persons of our community shows in everything she does, and she never plans a program or activity without their input; and

Whereas, Important to Ms. Miller is the preservation of independence for senior citizens. She coordinated the receipt of a community grant enabling seniors to receive snow removal and lawn maintenance, helping them to remain in their homes. She maintains a Mini Bus program, serving all citizens 60 years and older, seven days a week, and a Meals on Wheels program, serving hot lunch and cold dinner. In conjunction with Meals on Wheels, Ms. Miller designed a Nutrition Risk Program, which received President George Bush's Points of Light Award for assessing the nutritional needs of frail seniors; and

Whereas, The Older Person's Commission is a bustling center with active seniors that make one doubt their true age. Activities range from woodcarving, aerobics, silver smithing, and computer Internet classes, to card games and line dancing. Doctors, lawyers, political candidates, and Y2K awareness speakers are just a few of the featured programs in a typical month. There is a trip planned for most weekends, such as to Detroit Symphony Orchestra concerts, bus tours of Fall Colors (complete with a trip to the cider mill), and even a trip to New York City for Christmas shopping; and

Whereas, Ms. Miller's commitment is also demonstrated by her active participation in many senior organizations at the local, state, and national levels; and

Whereas, With a visionary leader like Ms. Miller, it is likely the Older Person's Commission will continue to expand in programs and services. She consistently looks toward the future, setting goals with the staff and senior citizens. Ms. Miller recently held a seminar with community leaders regarding a ten-year plan for the Older Person's Commission; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we commend Ms. Marye Miller for her service to senior citizens in the greater Rochester area and applaud her upon receiving the Blue Cross Blue Shield Claude S. Pepper Award; and be it further

Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to Ms. Miller as evidence of our esteem.

Pending the reference of the resolution to a committee,

Rep. Raczkowski moved that Rule 77 be suspended and the resolution be considered at this time.

The motion prevailed, 3/5 of the members present voting therefor.
