Father Jack Baker, Priest of Saint Mary's Catholic Church in Wayne, offered the following invocation,

"We ask God's blessing as we gather here this day. Good and gracious God, You have called us here. You have called us to serve You; to serve our family and friends; to serve our country and our state; to serve Your people. As Your servants, we are called to bring You honor and glory and build our greatness in You. Help us to serve those who do not have a voice--those who are less fortunate, those who are poor and those who are the outcast. Help us to serve those that we may have differences with knowing that they too are created in Your likeness. Help us to do all that we do so that we may build Your kingdom here on earth and one day share in Your kingdom of Heaven. We ask this prayer as we gather here this day, in Your most holy and precious name, Amen."

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

Motions and Resolutions

Reps. Scranton, Raczkowski, Julian, Clarke, Birkholz and Cassis offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 403.

A resolution to memorialize the Congress of the United States to change the observance of Independence Day to the first Monday in July.

Whereas, Observances of significant dates as holidays serve several worthwhile purposes. Holidays help citizens remember milestones in our nation's history and recall individuals and events that have helped shape our nation. This is more difficult to achieve when these dates fall in the middle of the week. With the busy schedules of modern living, holidays that are observed as part of a weekend increase awareness of the occasion; and

Whereas, The observance of many holidays has been shifted to be adjacent to a weekend. This has proved to be highly successful. It is far easier to coordinate special events over a long weekend than over a single day that is only a brief interruption to the work week. There is probably a greater awareness of certain days because they are part of a three-day observance; and

Whereas, Holiday weekends encourage families to get together. With the importance of families to our national character, it would be fitting for our national observation of Independence Day to be changed to the first Monday in July. This would permit more extended celebrations and special events and foster values that are of great importance to our shared future; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we memorialize the Congress of the United States to change the observance of Independence Day to the first Monday in July; and be it further

Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to 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 resolution was referred to the Committee on House Oversight and Operations.

Reps. Jamnick, Spade, Hansen, DeHart, LaForge, Bogardus, Schauer, Kelly, Sheltrown, Minore, Cherry, Vaughn, Scott, Brater, Schermesser, Rivet, Martinez, Garza, Gieleghem, Switalski, Jacobs, Dennis, Prusi, Thomas, Quarles, Ehardt, Hale, Garcia, Lockwood, Clarke, Howell, Bovin, DeRossett, Birkholz, Vear and Hanley offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 404.

A resolution honoring Dr. David P. Weikart.

Whereas, Dr. David P. Weikart, Founder and President of High/Scope Educational Research Foundation, is retiring after forty years of developing, implementing, and assessing innovative ways to improve the lives of children and families throughout Michigan, the United States, and worldwide; and

Whereas, Dr. Weikart founded High/Scope Educational Research Foundation in 1970 in Ypsilanti, Michigan, to provide effective active learning educational practice, conduct relevant research and assessment, publish materials for educators and parents, and train teachers; and

Whereas, Through his public testimony and through careful research and implementation of the High/Scope curriculum, Dr. Weikart has assured that high-quality active learning education receives support from all levels of government and the private sector in the United States and in other countries; and

Whereas, By instituting local, state, and national professional development programs and by establishing High/Scope International Institutes in other countries, Dr. Weikart has been a major force in training educators worldwide to establish effective active learning educational settings; and

Whereas, Through lifelong dedication and public advocacy, as acknowledged by colleagues and peers, Dr. Weikart has had a long-lasting, positive impact on educational policy and practice throughout the world; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the highest praise and admiration be accorded to Dr. David P. Weikart; and be it further

Resolved, That a copy of this resolution is transmitted to Dr. David P. Weikart as evidence of our deep appreciation of his service to children and families throughout the world.

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.

House Resolution No. 405.

A resolution to salute the works of Actor, Jeff Daniels.

Whereas, Jeff Daniels has been a professional stage and film actor for twenty-two years. Raised in Michigan, he attended Central Michigan University, majoring in English and minoring theatre. In 1976, he left Central Michigan University, and joined the Circle Repertory Company in New York; and

Whereas, After many successful stage plays, Jeff Daniels won widespread recognition for his work in the New York production of Lanford Wilson's Fifth of July. He went on to television and feature film to star in such works as Fifth of July, The Caine Mutiny Court Martial, The Crossing, Ragtime, Terms of Endearment, and The Purple Rose of Cairo. Upon starring in The Purple Rose of Cairo, he named his theatre company after the film. Other film credits include: Radio Days, The Butcher's Wife, Arachnaphobia, Gettysburg, Speed, Dumb and Dumber, 2 Days in the Valley, 101 Dalmations, Pleasantville, and Chasing Sleep; and

Whereas, In 1991, Jeff Daniels established The Purple Rose Theatre Company, a 300 seat, not-for-profit professional theatre located in Chelsea, Michigan featuring Midwestern actors, directors, playwrights, and designers; and

Whereas, The Purple Rose recently shared the American Critic Association's 1998 Best New American Play with Lanford Wilson for his play Book of Days. Mr. Daniels has written several plays for The Purple Rose: Shoe Man, The Tropical Pickle, The Vast Difference, Thy Kingdom's Coming, Doom Town, and Across the Way; and

Whereas, To date, Jeff Daniels most popular play is Escanaba in Da Moonlight. A wild comedy set in an Upper Peninsula deer camp. An independent film of his screenplay Escanaba in Da Moonlight was shot in Michigan and is set to debut in the coming months; and

Whereas, At this time, The Purple Rose Theatre is upon completion of a year-long renovation project to increase square footage and audience seating capacity by 10%, provide additional space for rehearsals, set construction, storage space for props and sets, and enlarge dressing rooms and meeting rooms. The theatre was recently awarded a $100,000 Arts & Quality of Life Grant from the state of Michigan; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we join with Members, family and friends in saluting Jeff Daniels' commitment to Michigan and sharing his passion of the stage to thousands of people; and be it further

Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to The Purple Rose Theatre as evidence of our esteem and admiration.

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. 406.

A resolution honoring the "Rescuers", Adam Cantu, Casey Elliston, Colleen Jones, Tu Nguyen, and teacher/coach Andon B. Pogoncheff of Pattengill Middle School in Lansing, Michigan.

Whereas, It is an honor and privilege to commend the Pattengill Middle School students, Adam Cantu, Casey Elliston, Colleen Jones, Tu Nguyen, and their teacher/coach Andon B. Pogoncheff for their "Rescuer" classroom project which has developed into a community problem-solving program. The "Rescuer" itself is an audio-visual signaling device which can be used to locate a person in times of emergency. The device turns a porch light on which can be seen as far away as the line of sight, as well as emitting a pulsating buzzer signal which can be heard from a quarter of a mile away. It is useful for 911 emergencies and for times when a person needs help from neighbors; and

Whereas, The "Rescuers" were finalists in the Bayer/National Science Foundation Award for Community Innovation. They were chosen from nearly 500 teams across the nation, and represented region 4, which included Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Dakota, and South Dakota at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida. These students tied for fourth in the nation; and

Whereas, The "Rescuer" project has received national attention and the students plan to have 100 devices installed in the Lansing area. They are doing so in partnership with the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, Local 665, the City of Lansing, Ideal Industries, Northern Graphics, Superior Electric Company, Standard Electric Company, Lansing Community Pharmacy, Sparrow Health System, and, the law firm of Fraser Tribilcock Davis & Foster, P.C., as well as other companies from Connecticut, Minnesota, Illinois, and New Hampshire; and

Whereas, These exceptional and creative students, encouraged by their teacher/coach, have demonstrated a concern for their community which will grow and develop into leadership for the future; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That this legislative body honor and congratulate each of these students and their teacher/coach for this excellent undertaking; and be it further

Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to Adam Cantu, Casey Elliston, Colleen Jones, Tu Nguyen, teacher/coach Andon Pogoncheff, and Pattengill Middle School upon their distinguished achievement.

Whereas, It is with great sadness that we recognize the death of Mrs. Ballbach, age 94, on May 19, 2000, but we joyfully remember her contributions to family and society. Thelma F. Bowes was born on June 1, 1905, the daughter of Alfred Bowes and Sadie (Anderson) Bowes. She was married to Nathan A. Ballbach and they were the proud parents of Barry and Philip. Mrs. Ballbach was preceded in death by her husband and her son, Barry; and

Whereas, In her later years, she supported many and various causes dealing with peace, the environment, and social justice. She worked to make her corner of the world a better place to live in; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That this legislative body offers this expression of our respect and admiration in the memory of Thelma F. (Bowes) Ballbach and expresses its sadness over her death, while appreciating and taking comfort in the legacy she has left behind; and be it further

Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to Mrs. Ballbach's son, Philip T. Ballbach, to show how his mother's life is being commemorated.

House Resolution No. 409.

A resolution to give special recognition to Mrs. Clara J. Marshall.

Whereas, We wish to commend Mrs. Clara J. Marshall, formerly Stauffer, for the great sacrifices she made during the sixties and seventies and for keeping and instilling in her children her strong value of serving this country; and

Whereas, Mrs. Marshall gave up her four sons to military service during the height of the Vietnam conflict and for several years after. Just three short years after losing her WW II veteran husband and father of her six children to a sudden illness in March, 1961, her eldest son, Robert, joined the U.S. Navy during his senior year of high school, becoming active shortly after graduation. Before he completed his active duty, her second born son, Dennis, volunteered for the draft before his nineteenth birthday and was inducted in January, 1967. As Dennis' tour ended in December, 1968, his brother-in-law, who was married to the third born of Mrs. Marshall, was also serving in the U.S. Army at the government's request; and

Whereas, Mrs. Marshall's fourth born, Gordon, joined the U.S. Marine Corp. shortly after graduating from high school in 1968. Gordon arrived in Vietnam just two months after Dennis left, after having served a tour of duty and having returned home for a 30-day leave before going back to complete an extension that would have ensured him an "early out." Just seven days after his return, he made the ultimate sacrifice by giving his life while in the service of his country, just nine years and one day after the death of his father; and

Whereas, The sacrifice was tremendous for Mrs. Marshall during those tumultuous times. Anti-war rhetoric was at its high point and three of her four sons and a son-in-law had served, or were serving, in the military. Support of our men in uniform was at its lowest when Gordon died, and Mrs. Marshall did not want his death to be in vain. She carried herself well considering the pain and grief the two-week wait for the return of Gordon's remains caused her and her family in early March, 1970. Bracing herself against the emotional weight that another military funeral would wreak on her family, she remained strong for the sake of her two adolescent children and her new husband of two months; and

Whereas, Mrs. Marshall sent her last child, Mark, off to serve in the late seventies upon his completion of high school. Mark, the youngest family member, served honorably for eight years before reentering civilian life as a productive citizen; and

Whereas, Mrs. Marshall also had a grandson serve with the Army Reserves during the nineties; and

Whereas, It is quite obvious the depth of this family's commitment to God and our country. Mrs. Marshall followed through by encouraging the value of serving this country even after the premature death of her husband. She could have been selfish and found some way to keep one or more of her sons out of the military in the sixties, but she did not want to employ a tactic that might send some other mother's son into harms way; and

Whereas, Clara Marshall watched as her young husband left her alone to go off and help defend their country during WW II. Due to his premature death at the age of 36, Clara was left to raise six children, from 15 years of age down to the youngest of four months. She then watched four sons and a son-in-law follow through on their "sense of duty" and serve their country in uniform as their father had done; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body commend Mrs. Clara J. Marshall for all that she has accomplished; and be it further

Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to Mrs. Clara Marshall.

House Resolution No. 410.

A resolution designating October 17, 2000, as "Safe Communities/Safe Schools Day".

Whereas, The school buildings for housing public and private school personnel are not only a focal point of education but are often viewed by students as a safe haven from the violence and dangers of today's unpredictable streets. Often, the violence reported within the halls of our schools is carried in from the outside world; and,

Whereas, The public and private school personnel are dedicated not only to the education, but the overall safety of the Michigan students entrusted to their care. Indeed, during the course of a normal school year, most students spend more of their waking hours with their teachers than they do with their parents; and,

Whereas, Creating a safe learning environment for Michigan students is not only the duty and obligation of the state's educational system and its employees. The safety of our state's most precious commodity, our youth, is the duty and obligation of our society as a whole, including parents, law enforcement officials, the clergy, and the business community; and

Whereas, Community safety is based in the knowledge and understanding of one's neighborhood and surroundings, and knowledge is a learned activity. The members of the Michigan Education Association, being already identified as a source of knowledge and learning, are well-positioned to provide the impetus for this community learning activity; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That October 17, 2000, be designated as "Safe Communities/Safe Schools Day," and that the members of the Michigan Education Association be commended for their commitment to developing and implementing this community safety program; and be it further

Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to the Michigan Education Association in recognition of our esteem for its commitment to this program.

Pending the reference of the resolution to a committee,

House Resolution No. 411.

A resolution offered as a memorial for Aurelio Rodriquez, former Detroit Tigers third baseman.

Whereas, With the recent passing of Aurelio Rodriquez, the people of southwest Detroit and all of baseball has lost a gentleman of great athletic ability. We extend our condolences to his family and hope that they are comforted by the realization that their loss is shared by many people, including many who knew him only as a player, coach, and manager. Rodriquez was proud of his Mexican heritage and he encouraged more Hispanics to play baseball. He gave back to his community and loved to give autographs to his fans. Rodriquez's talents for the game of baseball and his distinguished career will long be remembered; and

Whereas, Aurelio Rodriquez was born on December 28, 1947 in Cananea, Mexico. He began as a third baseman for the California Angels at the age of 19 and was considered one of the game's finest fielders. During his 17 seasons in the major leagues, Aurelio Rodriquez played for the Detroit Tigers from 1971 to 1979. He led the American League third basemen in fielding in 1976 (.978) and 1978 (.987), and hit .417 for the New York Yankees in their six-game loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers in the 1981 World Series, alternating at third base with Greg Nettles. In addition to the previous accomplishments, in 1975 as a Detroit Tiger third baseman, he won the American League Golden Glove Award by breaking Brooks Robinson's streak of 16 consecutive American League Golden Glove Awards; and

Whereas, Rodriquez has been a manager in both the Mexican League and the winter Mexican Pacific League since 1985. His Mexican League teams have included Monterrey, Saltillo, Reynosa, and Monclova while his Mexican Pacific League teams included his home town of Los Mochis, as well as Obregon and Guasave. He managed the Monterrey Sultans in the Mexican League championship in 1991. His achievements as a baseball player included being inducted into the Mexican Baseball Hall of Fame in 1996. In 1999, Rodriquez returned to coaching in the United States for the Tucson Diamondbacks; and

Whereas, While his loss has mostly affected his friends and family, especially his wife and son who were the center of his life, his absence has taken one of baseball's greatest third basemen; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we offer this expression of our respect and admiration in the memory of Aurelio Rodriquez, former Detroit Tiger baseball player; and be it further

Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to the family of Aurelio Rodriquez with our deepest sympathy for their loss.

The question being on the adoption of the resolution.
