The amending House shall request return of the bill or resolution or appoint conferees. The conference committee shall consist of three members from each House, to be appointed as each House may determine.

Upon appointment of conferees by both Houses, the bill or resolution shall be referred to the conference committee.
(b) The conference committees of the two Houses shall vote separately while in conference. The majority of each committee shall constitute a quorum of each committee and shall determine the position to be taken toward the propositions of the conference committee. If the conferees agree, a report shall be made which shall be signed by at least a majority of the conferees of each House who were present and voted in the conference committee meeting to adopt the report. The bill or resolution, including the original signed conference report and three copies, shall be filed in the House of origin where the question shall be on the adoption of the conference report. If the conference report is adopted, the bill or resolution, including the original signed conference report, and two copies of the conference report shall be transmitted to the other House where the question shall be on the adoption of the conference report. If the conference report is adopted in the other House, the bill or resolution and the original signed copy of the conference report shall be returned to the House of origin and referred for enrollment printing and presentation to the Governor, filing with the Secretary of State, or filing for record with the Secretary of the Senate or Clerk of the House of Representatives.

Conference Report: Rejection.
Rule 5. If the conference report is rejected by the House of origin, it shall appoint second conferees and notify the other House of its action. The procedure shall then be the same as for an original conference.
If the conference report is rejected by the other House, it shall appoint second conferees, notify the House of origin of its action, and transmit the bill or resolution to the House of origin.

Adoption of Conference Report.
Rule 9. Conference reports shall not be subject to amendments or division. The vote on conference reports shall be taken by "yeas" and "nays" and shall require the same number of votes constitutionally required for passage of the bill or adoption of the resolution. Conference reports shall not be considered until printed in the Journal. The Journal printing requirement may be suspended by a House by a majority vote in that House, provided that a printed copy of the conference report has been placed on each member's desk.
Conference Reports: Points of Order.
Rule 10. Points of order regarding conference reports shall be decided by the presiding officer, subject to an appeal, which appeal shall be determined by a majority vote. When a conference report is ruled out of order, it is a rejection of the report. Either House may refer the conference report back to the conference committee with instructions to eliminate from the report such matters as have been declared not within the powers of the conferees to consider.
Either House May Recede.
Rule 11. At any time while in possession of the bill or resolution, either House may recede from its position in whole or in part, and the bill or resolution upon request may be returned to the other House for that purpose.

Rule 12. If errors are found in a bill or resolution which has been passed or adopted by both Houses, the House in which the bill or resolution originated may make amendments to correct the errors and shall notify the other House of its action. If the corrective amendments are agreed to by the other House, the corrected bill or resolution shall be referred for enrollment printing and presentation to the Governor, filing with the Secretary of State, or filing for record with the Secretary of the Senate or Clerk of the House of Representatives.

Bills and Joint Resolutions.

The Secretary of the Senate and the Clerk of the House of Representatives shall delete such catch lines and clauses from all bills.
The same joint resolution shall not propose an amendment to the Constitution on more than one subject matter. However, more than one section of the Constitution may be included in the same joint resolution if the subject matter of each section is germane to the proposed amendment.
Yeas and Nays.

In the event the presiding officer and all members are absent on a day scheduled for meeting, the Secretary of the Senate or the Clerk of the House of Representatives, as the case may be, shall call that House to order at the designated time and announce the absence of a quorum. That House shall be declared adjourned until the succeeding legislative day and hour previously designated.
In any event where either or both Houses of the Legislature adjourns to a date certain for more than two days, a committee composed of the Majority Leader of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives may, by a unanimous vote of that committee, convene either or both Houses of the Legislature at any time in case of emergency.
If a gubernatorial appointment that is subject to the advice and consent process is made at a time such that 60 days would lapse during an extended recess of the Senate, the Senate Majority Leader may schedule a session of the Senate for the sole purpose of carrying out the Senate's constitutional duties to advise and consent on gubernatorial appointments. No other action shall be taken by the Senate during session convened under this provision. The Senate Majority Leader shall notify the Secretary of the Senate at least 10 calendar days prior to the date of the scheduled session, and the Secretary of the Senate shall take all reasonable steps to notify the members of the Senate of the scheduled session.

Enrolled bills shall be presented to the Governor, and enrolled joint resolutions that propose an amendment to the Constitution shall be filed with the Secretary of State with a certificate attached to the effect that the joint resolution has been adopted by the Senate and House of Representatives, respectively, in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution. If the House having last passed the bill or adopted the joint resolution requests its return and such request be granted or a motion is made in the House of origin to amend errors in the bill or joint resolution or to give the bill immediate effect, the enrollment printing shall not occur.
Every bill, joint resolution, and concurrent resolution passed or adopted by either House shall be transmitted to the other House. If notice of a motion to reconsider on the next succeeding legislative day is made from the floor or written notice is filed with the Secretary of the Senate or the Clerk of the House of Representatives, as the case may be, the bill, joint resolution, or concurrent resolution shall remain in that House until after adjournment the next succeeding legislative day.

Other joint resolutions shall require a majority of the members serving in each House for adoption. All joint resolutions shall require a record roll call vote.
Veto Override: Filing with Secretary of State.

When a bill is passed by both Houses over the objections of the Governor or a bill is not filed by the Governor with the Secretary of State within the constitutionally mandated 14-day period, and the Legislature continues in session, an official enrolled bill with a letter from the House of origin signed by the Secretary of the Senate or the Clerk of the House of Representatives, as appropriate, shall be filed with the Secretary of State for a public act number to be assigned. The letter shall certify that the Governor's veto has been overridden by both Houses of the Legislature or that the bill has not been returned within the specified time, as the case may be, in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution.

Such title shall contain the last title of the act it is proposed to amend.

The title shall also contain the chapter, part numbers and compiler's section numbers, if any, and the year of the compilation containing the same.
Following the passage of a bill with a short title, the House other than the House of origin shall replace the short title with the last full title of the act it is proposed to amend or repeal. Other corrective amendments to the title shall be made as may be necessary. The full title and amended title shall be agreed to by both Houses.
When an amendment to a bill or a bill to amend an existing law is printed, words proposed to be added to such law shall be printed in upper case (capital) type, and the words to be omitted shall be printed in stricken-through type. This style requirement also applies to joint resolutions that amend the Constitution of Michigan.
All bills and joint resolutions introduced, amendments to joint resolutions, substitute bills and joint resolutions, and conference committee reports shall be approved as to form and section numbers by the Legislative Service Bureau.
Tie-bars.
Rule 21. A bill or resolution that is tie-barred to a request number shall not be considered for passage or adoption unless that tie-barred request item has been introduced. No bill or resolution shall be passed or adopted by either House until the tie-barred item has been designated in the appropriate blank space provided.

Pending Business.
Rule 28. Any business, bill, or joint resolution which has not been defeated by either House shall be considered pending under the provisions of Article 4, Section 13 of the Constitution.
It shall not be in order for either House, by suspension of rules or any other means, to reconsider in a subsequent year the vote by which any business, bill, joint resolution, or veto override was defeated in a previous year.

House Resolution No. 135.
A resolution honoring Nicholas Chilenko.
Whereas, It is with great pleasure that we commend Nicholas Chilenko, a 13-year old web developer, as the newest and youngest member of Automation Alley, one of America's premier technology clusters. This renown Oakland county resident represents the best of what our younger generation has to offer as they prepare to become our future leaders; and
Whereas, An excellent student at White Lake Middle School, this seventh grader has maintained a 3.8 grade point average. He has also garnered numerous honors including an award presented by the Huron Valley School district for supporting staff and students in White Lake Middle School's computer program. In addition to his academic accomplishments, Nick enjoys several hobbies including golf and listening to music; and
Whereas, At the age of 10, Nicholas Chilenko created his first web page, and eventually assumed responsibility for the website of his father's company, United Vacuum, located in Orchard Lake and Waterford. His reputation as a skilled web developer quickly spread and it wasn't too long before he was lining up customers; and
Whereas, This young entrepreneur owns and operates Fynite Web Development Company, which has a client roster of 14 companies and two employees. Due to his business booming, Nick recently hired a 15-year old graphics designer and a 17-year old projects manager; and
Whereas, Nicholas Chilenko is a fine example of the young people who will take us into the future. His initiative, drive, and creative spirit represents the strong qualities we need in our business community and what our country needs to be globally competitive; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body honor the business skills and technological talents of Nicholas Chilenko as a role model for a new generation of young entrepreneurs. We applaud his outstanding record of achievement and extend our best wishes for continued success and happiness in all future endeavors; and be it further

House Resolution No. 136.
A resolution to memorialize the President and the Congress of the United States to work for the admission of Latvia into NATO.
Whereas, Since its founding in the wake of World War II, NATO has been an important force in bringing peace, stability, and partnership to the member nations. In addition to its role to work for the security of an area of the world racked by the horrors of wars, NATO has promoted the growth of democracy and accountability that are vital to the well-being not only of the individual countries, but also the future of Europe and much of the world; and
Whereas, Since the restoration of its independence in 1991, Latvia has been a leader among former Iron Curtain countries in developing democratic institutions and fostering a free-market economy. Latvia has already proven its commitment to the ideals of NATO through its work in a host of world and trade organizations; and
Whereas, Latvia has a long and distinguished record of leadership among the Baltic nations. Hundreds of years ago, it was a key member of the Hanseatic League, and Latvia has remained a strategic trading partner with its European neighbors throughout history. From the ruins of World War I, it developed a vibrant economy with democratic principles; and
Whereas, Latvia is strongly committed to NATO's defense priorities. Further, it has set in place prudent monetary and social policies well in keeping with those of other eastern European nations that have recently become part of NATO. Opening the doors of welcome to Latvia will expand the breadth of this vitally important organization; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we memorialize the President and the Congress of the United States to work for the admission of Latvia into NATO; 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.

House Resolution No. 137.
A resolution to memorialize the Congress of the United States to enact the Steel Revitalization Act of 2001.
Whereas, In recent years, the American steel industry--a vital gauge of our long-term economic strength and security--has suffered a precipitous decline. Our steel production capacity, the size of the workforce in this industry, and efforts to modernize facilities have all suffered from the effects of trade practices that include other nations selling steel in the United States at prices below what the steel costs those nations to make; and
Whereas, To certain nations, developing a steel industry is so important that they subsidize costs and dump their products onto the American market. As a result, more and more of the steel used in the United States is produced elsewhere. This has a devastating impact on steelworkers and may have ominous long-term consequences for our nation; and
Whereas, On a level playing field, the American steel industry is a world leader in productivity and efficiency. Under the unfair practices that now exist, our steel industry is on the brink of collapse; and
Whereas, Congress has before it a bill, H.R. 808, that would address on many fronts the unfair situation facing the American steel industry. The Steel Revitalization Act of 2001 includes provisions to deal with imports dumped at below costs, to create greater access to capital, to encourage economies through restructuring, and to bring relief to the steel workforce and retirees. This legislation is an investment in an enterprise that is fundamental to a strong future for our nation; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we memorialize the Congress of the United States to enact the Steel Revitalization Act of 2001; 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 Commerce.
