"Our Heavenly Father, we thank You for the grace of another day. I thank You, Father, for the men and women of this legislative body. We ask Your blessing today, that You would give them the wisdom that they need for the decisions that are before them. We thank You for their willingness to serve our state and our people. We ask Your blessing and protection over their families as well. Father, we pray that all of the decisions made today might profit the people of Michigan to a great extent. Father, we also remember the family of our former Secretary of State. We ask Your blessing upon them today--that You would comfort them and minister to their needs. We thank You for Richard Austin and the years that he has served our state. We ask Your blessing at this time especially on his family. Our Father, once again we thank You for the freedoms that we enjoy in this nation. We pray that each one of us might live responsible lives before You. Again, we thank You for the members of this body and ask Your blessing upon them and their families in a very special way today. We offer these things in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen."

______

 

 

Rep. Drolet, 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 voted 'No' on this Bill because it increases the fee for snowmobile enthusiasts who already pay high gasoline taxes without receiving benefits from those taxes.

The gas tax is used for Michigan roads. Since snowmobiles are not driven on roads, gas taxes paid for snowmobile operation should be used for trail improvements."

 

Rep. Gosselin, 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:

Since 1997, the budget for the Department of Natural Resources has increased by $71 million, from $198 million to $269 million in the current fiscal year. That's a 35.8 percent increase. In the same period inflation has risen just 7.2 percent. How more do they want? The proponents of this bill cite a long list of benefits that would come from the increased revenue. I'm sure they are right. But that is not the point. The taxpayers are already paying for huge DNR spending increases--more than enough to accomplish the aims of this fee hike."

 

 

House Bill No. 4538, entitled

A bill to amend 1994 PA 451, entitled "Natural resources and environmental protection act," by amending section 82110 (MCL 324.82110), as added by 1995 PA 58.

House Resolution No. 85.

A resolution to memorialize the Congress of the United States to enact legislation to give states the authority to ban out-of-state solid waste.

Whereas, In 1992, the United States Supreme Court, in Fort Gratiot Sanitary Landfill v. Michigan Department of Natural Resources, ruled that states could not regulate or ban the importation of solid waste because only Congress has the authority to regulate interstate commerce. Since that time, Michigan has become the dumping ground for increasing amounts of solid waste from outside of our state and, with large amounts of trash from Canada, from outside the country; and

Whereas, Michigan has become one of the largest recipients of imported solid waste in the country. Approximately 15 percent of all trash dumped in landfills in Michigan now originates elsewhere. The amounts have increased significantly in the past several years, and recent reports of a major contract with Ontario and of the closing of the nation's largest landfill in New York seem to indicate this situation will only become a bigger issue in the future; and

Whereas, Accepting unlimited volumes of trash from outside our state is a serious long-term commitment. Long after the money from the contract has been spent, there is a threat to the environment and an obligation to monitor sites to protect water and health. Clearly, any state accepting these long-term risks should be able to regulate what comes across state lines for disposal; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we memorialize the Congress of the United States to enact legislation to give states the authority to ban out-of-state solid waste; 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.

House Resolution No. 86.

A resolution designating April 30, 2001, as "Día de los Niños: Celebrating Young Americans".

Whereas, Many of the nations throughout the world, and especially within the Western hemisphere, celebrate "Día de los Niños" on the 30th of April, in recognition and celebration of their country's future their children; and

Whereas, Children represent the hopes and dreams of the citizens of the United States. Children are the center of American families. They should be nurtured and invested in to preserve and enhance economic prosperity, democracy, and the American spirit; and

Whereas, Latinos in the United States, the youngest and fastest growing ethnic community in the nation, continue the tradition of honoring their children on this day and wish to share this custom with the rest of the nation; and

Whereas, One in four Americans is projected to be of Hispanic descent by the year 2050. Currently there are 10.5 million Latino children. Traditional Latino family life centers largely on its children; and

Whereas, The primary teachers of family values, morality, and culture are parents and family members, and we rely on our children to pass on these family values, morals, and culture to future generation. More than 500,000 children drop out of school each year and Hispanic dropout rates are unacceptably high. The importance of literacy and education are most often communicated to children through family members; and

Whereas, Families should be encouraged to engage in family and community activities that include extended and elderly family members and encourage children to explore, develop confidence, and pursue their dreams; and

Whereas, The designation of a day to honor the children of the nation will help affirm for the people of the United States the significance of family, education, and community. This day of recognition of children of the United States will provide an opportunity for children to reflect on their future, articulate their dreams and aspirations, and find comfort and security in the support of their family members and communities; and

Whereas, The National Latino Children's Institute, serving as a voice for children, has worked with cities throughout the country to declare April 30, 2001 as "Día de los Niños: Celebrating Young Americans", a day to bring together Latinos and other communities nationwide to celebrate and uplift children. This traditional Latin American holiday has been observed nationally since April 30, 1998. It is a day for parents, families, and communities to value and uplift children of all cultures in the United States. Cities throughout the United States and Puerto Rico have committed to creating parades, book festivals, health fairs, and other special events that promote the well-being of children. Mayors and other leaders join the celebration by passing resolutions and making public commitments to children. This celebration provides a means for families and the larger society to communicate and become aware of the status of our children. It also empowers the community to act on behalf of its children throughout the year; and

Whereas, Children's days are already celebrated in many countries throughout the world, including Canada (Nov. 20), Japan (May 5), and Korea (May 5), as well as by various international organizations such as UNICEF (April 23) and the United Nations (Nov. 20). In Latin America, days have also been traditionally set aside to commemorate the essential role of children in the future of every nation; and

Whereas, The children of a nation are the responsibility of all its citizens and the citizens should be encouraged to celebrate the gifts of children to society, their curiosity, laughter, faith, energy, spirit, hopes, and dreams; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we designate April 30, 2001, as "Día de los Niños: Celebrating Young Americans". Activities should center around children that are free or of minimal cost so as to encourage and facilitate the participation of all our citizens. The activities ought to be positive, uplifting, and help children express their hopes and dreams. They should provide opportunities for children of all backgrounds to learn about other cultures and share ideas. The activities should include all members of the family, and especially be extended to the elderly family members, so as to promote greater communication among the generations within a family, enabling children to appreciate and benefit from the experiences and wisdom of their elderly family members. The events should include opportunities for families within a community to get acquainted. All activities should provide children with the support they need to develop skills and confidence and find the inner strength, the will, and the fire of the human spirit to make their dreams come true.

House Resolution No. 87.

A resolution to memorialize the Congress of the United States to provide adequate funding for Michigan's Remedial Action Plans for Areas of Concern under the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement.

Whereas, The United States-Canada Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement of 1972, as amended, provided for the designation of Areas of Concern in need of remedial actions to address documented pollution problems; and

Whereas, Fourteen Areas of Concern have been designated in Michigan, each with a Remedial Action Plan process that coordinates and focuses the efforts of multiple levels of government and other stakeholders; and

Whereas, Many of Michigan's Remedial Action Plans are entering the implementation phase, when funding for technical guidance and coordination by state agency staff is critically important; and

Whereas, The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has traditionally supported state Area of Concern efforts. This is consistent with the EPA's responsibilities under the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement; and

Whereas, Funding through the EPA is vital to leveraging funding through the Clean Michigan Initiative environmental bond program to implement measurable environmental improvements in Michigan's fourteen Areas of Concern; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we memorialize the Congress of the United States to reaffirm its support for and federal role in the Areas of Concern program by allocating a minimum of $7.5 million for the Great Lakes Areas of Concern in Fiscal Year 2002; and be it further

Resolved, That we urge that no less than $1.0 million of this total be allocated by the EPA for efforts within the state of Michigan to develop and implement Remedial Action Plans and associated activities under the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement; and be it further

Resolved, That we urge that these funds be allocated to provide no less than $700,000 for Michigan Department of Environmental Quality staff; $125,000 for Statewide Public Advisory Council activities; and $175,000 for support to individual Public Advisory Councils within the Areas of Concern; and be it further

Resolved, That we urge that funding support for the EPA be used to leverage substantial resources from the Clean Michigan Initiative environmental bond program for contaminated sediment remediation, nonpoint source pollution control, brownfields redevelopment, and other critical efforts; and be it further

Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the Administrator of the EPA, the EPA's Region 5 Office, the EPA's Great Lakes National Program Office, the International Joint Commission, the President of the United States Senate, the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, and the members of the Michigan congressional delegation.

House Resolution No. 88.

A resolution honoring the life of Kelly Vermeersch.

Whereas, It is in grateful recognition of his many years of loyal service protecting and defending the people of Huron county that we honor the life of Kelly Vermeersch. Kelly was a deputy with the Huron County Sheriff's Department. Kelly was killed in the line of duty in the early morning hours of Sunday, June 11, 2000. On behalf of everyone who has benefitted directly from the work of this outstanding law enforcement officer, and the countless others that have enjoyed his strong work ethics and commitment to the community, we offer our appreciation and thanks in recognition of this brave deputy; and

Whereas, Few professions hold more responsibility and danger than police work. While this has always been the case, the increasing presence of drugs and violence in our society has served to make this an even more difficult task. The most routine and seemingly innocent situation can quickly become a moment of terror. Each day, on each shift, the men and women who protect us cope with this pressure while maintaining the perspective that most people are law abiding and that most hold great respect for them; and

Whereas, Kelly Vermeersch has given immeasurable service and contributed diligently over the course of his career. He is deeply missed by both his fellow officers and his family. He leaves behind a loving wife, Salli, and 3 daughters, Katie, Andrea, and Janel. Kelly signified a level of professionalism best appreciated by fellow officers, who also draw strength from the high standards he had set and shared with the entire Huron County Sheriff's Department; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body honor Kelly Vermeersch who demonstrated characteristics of compassion in both his personal and professional life. He made the ultimate sacrifice, giving his life while working to protect the residents of Huron county; and be it further

Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to Kelly Vermeersch's family and fellow officers as evidence of our highest regard.

House Resolution No. 89.

A resolution honoring Huron Valley Schools Special Olympics.

Whereas, It is most appropriate that official praise and commendation be accorded to Huron Valley Schools first ever Special Olympics event on Saturday, May 5, 2001, at Milford High School. Approximately 50 student athletes from White Lake, Milford, Commerce, and Highland will have loads of fun while competing in track and field events. Indeed, through the diligent and enthusiastic efforts of the many dedicated volunteers, chaperones, coaches, and, most importantly, the participants, the Special Olympics has become a truly joyous occasion; and

Whereas, Special Olympics is an international program of sports training and competition for children and adults and was established by the Joseph P. Kennedy, Jr. Foundation to develop and strengthen the physical, mental, and social well-being of each athlete. The games are designed to afford the less fortunate individuals of our state with the opportunity to enjoy the thrill of athletic competition and to meet new friends. Those competing are provided an opportunity to exhibit their skills and abilities, in which they take great pride; and

Whereas, The many individuals who have worked to make the Special Olympics possible, including the coaches, trainers, volunteers, and others are deserving of our sincere gratitude. Their efforts on behalf of our special citizens are greatly appreciated and have earned for them our respect and admiration. Certainly everyone associated with the event is graced with a wreath of victory; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That this legislative body honors Huron Valley Schools on the occasion of its first ever Special Olympics event and best wishes are offered for continued success in the future; and be it further

Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to Huron Valley Schools as a token of our esteem.

House Resolution No. 90.

A resolution to memorialize the Congress of the United States to adopt and present to the states for ratification an amendment to the United States Constitution that permits Congress to prohibit the desecration of the American flag.

Whereas, The flag of the United States is a cherished symbol to the people of our country and freedom-seeking people around the world. For generations, Old Glory has been a source of inspiration to our citizens, reminding us all of the gifts we share in this country; and

Whereas, The American flag is most powerful as a reminder of the suffering and sacrifice of the men and women who defended our nation in times of peril. The memories of those who have bled and died for the ideals represented by the flag serve to remind all of us that the cost of our liberty is beyond measure; and

Whereas, Incidents of desecration of the American flag are very offensive to the American people. While groups and individuals in other lands sometimes take these actions, it is most disturbing when people within our country defile this symbol of our nation; and

Whereas, Efforts to provide legal protection for the American flag have been thwarted in the name of protecting free speech. To many Americans, however, the notion of protecting the flag from desecration does not equate with curtailing anyone's freedom of expression. Indeed, there are probably more avenues for free self-expression here than anywhere else in the world. Reasonable restrictions on the use of the flag would not be any more of a limit on personal freedoms as other laws that restrict behavior for the common good. Amending the United States Constitution to permit Congress to prohibit the desecration of the flag is an idea strongly supported by the people in this country; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we memorialize the Congress of the United States to adopt and present to the states for ratification an amendment to the United States Constitution that permits Congress to prohibit the desecration of the American flag; 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.

House Resolution No. 91.

A resolution honoring Robert L. Stewart in recognition of his sixty-five years of perfect attendance with the Wyandotte Kiwanis Club #1000.

Whereas, The Wyandotte Kiwanis Club #1000 will gather on April 26, 2001, to honor Mr. Robert Stewart for his achievement of a perfect attendance record for Kiwanis Club meetings for the past sixty-five years. This is an achievement which will undoubtedly stand in the record books for many years to come. We offer our sincerest best wishes and humble appreciation to Bob for the time, efforts, and other gifts he has so graciously shared with the Kiwanis organization, the city of Wyandotte, the entire downriver community, and all of the citizens of the state of Michigan, and

Whereas, Mr. Robert Stewart joined the Wyandotte Kiwanis Club #1000 in March of 1936 and has never missed a Kiwanis meeting since. During these past sixty-five years, Bob served as the club's President in 1966 and has become a life member. Bob also served as the Lt. Governor of the Kiwanis Michigan District #5 in 1970 and 1971 and received their Legion of Honor and Hickson Fellow Awards for his dedicated efforts. In 1994, because of the esteemed example he set, the "Robert Stewart Outstanding Service Award" was created to present to citizens who have contributed and volunteered the most to the community; and

Whereas, Over the past sixty-five years, Bob has accumulated quite an extensive record in a variety of ways. In April of 2000, it was noted that Bob had attended 3,328 consecutive meetings and 6,656 regular meetings, spent approximately $40,156 in meals, paid $3,328 in dues, driven 33,280 miles to attend meetings and participate in projects, and shaken nearly 732,160 hands during those sixty-four years of meetings. These statistics were staggering last year at this time and today they have only increased. Truly, Robert L. Stewart is an outstanding example of kindness. He has performed good deeds toward others and, most assuredly, our world has become a better place because of him; and

Whereas, On August 11, 2000, Bob and his wife, Virginia, celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary. Virginia has always been supportive of Kiwanis and has enjoyed all of the many activities and conventions with Bob. In 1939, Virginia graduated from Sparrow Hospital with her degree as a registered nurse. They have raised four children, Alice, Jean, Lee, and John and have ten grandchildren; and

Whereas, Whether it is fund-raising for the Kiwanis world-wide project of finding a cure for iodine deficiency disorder or helping with sports activities for youngsters, Bob Stewart and the Wyandotte Kiwanis Club #1000 are always available to lend a helping hand. The members and officers of the Wyandotte Kiwanis will remember the vision of many individuals and the hours and years of commitment which have brought the group to this auspicious occasion. May Bob, his wife, children, entire family, and friends, know of the esteem this kind gentleman is held. Fittingly, as Bob looks to the past sixty-five years, he will also be casting an eye to the future and to the many ways in which the Wyandotte Kiwanis Club #1000 will continue to reach out across communities; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That this legislative body honor Mr. Robert L. Stewart for maintaining sixty-five years of perfect attendance with the Wyandotte Kiwanis Club #1000. We commend Bob for his many contributions in adding to the success of this fine organization and thank him for the unbelievable example he has set; and be if further

Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to Mr. Robert L. Stewart as evidence of our appreciation and gratitude.
