Rep. Kevin J. Green, from the 77th District, offered the following invocation:
“Lord, as we come together today, we ask for Your divine guidance and wisdom which will lead us in the right direction as we diligently work to address the issues of this great State. Lord don’t let us forget why we are here: to love and to protect not only our families but the families of our constituents.
We come before You, thankful for another day in these chambers to serve the people of the state of Michigan. As fall nears, You have blessed us with beautiful weather and we are reminded of the marvels and miracles You have created.
Let us not forget to keep the military men and women in our prayers as they continue to sacrifice for our freedoms and serve this wonderful country.
We thank You for the opportunity each of us has to serve our respective districts and we ask for wisdom to carry out legislation that glorifies You in all things. We ask Your blessings upon the members of the House of Representatives, the Senate and the Executive Branch and let us not forget the importance of kindness, trust and reconciliation.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen.”

Whereas, Motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death for children from 3 to 14-years-old. In the United States during 2008, 968 children ages 14 years and younger died as occupants in motor vehicle crashes, and approximately 168,000 were injured. Children deserve the protection promised them under the law through the use of child restraint devices and seat belt usage; and
Whereas, To alleviate child fatalities and injuries suffered in automobile crashes, a law was passed in Michigan in 1982 making child restraint device use mandatory for children under the age of four. Thanks to this law, and others around the country, an estimated 8,959 lives were saved by child restraints from 1975 to 2008. An evaluation of the effectiveness of the proper use of child restraint devices found that the risk of serious injury for children between 12 and 47 months of age was 78 percent lower for children seated in forward facing child restraint devices than children restrained in seat belts alone; and
Whereas, It is estimated that close to three out of four parents do not properly use child restraints. In order to prevent the misuse of child restraint devices one week each year is devoted to the education and demonstration of proper usage. As part of the education effort Saturday, September 25, 2010, is Seat Check Saturday. Residents are encouraged to visit one of the 236 Michigan locations for a free child restraint seat safety inspection. The 236 Michigan locations including fire stations, police departments, sheriff’s departments, schools, childcare centers, and hospitals should be commended for their willingness to assist residents in properly securing children; and
Whereas, Through public and private efforts, our community is taking the proper steps to educate and correct the misuse regarding child restraint devices. Child passenger safety is a serious issue. With the proper education thousands of children will be properly protected, saving thousands of lives; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare the week of September 19-25, 2010, as Child Passenger Safety Week in the state of Michigan.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.
Rep. Marleau offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 330.
A resolution to declare September 2010 as Auxiliary Police Officers Month in the state of Michigan.
Whereas; Auxiliary police are specially trained volunteer citizens granted the authority to enforce the law to protect and serve our local communities; and
Whereas; We join the family of Lt. Dan Kromer of the Taylor Auxiliary Police in honoring a life that was cut tragically short on September 7, 2010; and
Whereas; According to the Reserve Police Officers Association, there have been at least 26 police volunteers in the United States since November 2001 that have been killed in the line of duty including Lt. Dan Kromer; and
Whereas; Municipalities throughout Michigan utilize auxiliary officers in support of professional law enforcement and during times of emergency; and
Whereas; Michigan contains some of our nation’s most active auxiliary police forces with Taylor Police Department’s 45 volunteer officers donating over 14,000 hours and the Oakland County Sheriff’s Reserve of 100 officers donating more than 20,000 hours from traffic patrol and local events to major special events throughout Michigan; and
Whereas; This invaluable group of citizens is being honored for their commitment and dedication to the safety of our communities at the risk of their own lives; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare September 2010 as Auxiliary Police Officers Month to recognize the sacrifices of our volunteer police forces; and be it further
Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to the Oakland County Sheriff’s Office, the City of Taylor Police Department, Mrs. Shannon Edwards and Mrs. Joyce Kromer.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.
