Rev., Dr. Mickarl D. Thomas, Sr., Senior Pastor of Vernon Chapel AME Church in Flint, offered the following invocation:

“Almighty and Eternal Father, we pause at this time before the Michigan State House of Representatives’ embarks on their business, to invoke Your Divine presence and spiritual guidance. There are numerous critical issues this august body must address. We are not praying and desiring resources for a particular segment of the great state of Michigan but we are praying the best for all the residents of Michigan. May Your spirit penetrate the minds of the elected officials, stir their hearts and permeate the walls of this chamber.

Lord, please grant courage to the law makers to make the best decisions for their constituency and help the citizens to understand when tough decisions have been made. We pray for all of the elected and appointed officials of the state and help us to reflect on the words of the Hebrew prophets; Micah and Amos. Micah said we are to act justly, love mercy and to walk humbly with our God and Amos declared let justice run down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream.

Master, we are aware it is imperative for us to have a sensitization to all of humanity. Help us all to recognize the preciousness and sanctity of life. In the midst of political party differences help us find commonalities. As this body represents different nationalities and ethnic groups help us find strength in diversity. Let not philosophical dogmas and theological interpretations bring about fragmentation and alienation. Make us mindful that our different tributaries of politics lead into the main river of humanity which You created and supply.

Where there is poverty we pray for plenty, where there is darkness we pray for light, where there is sickness we pray for healing, where there is oppression we pray for liberation, where there is strife we pray for peace and where there is despair we pray for hope. Now grant each of us that peace which passeth all understanding.

We offer this prayer in the sacred names of all believers; Yahweh, Elohim, El Shaddai, Allah, Lord and Jesus the Christ, Amen.”

In The Chair: Walsh

The House agreed to the title of the bill.

______

Rep. Irwin, 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:

Unfortunately, I opposed HB 5572 because of a last minute amendment that removed language requiring the department to be ‘culturally appropriate.’ It is disappointing that an amendment would be offered and accepted by the body when its only effect is to endorse cultural biases that further divide our society. Michigan is at our best when we open our arms to the world and we would do well to remember that ‘Michigan’ is a name derived from our indigenous ancestors.”

Rep. Cavanagh, 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 was in favor of HB5572. The idea of expanding and documenting home visitation programs is important; but the Republicans gaveled through an amendment deleting the phrase ‘culturally appropriate’ just seconds before the final vote. I see no reason at all for this amendment but for cultural insensitivity. It is quite appropriate that the Department of Community Health, Human Services and Education take into mind the race and religious beliefs of those they are serving. A good bill was made intolerable by prejudice.”

Reps. Barnett and Bledsoe, having reserved the right to explain their protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:

“Mr. Speaker and members of the House:

I voted no on House Bill 5572, because of an amendment that was unexpectedly adopted before the vote on the bill that removed the requirement that home visitations programs supported by the State be ‘culturally appropriate.’

I support home visitation programs, which have long been used with families with young children to provide information, guidance, risk assessment, and parenting support interventions at home with the goal of improving pregnancy outcomes, parenting skills, and early childhood health and development. These programs target low-income families, who may be at high risk for infant mortality, family violence, developmental delays, disabilities, social isolation, unequal access to health care, environmental exposures, and other adverse conditions.

Working with families with very diverse backgrounds requires that home visitation programs be designed as culturally appropriate to not only tailor the program to the unique needs of the family, but to improve the program and outcomes.”

Rep. Tlaib, having reserved the right to explain her protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:

“Mr. Speaker and members of the House:

I voted no on House Bill 5572 because an amendment was adopted on the House Floor to remove the language ‘culturally appropriate’ from the bill. I represent one of the most diverse communities, House District 12, where we house twenty different ethnicities and our mothers deserve to be provided with culturally sensitive home visitations programs.

Our diverse families require home visitation programs that are culturally appropriate to not only tailor the program to the unique needs of the family, but to improve the program and outcomes. It ensures that our newborns and mothers are provided with the best care possible.”

Senate Bill No. 1090, entitled

Motions and Resolutions

Rep. Stamas moved to reconsider the vote by which the House adopted House Concurrent Resolution No. 46.

(The concurrent resolution was adopted earlier today, see today’s Journal p. 1620.)

The motion prevailed, a majority of the members serving voting therefor.

The question being on the adoption of the concurrent resolution,

Rep. Pettalia moved to substitute (H-1) the concurrent resolution as follows:

Substitute for House Concurrent Resolution No. 46.

A concurrent resolution to memorialize Congress to reconsider cuts to vocational education and explore future funding opportunities.

Whereas, Vocational education consists of industry-focused teachings, tailored to teach students the skills and knowledge needed to be successful in a specified industry. Companies depend on workers with expertise, and many require an advanced certification in a specified field, creating a large job market for individuals with these qualifications; and

Whereas, In a tough and unstable economy, many students cannot afford to attend a four- year university. Vocational education provides an alternative form of education that allows workers to enter the work force directly and succeed. The Georgetown Center for Education and the Workforce has projected that U.S. employers will have 47 million job openings between 2010 and 2018, 14 million of which will require an associate’s degree or a vocational education certificate, rather than a bachelor’s degree; and

Whereas, Federal funding for vocational education has been cut by $140 million this year and has been proposed to be cut an additional 20 percent within the next year. These cuts have depleted a thriving job market for those who obtain skills from vocational education, young people seeking careers and experienced workers pursuing new fields. Many technical jobs, which require two years of college or advanced certification, will go unfilled if the highly skilled workforce is further diminished by funding cuts; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), That we memorialize Congress to reconsider cuts to vocational education and explore future funding opportunities; 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 motion prevailed and the substitute (H-1) was adopted, a majority of the members serving voting therefor.

The question being on the adoption of the concurrent resolution,

The concurrent resolution was adopted.

Rep. Stamas moved to reconsider the vote by which the House adopted House Resolution No. 161.

(The resolution was adopted earlier today, see today’s Journal p. 1620.)

The motion prevailed, a majority of the members serving voting therefor.

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

Rep. Hooker moved to substitute (H-1) the resolution as follows:

Substitute for House Resolution No. 161.

A resolution to memorialize the United States Congress to explore funding opportunities for the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act and for special education funding to the state of Michigan.

Whereas, Americans recognize that we have a moral and legal obligation to provide equal educational opportunities to all of our children, regardless of their disability status. The United States Congress in 1975 enacted the Education for All Handicapped Children Act in order to help states cope with the financial burdens of providing special education services so that all children may participate fully in public education; and

Whereas, The current law, renamed in 1990 as the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), renewed our national commitment to the ideal of universal public school education for our children regardless of disabilities. However, the federal government has never fulfilled its original promise of providing states with 40 percent of the additional costs of providing special education services. Indeed, the federal government has settled for a goal of providing 17 percent of the state funding needs. Even recent stimulus spending additions have not increased this funding percentage to more than about 18 percent, well under half of the original promise; and

Whereas, In these dire financial times, when our state is struggling to maintain critical services without burdensome additions to our tax system, it is vital that the federal government continually look for prospective funding and initiatives to support state special education programs. We have made great strides in the area of equal opportunity for students with disabilities, but our achievements are threatened. A commitment by Congress to actively engage in finding funds for special education would be welcome in helping to cope with the deep recession that has ravaged Michigan’s financial health; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we memorialize the United States Congress to explore funding opportunities for the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act and for special education funding to the state of Michigan; and be it further

The motion prevailed and the substitute (H-1) was adopted, a majority of the members serving voting therefor.

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

The resolution was adopted.
