Motions and Resolutions
Reps. Hughes, Franz, Yonker, Bumstead, Gilbert, Genetski, Wayne Schmidt, Price, Jacobsen, Rendon, Walsh, Kurtz, Pettalia, LaFontaine, Denby, Muxlow, Shaughnessy, Horn, Rogers, Potvin, Ouimet, Foster, Goike, Scott, Kowall, Callton, Olson, Somerville, Cotter, Shirkey, Tyler, MacMaster, Haveman, Haines, Moss, Agema, Lori, Forlini, Lyons, O’Brien, Zorn, Knollenberg, Barnett, Brown, Darany, Hooker, LeBlanc, Liss, Poleski and Slavens offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 98.
A resolution to declare June 11-19, 2011, as Aquatic Invasive Species Awareness Week in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, Michigan and its economy are defined by the Great Lakes and depend on their great abundance of freshwater for manufacturing, tourism, fishing, public water supplies, agriculture and numerous other uses; and
Whereas, Over 180 non-indigenous aquatic invasive species have been introduced to the Great Lakes; many of which are displacing native species, disrupting habitats and degrading natural, managed and agricultural landscapes, resulting in millions of dollars for control efforts each year; and
Whereas, Michigan has over 1 million registered boaters and many other recreational, commercial and industrial users of over 46,000 lakes and ponds and over 76,000 miles of streams in the state, many of which are impacted by aquatic invasive species; and
Whereas, Preventing the introduction of aquatic invasive species ultimately benefits the state of Michigan, and stopping the introduction of these species would eliminate the need of the state government, business, industry and citizens from employing costly methods to control and manage them; and
Whereas, Michigan has taken the lead in protecting the Great Lakes from aquatic invasive species from a number of pathways including ballast water, canals and waterways, organisms in trade, and recreational activities; and
Whereas, Spring marks the beginning of water-related recreational activities in Michigan; and
Whereas, Aquatic invasive species awareness is an important first step towards behavior change, which prevents the introduction and spread of aquatic invasive species; and
Whereas, Aquatic Invasive Species Awareness Week is an opportunity for government to join forces with business, industry, environmental groups, community organizations and citizens to take action against the introduction and spread of aquatic invasive species; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare June 11-19, 2011, as Aquatic Invasive Species Awareness Week in the state of Michigan; and be it further
Resolved, That all citizens must increase their understanding and awareness of aquatic invasive species and their ecological and economic impacts and take preventative measures to stop the spread and introduction of aquatic invasive species; and be it further
Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality, Michigan Department of Agriculture, Michigan Department of Natural Resources, Michigan Department of Transportation, Great Lakes Fishery Commission, Council of Great Lakes Governors, Michigan congressional delegation, and the Great Lakes Commission.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.
Reps. Dillon, Roy Schmidt, Geiss, Liss, Bauer, Howze, Hovey-Wright, Brunner, Rutledge, Melton, Ananich, Smiley, McCann, Irwin, Stapleton, Oakes, Townsend, Switalski, Stanley, Tlaib, Brown, Barnett, Kandrevas, Byrum, Bledsoe, Lipton, Olumba, Cavanagh, Hammel, Segal, Constan, Darany, Meadows, Durhal, Hobbs, Lindberg and Slavens offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 99.
A resolution to memorialize the Congress and the President of the United States to oppose any proposal that will eliminate the traditional Medicare program and to convert the Medicaid program to a block grant.
Whereas, It is well known that the Michigan economy has yet to fully recover from the economic crisis of the past decade and that the current state of the Michigan economy is fragile at best. In this fragile state, any legislation that would result in the elimination of jobs or an increase in cost for basic services would prove devastating; and
Whereas, The Republican state budget and tax plans recently passed through the Michigan Legislature will only increase the risk of the tenuous Michigan recovery failing. By increasing taxes on senior citizens and slashing resources for services they depend on, these actions have made life even more difficult for our older adults; and
Whereas, Rep. Paul Ryan, Chair of the United States House of Representatives Budget Committee, recently introduced a proposal to eliminate traditional Medicare for individuals under age 55 and replace it with a voucher system for purchasing private insurance. This measure would further burden seniors of this state who are already struggling with stretching their limited resources; and
Whereas, The congressional Republican plan could force at least 37,100 Michigan seniors to pay over $3.8 million more for annual wellness and more than 97,700 Michigan seniors would pay $55 million more for prescription drugs in 2012. The Congressional Republican plan to end Medicare will increase out-of-pocket health care costs for a typical 65 year-old Michigan senior by $6,880 in 2022 – more than double the cost under current law; and
Whereas, Furthermore, by turning the Medicaid program into a block grant program, funding for the program would be cut by $180 billion through 2020. The Congressional Republican plan could cost Michigan at least 49,200 private-sector jobs over the next five years. This drop off in private-sector jobs will put a greater burden on the state economy, and lead to a reduction in state revenue which could potentially cause a cut in already under funded public services; now, therefore be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we memorialize the Congress and the President of the United States to oppose any proposal that would eliminate the traditional Medicare program and to convert the Medicaid program to a block grant; and be it further
Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the President of the United States, 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 Government Operations.
Reps. Franz, Barnett, Darany, Hooker, LeBlanc, Liss, Poleski, Rogers, Slavens and Tyler offered the following concurrent resolution:
House Concurrent Resolution No. 30.
A concurrent resolution to declare June 11-19, 2011, as Aquatic Invasive Species Awareness Week in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, Michigan and its economy are defined by the Great Lakes and depend on their great abundance of freshwater for manufacturing, tourism, fishing, public water supplies, agriculture and numerous other uses; and
Whereas, Over 180 non-indigenous aquatic invasive species have been introduced to the Great Lakes; many of which are displacing native species, disrupting habitats and degrading natural, managed and agricultural landscapes, resulting in millions of dollars for control efforts each year; and
Whereas, Michigan has over 1 million registered boaters and many other recreational, commercial and industrial users of over 46,000 lakes and ponds and over 76,000 miles of streams in the state, many of which are impacted by aquatic invasive species; and
Whereas, Preventing the introduction of aquatic invasive species ultimately benefits the state of Michigan, and stopping the introduction of these species would eliminate the need of the state government, business, industry and citizens from employing costly methods to control and manage them; and
Whereas, Michigan has taken the lead in protecting the Great Lakes from aquatic invasive species from a number of pathways including ballast water, canals and waterways, organisms in trade, and recreational activities; and
Whereas, Spring marks the beginning of water-related recreational activities in Michigan; and
Whereas, Aquatic invasive species awareness is an important first step towards behavior change, which prevents the introduction and spread of aquatic invasive species; and

______
Rep. Poleski, 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 have discussed this matter with several people, including the Chamber of Commerce and Consumers Energy. I understand this bill’s motivation grows from some egregious audit practices, and I deplore those practices as thinly-disguised revenue grabs. However, I don’t think that exempting business-to-business transactions from escheat is the proper fix. If audit abuse is the problem, I prefer to address that than to exempt business-to-business unclaimed property from escheat to the State.”
House Bill No. 4003, entitled
A bill to amend 1947 PA 336, entitled “An act to prohibit strikes by certain public employees; to provide review from disciplinary action with respect thereto; to provide for the mediation of grievances and the holding of elections; to declare and protect the rights and privileges of public employees; and to prescribe means of enforcement and penalties for the violation of the provisions of this act,” by amending sections 1 and 14 (MCL 423.201 and 423.214), section 1 as amended by 1999 PA 204.
