Rabbi Ilana Baden, Rabbi of Temple Beth El in Battle Creek, offered the following invocation:

“Last week, our Jewish community embarked on our annual cycle of reading from the Torah—our sacred book of scripture. As we rolled the scroll back to the very beginning of the biblical narrative, we read from B’reishit, the portion that describes the Creation of the World. As part of this account, we were reminded of how Torah teaches us that on the sixth day, God created Adam and then Eve.

Whether we believe in the Torah’s words literally or figuratively, our sages have always encouraged us to look for the deeper truths that are revealed by our tradition’s wisdom. Therefore, the ancient rabbis taught: ‘Therefore Adam was created alone… for the sake of peace among people, so that one person should not say to his fellow: “My ancestor is greater than your ancestor.”’ In that spirit, we turn to the Source of Creation and ask God’s blessing upon this esteemed assembly as we anticipate today’s session.

M’kor HeChayim, O Source of Life: we thank You for the many gifts and blessings with which You have enriched our lives. At this moment, we are especially grateful to You for endowing us with discerning minds, feeling hearts, and sensitive spirits. We ask You, O God, to help us to be ever cognizant of our common humanity and shared roles in the work that we do in partnership with You. May we always recognize in one another the Divine Spark that You have implanted in each and every soul, so that we can be more open to each other as we discuss, deliberate, and determine courses of action that impact our community and our world. May You continue to grace us with insightfulness, as well as humility, as we continue on our life’s journey and confront the many issues that lie ahead of us.

Baruch atah, Adonai Eloheinu, Melech h-aolam, oseh ma-aseih v’reishit.

Blessed is the Eternal One, the Creative Source of all being. Amen.”

Motions and Resolutions

Reps. Schor, Brown, Durhal, Segal and Slavens offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 229.

A resolution to declare October 5, 2013, as Buy Nearby Get Caught Blue-Handed Day in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, Buy Nearby is an ongoing, year-round campaign, launched by the Michigan Retailers Association to benefit retail businesses and local communities across Michigan; and

Whereas, The campaign is intended to serve as a personal call to action, a symbol of pride and celebration, a rallying cry across Michigan, and an economic driver for our state; and

Whereas, Buying nearby is “Pure Michigan.” The Buy Nearby campaign has partnered with Pure Michigan, whose website acknowledges that “Whether we’re shopping for something specific, something to remind us of the good times we had in Michigan, or just shopping for the fun of it, there’s no limit to what we can find in Michigan stores. From custom-made goods to unbeatable bargains, this is where the shopping is always Pure Michigan”; and

Whereas, Retailing is responsible for 850,000 jobs in Michigan and if shoppers commit to buying nearby in Michigan, we can create more local jobs through increased local purchases; and

Whereas, Roughly half of every dollar used to Buy Nearby in Michigan stores, goes back into the Michigan economy, keeping more money within Michigan communities, which improves the vitality of Michigan’s local economies and their quality of life and directly supports our communities, our schools, and our infrastructure; and

Whereas, If Michigan consumers switched only one in ten of their purchases from out-of-state merchants to buying nearby, Michigan retail sales would increase by at least $750 million annually, providing a boost to our local and state economies; and

Whereas, Buy Nearby seeks to build upon and strengthen existing shop-local groups by expanding and elevating the buy-nearby-in-Michigan movement to a statewide campaign; and

Whereas, The year-round Buy Nearby campaign has designated October 5, 2013, as “Get Caught Blue-Handed Day,” a day to celebrate local retail businesses and their importance and to encourage consumers to “get caught” buying nearby; and

Whereas, Communities and retailers are encouraged to participate by offering special events, promotions, and prizes to promote local shopping and stimulate Michigan’s economy on Get Caught Blue-Handed Day; and

Whereas, Buy Nearby will demonstrate that buying nearby can be fun and rewarding to local communities and consumers; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare October 5, 2013, as Buy Nearby Get Caught Blue-Handed Day in the state of Michigan; and be it further

Resolved, That the people of the state of Michigan are encouraged to buy nearby on this day and every day.

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

The resolution was adopted.

Reps. Stanley, Durhal, Cavanagh, Smiley, Faris, Roberts, LaVoy and Hobbs offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 230.

A resolution to express support for the President of the United States’ and the U.S. Attorney General’s new policies to address our nation’s high incarceration rates.

Whereas, In August 2013, the Obama administration announced an important shift in the nation’s criminal justice policy. In order to correct unfairness in the system and reduce taxpayer spending on prisons, federal prosecutors will no longer list the quantities of illegal substances in their indictments for low-level drug cases. Defendants whose conduct did not involve violence, the use of a weapon, sale of drugs to minors, and who are not leaders of a criminal organization or have ties to gangs or cartels will benefit from the policy change; and

Whereas, Other morally and economically worthy criminal justice policies adopted by the Obama administration include increasing the use of drug-treatment programs as alternatives to incarceration and expanding compassionate release programs for elderly inmates whose crimes were not violent and who have served significant portions of their sentences; and

Whereas, The United States is in dire need of these new policies. Although the U.S. has only 5 percent of the world’s population, it has 25 percent of its prisoners. Since 1980, the American population has grown by about a third, but its prison rate has increased nearly 800 percent. Nearly half of the more than 219,000 inmates in federal prisons are there for drug-related crimes. As stated by U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, “too many Americans go to too many prisons for far too long and for no good law enforcement reason”; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we express support for the President of the United States’ and the U.S. Attorney General’s new policies to address our nation’s high incarceration rates; and be it further

Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the President of the United States, the United States Attorney General, and the members of the Michigan congressional delegation.

The resolution was referred to the Committee on Criminal Justice.

Reps. Pagel, Brown, Durhal, Heise, Howrylak, Kelly, Poleski, Segal and Slavens offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 231.

A resolution to declare October 2013 as Apple Month in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, Apples are one of the largest and most valuable fruit crops in Michigan; and

Whereas, The apple industry’s annual economic impact is estimated at $700 – 900 million; and

Whereas, Michigan is the third-largest apple producing state in the nation; and

Whereas, There are more than 9.2 million apple trees in commercial production, covering 36,500 acres on 850 family-run farms in Michigan; and

Whereas, Michigan apple growers produce more than 18 varieties of apples, available in grocery stores, supermarkets, farm markets, cider mills and U-picks; and

Whereas, Eating Michigan apples regularly can contribute to good health; and

Whereas, Michigan apple growers are expected to harvest 30 million bushels of apples in 2013; and

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare October 2013 as Apple Month in the state of Michigan.

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

The resolution was adopted.
