House Resolution No. 239.

A resolution to declare March 2016 as Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Month in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a neurological disease of the central nervous system, affecting more than 2.3 million people worldwide, and of which the cause is still unknown; and

Whereas, The National Multiple Sclerosis Society has been committed to creating a world free of MS, increasing public awareness about the disease while mobilizing people and resources so that everyone affected by MS can live their best lives as we stop MS in its tracks, restore what has been lost and end MS forever; and

Whereas, Since 1946, the National Multiple Sclerosis Society has been relentlessly pursuing prevention, treatment, and a cure and has invested more than 920 million dollars in groundbreaking research; and

Whereas, Funds raised through the National Multiple Sclerosis Society fuel the efforts of more than 380 research projects globally, totaling nearly 54 million dollars annually at the best medical centers, universities, and other institutions throughout the United States and abroad. Because of this, MS research has never been more hopeful than it is today; and

Whereas, Discovering the cause, finding a cure, and preventing future generations from being diagnosed with MS is an important task that all Americans and Michiganders should support; and

Whereas, The state of Michigan recognizes the importance of finding the cause and cure of MS, a chronic and often devastating disease, and expresses its appreciation and admiration for the dedication that the National Multiple Sclerosis Society has shown toward a future free of MS; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare March 2016 as Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Month in the state of Michigan; and be it further

Resolved, That the members of this legislative body encourage all Michiganders to learn more about multiple sclerosis and what they can do to support individuals with MS and their families; and be it further

Whereas, Athletic trainers provide recognition and prevention of injuries, evaluation and treatment, rehabilitation, health care administration, and education and guidance; and

Whereas, The National Athletic Trainers Association represents and supports 35,000 members of the athletic training profession employed in professional sports, colleges and universities, high schools, clinics and hospitals, corporate and industrial settings, performing arts centers, and military branches; and

Whereas, Leading organizations concerned with athletic training and health care have joined together in a common desire to raise public awareness of the importance of the athletic training profession and to emphasize the importance of quality health care within the aforementioned settings; and

Whereas, Such an effort will improve health care for athletes and those engaged in physical activity and promote the athletic training profession; now, therefore, be it

A resolution to declare March 2016 as American Red Cross Appreciation Month in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, The American Red Cross was founded by Clara Barton on May 21, 1881, in Washington D.C. as a humanitarian organization to provide lifesaving services and programs; and

Whereas, The Red Cross, under charter from The United States Congress in response to the first Geneva Convention, serves as a link between military personnel and their families; and

Whereas, The Red Cross stands with their mission to assist in emergencies by deploying volunteers and utilizing donors to assuage human suffering through the help of over 700 chapters across the country; and

Whereas, The Red Cross upholds their founding values of humanity, impartiality, neutrality, independence, volunteer service, unity, and universality; and

Whereas, The Red Cross provides over 40 percent of the country’s and 75 percent of Michigan’s lifesaving blood supply through donors; and

Whereas, The Red Cross began their work in the northern part of Michigan through aiding in forest fire relief efforts; and

Whereas, The Red Cross has been a driving force in alleviating the anguish that the city of Flint has been facing with their lack of clean and drinkable water; and

Whereas, The Red Cross has aided over 41,500 households by providing more than 45,900 cases of water, 29,000 water filters, and 7,000 testing kits; and

Whereas, The Red Cross has opened five water resource sites within the city of Flint, staffed by a team of 76, over half of whom have been brought in from outside the state, that offer water and filters to the residents; and

Whereas, The Red Cross has mobilized 1,800 volunteers and partners to canvass all parts of the city of Flint to distribute water and filters; and

Whereas, The Red Cross has served over 14,000 meals and snacks to government and non-government partners helping in Flint; and

Whereas; The Red Cross has given hope to the residents of Flint who continue to face disaster and hardship; now, therefore, be it

We commend their efforts in the past and present, and for the work they will contribute to our communities in the future. We recognize and appreciate the Red Cross for its accomplishments in emergency response and disaster relief.

The Committee on Agriculture, by Rep. Lauwers, Chair, reported

House Resolution No. 230.

A resolution to declare March 5-12, 2016, as Agriculture Week in the state of Michigan.

(For text of resolution, see House Journal No. 19, p. 260.)

With the recommendation that the following substitute (H-1) be adopted and that the resolution then be adopted.

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

Substitute for House Resolution No. 230.

A resolution to declare March 13-19, 2016, as Agriculture Week in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, Each year, states across the nation recognize March as a time to celebrate the importance of food and agriculture as a significant contributor to the national economy; and

Whereas, As part of that celebration, Governor Rick Snyder has proclaimed March as Food and Agriculture Month in Michigan; and

Whereas, The Michigan food and agriculture industry contributes $101.2 billion annually to the state’s economy; and

Whereas, Michigan’s food and agriculture sector is one of the most diverse in the country with over 51,000 farms, 99 percent of which are family-owned, farming nearly 10 million acres of farmland and commercially producing more than 300 food and agricultural commodities. The state ranks first in the production of dry black and cranberry beans, begonias, blueberries, tart cherries, pickling cucumbers, Easter lilies, geraniums, low-fat ice cream mix, impatiens, petunias, and squash. We are a major dairy state and rank in the top 10 nationally for the production of apples, sugar beets, potatoes, and grapes. The industry supports farm markets across the state, produces hops that have helped to grow more than 135 breweries and has long supported the more than 120 wineries that call the Great Lakes State home; and

Whereas, Michigan’s food and agriculture system supports more than 920,000 jobs, roughly 22 percent of the state’s workforce; and

Whereas, One in every three rows of Michigan field crops is exported with a total value of $1.75 billion. The state’s top three export destinations are Canada, Mexico, and Japan; and

Whereas, Food processing is a large contributor to the state’s economy. Michigan is home to approximately 2,000 licensed food processors who employ more than 30,000 residents and generate nearly $25 billion in economic activity; and

Whereas, Michigan is home to the nation’s pioneer land-grant university, Michigan State University, where the Colleges of Agriculture and Natural Resources and Veterinary Medicine in partnership with the industry and the Michigan Department of Agriculture & Rural Development provide research, education, and support for the growth of production agriculture and agribusiness; and

Whereas, The month of March celebrates National Agricultural Week. Agriculture Day at the Capitol is March 16, Michigan State University hosts the State FFA Convention as well as Agriculture and Natural Resources Week, and Secretary of State Ruth Johnson has formed a partnership with Michigan FFA in promoting Agricultural Heritage License Plates; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of the Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare March 13-19, 2016, as Agriculture Week in the state of Michigan. We encourage all citizens to recognize and celebrate this momentous occasion.
