Rev. Allen Vigneron, Archbishop of Archdiocese of Detroit in Detroit, offered the following invocation:
“Heavenly Father, in offering this prayer we are obeying Your command. For You directed Your prophet Jeremiah to instruct Your people, even while living in exile in Babylon, to ‘seek the welfare of [that] city, for in its welfare [they would] find [their] welfare.’ (Jr 29:7). And in Your name St. Paul charged Timothy to see that ‘supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all men, for rulers and everyone who has authority over us, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life, godly and respectful in every way’ (1 Tm 2:1-2).
And so, today, in this assembly we humbly pray.
In Your almighty power, come to the aid of all those to whom we, ‘the People,’ have entrusted the care of our common good. We pray for those who serve in our Federal government. We pray for those who guide and direct the welfare of this great State, two peninsulas of incomparable beauty, especially the governor and all others those in elected office.
We pray in particular today for the members of this distinguished House, who, while selected through election, hold their authority in trust from You. They, ‘grateful to Almighty God for the blessings of freedom, earnestly desire to secure these blessings undiminished [for] us all and [for] our posterity.’ In order to fulfill the responsibilities You have given them to protect and advance our wellbeing, they need Your help. Theirs is a heavy burden, and for this stewardship You will one day ask them to give an accounting. They are willing to bear this burden for the sake of their neighbors and all their fellow citizens. How could we not join in prayer for them with the full measure of our hearts’ ardor, in order to ask You, Lord God, to guide and sustain them?
And we conclude, O Lord, as is only right with praise to You for the blessings that are ours as citizens of this land: certainly for our prosperity and plenty, but above all for the guarantees and protections of the freedoms of which You, and no man, are the author. We thank You that we continue to be a nation dedicated to living and acting on the foundation of the self-evident truths that ‘that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by [You,] their Creator[,] with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.’ Strengthen this House, give the members wisdom and courage, to defend and advance these truths in their every word and action, so that in this State all of its citizens will do their part to see that America continues to be a great and free people, a light of liberty to the world.
For this we humbly pray, O heavenly Father.
Amen.”

Motions and Resolutions
Reps. Yanez, Cochran, Darany, Greig, Aaron Miller, Tedder, Durhal, Singh, Barrett, Chatfield, Canfield, Bizon, Dianda, Wittenberg, Iden, Plawecki, Irwin, Faris, Heise, Hovey-Wright, Kelly, LaVoy, Maturen, Pagan, Sarah Roberts and Schor offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 252.
A resolution to declare April 3-9, 2016, as Testicular Cancer Awareness Week in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, Testicular cancer is the leading cause of cancer in males age 15-35, although it can occur at any age; and
Whereas, Fifty-seven percent of cases of testicular cancer occur in men under the age of 45, an age in which young men are least likely to be thinking they are vulnerable to cancer; and
Whereas, One in 250 males will be diagnosed with testicular cancer in their lifetime; and
Whereas, One male in the United States is diagnosed each hour and one male dies each day from testicular cancer; and
Whereas, The rates of testicular cancer have been increasing for the past four decades; and
Whereas, The occupational incidence of testicular cancer amongst firefighters is almost 50% higher than the general population according to the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer; and
Whereas, Early detection and treatment at early stages leads to an almost 100% cure rate; and
Whereas, Late stage diagnosis leads to higher treatment burdens and unnecessary deaths; and
Whereas, Monthly testicular self-exams may lead to early detection and treatment; and
Whereas, Men cured of testicular cancer can add on average an additional 42 years of life; and
Whereas, Testicular cancer not only affects men but also affects their family and friends; and
Whereas, Testicular Cancer Awareness Week will encourage men to discuss testicular cancer with their healthcare provider; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare April 3-9, 2016, as Testicular Cancer Awareness Week in the state of Michigan. We honor all those we have lost and we redouble our efforts to beat testicular cancer once and for all. Together, with our advocates, medical researchers, health care providers, and all those who have been touched by cancer, let us resolve to continue our work toward a future where testicular cancer is no longer a killer.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
Rep. Yonker moved that consideration of the resolution be postponed for the day.
The motion prevailed.
Reps. Moss, Cochran, Faris, Greig, Hovey-Wright, LaVoy, Maturen, Pagan, Plawecki, Sarah Roberts, Singh and Wittenberg offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 253.
A resolution to declare March 22, 2016, as United Nations Water Day in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, The Universal Declaration of Human Rights was adopted on December 10, 1948, to prevent tragedies like those of the Second World War and strive for the security of humanity. Article 25 of the Declaration states that “Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family.” It is important that we, as citizens of a United Nations Member State, recognize this important day to reaffirm our commitment to helping others and working together for a more tranquil and healthy world; and
Whereas, United Nations Water Day recognizes the importance of clean water as a human right and integral to the global economy and international security. Nearly 1.5 billion laborers around the world work in water-related sectors. The theme of this year’s Water Day, “water and jobs,” highlights the need for clean water access for cities and farmlands; and
Whereas, March 22 has been celebrated as United Nations Water Day since 1993. The United Nations serves people of all backgrounds and is committed to upholding the values of human rights; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare March 22, 2016, as United Nations Water Day in the state of Michigan. It is with great honor and appreciation that we take this time to join other states and nations in expressing our commitment to the availability of water; On this day, we will celebrate and honor the noble goal of pure water in our state, our country, and our world.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.
Reps. Lucido, Cochran, Greig, Plawecki, Sarah Roberts and Singh offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 254.
A resolution to urge the U.S. State Department to deny the Plains LPG presidential permit application for the pipelines under the St. Clair River.
Whereas, Plains LPG Services purchased seven pipelines located beneath the St. Clair River and Detroit River in 2012 and requested that the U.S. State Department approve presidential permits to connect, operate, and maintain pipeline facilities at the international boundary between the United States and Canada; and
Whereas, The State Department issued one permit for the pipeline located under the Detroit River and one permit for the six pipelines under the St. Clair River in 2014. When Plains LPG discovered that the former owner had a previously unknown permit to transport crude oil through two of the pipelines, the State Department rescinded the permit for the pipelines under the St. Clair River and restarted the review process; and
Whereas, The original public comment period for the revised St. Clair River pipeline permit closed on February 24, 2016, but was re-opened on March 15, 2016, when many people informed the State Department that they had concerns about the proposed permit and had only became aware of the application after the comment period closed; and
Whereas, An oil spill in the Great Lakes would have catastrophic consequences for the environment and economy of Michigan, surrounding states, and Canada. A spill would be particularly devastating due to the challenges of responding to an oil spill in fresh water or under ice; and
Whereas, The 2015 Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force (MPPTF) recommended against the transportation of heavy crude oil through pipelines under the Great Lakes and issued a series of proposals for how the state could improve its oversight of pipelines generally, including recommendations to develop better information, response plans, public awareness, and agency coordination. The MPPTF Report was prepared in response to the Enbridge Line 6B rupture in 2010 and renewed attention to the Enbridge Line 5 pipeline running near the Straits of Mackinac; and
Whereas, The Plains LPG pipelines under the St. Clair River could potentially be even more dangerous than Enbridge Lines 5 and 6B. Two of the six lines under the St. Clair River are nearly 100 years old, and the permit, if approved, would allow for the transportation of crude oil; and
Whereas, Not only could the rupture of these pipelines lead to disastrous consequences for agriculture, fishing, irrigation, electric generation, manufacturing, and wildlife, but the location of the Plains LPG pipelines poses a serious threat to the region’s drinking water. The main drinking water intakes for Detroit and many other communities are located downstream of the pipelines, putting the public health of millions at risk; and
Whereas, A pipeline owned by Plains LPG’s parent company ruptured due to corrosion and discharged more than 100,000 gallons of crude oil in Santa Barbara, California, in May 2015. The company was unaware of the rupture for more than two hours which delayed coordinated efforts to limit the spill’s impact on the area; and
Whereas, The State Department should not approve any permits that would allow for the transportation of crude oil through the Great Lakes, particularly if the company requesting the permit has a history of failing to properly respond to oil spills; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we urge the U.S. State Department to deny the Plains LPG presidential permit application for the pipelines under the St. Clair River; and be it further
Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the U.S. Secretary of State and the members of the Michigan congressional delegation.
The resolution was referred to the Committee on Energy Policy.
