Our prayer today is the Franciscans’ traditional blessing:

“May God bless you with a restless discomfort about easy answers, half-truths, and superficial relationships, so that you may seek truth boldly and love deep within your heart.

“May God bless you with holy anger at injustice, oppression, and exploitation of people, so that you may tirelessly work for justice, freedom, and peace among all people.

“May God bless you with the gift of tears to shed for those who suffer from pain, rejection, starvation, or the loss of all that they cherish, so that you may reach out your hand to comfort them and transform their pain into joy.

“May God bless you with the enough foolishness to believe that you really can make a difference in this world, so that you are able, with God’s grace, to do what others claim cannot be done.”

Amen.

The President pro tempore, Senator Schuitmaker, led the members of the Senate in recital of the Pledge of Allegiance.

Senate Resolution No. 124.

A resolution to memorialize Michael Quinn.

Whereas, It is with deep sadness that we have learned of the passing of Michael “Mike” Lee Quinn, FAIA; and

Whereas, Today we honor the life and work of this great Michigander, with genuine respect for his distinctive accomplishments; and

Whereas, Mr. Quinn was a talented and esteemed architect, specializing in historic preservation, and who played an integral role in the 1987-1992 restoration as well as the 2014-2016 renewal of the Michigan State Capitol; and

Whereas, Throughout his long and prolific career, and as Fellow of the American Institute of Architects, Mr. Quinn was responsible for preserving countless historic buildings in Michigan and across the country, including Hill Auditorium at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, the Croswell Opera House in Adrian, and the former Wayne County Courthouse in Detroit; and

Whereas, Mr. Quinn began working in an architect’s office at the age of only thirteen; and

Whereas, In 1969, he graduated from the University of Michigan, obtaining a Bachelor of Science Degree in Architecture; and

Whereas, After spending two years in the Peace Corps in Barbados, he returned to his studies, and, in 1974, participated in the Denmark International Studies Program in Architecture at the University of Copenhagen; and

Whereas, That same year he earned a Master of Architecture degree from the University of Michigan; and

Whereas, Upon graduating, Mr. Quinn joined the architectural firm of Preservation Urban Design, Inc., where he worked with Richard “Dick” Frank, FAIA, an early leader in historic preservation in Michigan; and

Whereas, While employed at Preservation Urban Design, Inc., he also became acquainted with David Evans, another University of Michigan alumnus, who shared his passion for urban design and the revitalization of historic downtowns; and

Whereas, Together, in 1984, they founded Quinn Evans Architects, a two-person practice with offices in Washington, D.C., and Ann Arbor, Michigan; and

Whereas, The firm quickly gained a reputation as a preservation-based practice excelling in research, design authenticity, economic viability, and long-term sustainability; and

Whereas, This combination of important skills helped Quinn Evans Architects win the honor of serving as the implementing architects for two important facets of the Capitol’s 1987-1992 restoration including the interior restoration of the Governor’s Office, and the restoration of the Capitol’s envelope; and

Whereas, During the exterior project the Capitol’s iconic dome was stripped and repainted, and the badly deteriorated sandstone staircases were reconstructed; and

Whereas, Work in the Governor’s Office included conserving two original nineteenth century ceilings, locating and installing antique lighting fixtures, replicating period appropriate carpeting, and recreating the massive walnut doors into the governor’s personal office; and

Whereas, Upon its conclusion in 1992, the Capitol’s restoration won several national architectural and engineering awards, and was named a National Historic Landmark; and

Whereas, Quinn Evans Architects returned to the Capitol nearly twenty-five years later to continue the preservation of the Capitol’s exterior during the 2014-2016 Capitol renewal; and

Whereas, Chief among the accomplishments of this project was the recreation and installation of all the decorative elements missing from the dome, including hundreds of balls, acanthus leaves, and decorative scrolls; and

Whereas, The exterior sandstone was meticulously repointed, and approximately two hundred decorative stone modillions were replaced with exact replicas, sourced from the same sandstone formation as the Capitol’s original sandstone; and

Whereas, Under Mr. Quinn’s and Mr. Evans’ leadership, the firm of Quinn Evans Architects grew to be a national leader in historic preservation employing over 130 people with offices in Washington, D.C.; Ann Arbor and Detroit, Michigan; Baltimore, Maryland; and Madison, Wisconsin; and

Whereas, Throughout his long career, Mr. Quinn played a leading role in many important projects, including the Pope‑Leighey House by Frank Lloyd Wright, the City Opera House in Traverse City, the Wren Building at the College of William and Mary, the Milwaukee Federal Building and Old Courthouse, the Smithsonian Institution’s National Zoological Park, the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, the Peabody Conservatory of Music at Johns Hopkins University, the U.S. Treasury Building, the dome of the Colorado State Capitol, and the Dana Samuel Trask Building and the Glazier Building on the campus of the University of Michigan; and

Whereas, Mr. Quinn is survived by his wife, Pat Scheel; three children, David, Samuel, and Hannah Quinn; two step‑daughters, Jamarie Geller and Aubree Blumer; step-son-in-law, David Blumer; and his sisters, Patricia Ritchie (Dennis) and Jane Paccamonti (Dale); and

Whereas, Surviving him also are the hundreds of historic buildings across this state and the nation that he helped to preserve and restore for future generations; and

Whereas, His legacy will long live in these grand and glorious historic structures; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the Senate, That the members of this legislative body proudly memorialize Michael Quinn, and offer words of praise about his extraordinary contributions to the people of Michigan; and be it further

Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the Quinn family with our highest esteem and heartfelt gratitude.

Pending the order that, under rule 3.204, the resolution be referred to the Committee on Government Operations,

Senator Kowall moved that the rule be suspended.

The resolution was adopted.

Senators Ananich, Bieda, Booher, Conyers, Hansen, Hertel, Hood, Hopgood, Horn, Jones, Kowall, Pavlov, Proos and Rocca were named co‑sponsors of the resolution.

The Associate President pro tempore, Senator Hopgood, assumed the Chair.

Senate Resolution No. 125.

A resolution proclaiming February 2018, American Heart Month and February 2, 2018, as “Go Red for Women Day”.

Whereas, Cardiovascular diseases are the number one killer of women in the U.S.; and

Whereas, About 80 percent of cardiovascular diseases may be prevented; and

Whereas, Some risk factors such as blood pressure, smoking, cholesterol, and lack of regular physical activity can be controlled; and

Whereas, The American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women^® movement motivates women to learn about their family history and to meet with a healthcare provider to determine their risk for cardiovascular diseases and stroke; and

Whereas, “Go Red for Women” encourages women to take control of their heart health by knowing five numbers that can be life changing; and

1. Total Cholesterol

2. HDL (good) Cholesterol

3. Blood Pressure

4. Blood Sugar

5. Body Mass Index (BMI); and

Whereas, The American Heart Association is celebrating February 2018, as American Heart Month and promoting education and awareness by encouraging citizens to learn the warning signs of a heart attack and stroke; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the Senate, That we hereby proclaim February 2018, American Heart Month and February 2, 2018, as “Go Red for Women Day”; and be it further

Resolved, That we recognize the importance of the ongoing fight against heart disease and stroke and we urge all citizens to show their support for women and the fight against heart disease by commemorating this day by wearing the color red; and be it further

Resolved, That by increasing awareness, speaking out about heart disease, and empowering women to reduce their risk for cardiovascular disease and stroke, we can save thousands of lives each year.

Pending the order that, under rule 3.204, the resolution be referred to the Committee on Government Operations,

Senator Kowall moved that the rule be suspended.

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

Senator Schuitmaker asked and was granted unanimous consent to make a statement and moved that the statement be printed in the Journal.

The motion prevailed.

Senator Schuitmaker’s statement is as follows:

February 2nd is Go Red for Women Day and when I was first asked to support Go Red for Women, I had no idea how many women die from heart disease. It’s the No. 1 killer of women in our society. You’ve heard the statistics time and time again, but heart disease is the leading cause—worse than more forms of cancer combined. It is often easy to overlook, but the consequences are very real.

There are those of us here today who want to make a difference for the women in our lives. We’ve seen too many families suffer the harmful effects of heart disease that go undiagnosed and untreated. With the right information, education, and care, heart disease in women can be treated, prevented, and even wiped out. Through the efforts of the Go Red for Women campaign, more than a third of the participating women have lost weight, a third of women have talked to their doctors about heart plans, and 60 percent have changed their diets.

Thanks to the work of the American Heart Association and committed supporters like you, we will continue to see these and other numbers improve.

Senators Johnson, Proos, Robertson and Meekhof entered the Senate Chamber.

Senator Knezek offered the following resolution:

Senate Resolution No. 126.

A resolution to commemorate February 1, 2018, as Blue Star Mother’s Day.

Whereas, Blue Star Mothers of America, Inc., is a national organization of mothers whose sons and daughters serve honorably in the nation’s armed forces; and

Whereas, Blue Star Mothers of America, Inc., was founded in Flint, Michigan, in 1942; and

Whereas, The purposes and activities of Blue Star Mothers of America, Inc., include all of the following:

• Perpetuating the memory of the men and women who have served our country as members of the armed forces;

• Welcoming home returning veterans;

• Visiting wounded veterans in hospitals and rehabilitation centers;

• Assisting in veterans ceremonies;

• Attending patriotic rallies and meetings;

• Maintaining true allegiance to the government of the United States;

• Upholding the American institutions of freedom, justice, and equal rights;

• Caring for the unsupported mothers who gave their sons and daughters to the service of the nation; and

• Providing moral support for members.

; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the Senate, That the members of this legislative body commemorate February 1, 2018, as Blue Star Mother’s Day. We recognize the contributions that Blue Star Mothers of America, Inc., has made to our state and nation.
