Pastor James Karsten, Lead Pastor of Cascade Fellowship Christian Reformed Church in Grand Rapids, offered the following invocation:
“Almighty and gracious God,
We come before You as we begin another day of deliberation and decision. This body has been given a great responsibility. Open our minds so that we may receive Your eternal wisdom. Open our spirits so that we may know Your leading and guidance. Keep each one here, elected officials, staff and volunteers, from pursuing personal power or prestige. Instead, may each person in this chamber represent the needs and concerns of the people of our great state.
God, we welcome Your presence and power into our conversations and our actions. Thank You Father, for each Representative here, for their willingness and desire to engage to make a positive difference. May we seek to listen to each other and work together to seek peace and prosperity for each and every person in the state of Michigan.
May all that is done this day be for Your greater honor and glory. Amen.”

Motions and Resolutions
Reps. Calley, Singh, Allor, Canfield, Crawford, Faris, Green, Greig, Howrylak, Hughes, Kelly, Marino, Maturen, Sneller, Webber, Wittenberg and Yaroch offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 221.
A resolution to declare January 2018 as Mentoring Month in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, The future of Michigan depends on the success of our state’s youth. Through insightful guidance and meaningful mentoring, we can help ensure that today’s youth realize their own personal value and potential and instill in them hope for a brighter tomorrow; and
Whereas, Today’s consistent, dependable, and trustworthy mentors are teaching core values to our future leaders; and
Whereas, Through mentoring, we provide meaningful opportunities to build relationships and retain our next generation both today and beyond; and
Whereas, Thousands of Michigan’s youths are waiting for mentors. By giving their time to a young person, a mentor can improve outcomes for Michigan youth and help prepare them for successful and productive lives; and
Whereas, During this month, we recognize and commend the efforts of mentoring programs throughout the state and raise community awareness of the importance of mentoring; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare January 2018 as Mentoring Month in the state of Michigan. We encourage residents to positively impact the lives of Michigan’s children by becoming a mentor.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.
Reps. Allor, Crawford, Griffin, Marino, Whiteford, Garcia, Canfield, Faris, Geiss, Green, Greig, Howrylak, Hughes, Kelly, Maturen and Wittenberg offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 222.
A resolution to express support for the Thunder Bay National Marine Sanctuary and oppose any reduction in its boundaries.
Whereas, The Thunder Bay National Marine Sanctuary is one of fourteen U.S. marine protected areas and the only one located in the Great Lakes. The 4,300-square-mile sanctuary holds nearly 100 known shipwrecks—covering more than 150 years of Great Lakes commerce—remarkably preserved in Lake Huron’s cold, fresh waters; and
Whereas, Jointly managed by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the state of Michigan, the Thunder Bay National Marine Sanctuary plays an important role in preserving our nation’s marine heritage and providing opportunities for future discovery, research, and education. In addition to shipwrecks, the sanctuary encompasses other important cultural and natural features related to maritime heritage including lifesaving stations, lighthouses, historic boats and ships, commercial fishing camps, and working ports. Geological evidence suggests undiscovered prehistoric archaeological sites may also exist; and
Whereas, The United States Secretary of Commerce is currently conducting a review of all designations and expansions of national marine sanctuaries within the last 10 years. Under Executive Order 13795, Implementing an America-First Offshore Energy Strategy, the President of the United States directed the review of the budgetary impacts of the costs of managing the sanctuary, the adequacy of consultations with affected state and tribal governments prior to designation, and opportunity costs associated with potential energy and mineral exploration; and
Whereas, Nearly 3,900 square miles of the Thunder Bay National Marine Sanctuary could be impacted by the federal review. Just 448 square miles when initially designated in 2000, the sanctuary was expanded in 2014 to cover 4,300 square miles. The expansion increased the number of protected shipwrecks and opened up new opportunities to study shipwreck sites and maritime history in America; and
Whereas, Thunder Bay National Marine Sanctuary attracts shipwreck divers and tourists and provides an economic boost to charter boat businesses, dive shops, bike rentals, outfitters, and travel and tourism companies. In past years, recreational activity associated with the sanctuary has provided $92 million in annual sales, $35.8 million in personal income to residents of coastal cities located near the sanctuary, and 1,704 jobs. In 2015, over 95,000 people visited the Great Lakes Maritime Heritage Center which is associated with the sanctuary; and
Whereas, Energy and mineral exploration is not appropriate within the sanctuary. Michigan has banned offshore drilling of oil in the Great Lakes since 1982. Congress enacted a temporary ban on offshore drilling in the Great Lakes in 2001 and made the federal ban permanent in 2005. The oil and gas drilling ban is necessary to protect this unique natural resource that provides drinking water and recreational opportunities and supports food production, business, and transportation for all U.S. citizens; and
Whereas, Maintaining the current boundaries of the Thunder Bay National Marine Sanctuary supports the rural coastal communities of northeast Michigan as well as protects the health and safety of millions of people who call the Great Lakes Basin home; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we support the Thunder Bay National Marine Sanctuary and oppose any reduction in its boundaries; and be it further
Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the President of the United States Senate, the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, the members of the Michigan congressional delegation, and the United States Secretary of Commerce.
The resolution was referred to the Committee on Tourism and Outdoor Recreation.
