Rep. Eric Leutheuser, from the 58th District, offered the following invocation:
“God of peace, You have taught us that in returning and rest we shall be saved, in quietness and in confidence shall be our strength; By the might of Thy spirit lift us, we pray Thee, to Thy presence, where we may be still and know that Thou art God.
You are the life of all, the light of the faithful, the strength of those who labor, and the sure repose of the departed; We thank Thee for the blessings of the day.
We thank You for the opportunity to serve our state and our neighbors. We ask for Your wisdom as we do so, and that we may walk in Your paths until our next meeting.
I ask these things in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen.”

Representative Noble served the people of this state, especially his constituents in the Twentieth District in Wayne County, with the utmost integrity over the last two years; and
Whereas, Representative Noble’s commitment to the well-being of his community long predates his time in Lansing. Over the last 20 years, he has put his degree from Francis Marion College and his Master of Divinity from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary to good use as the lead pastor of the Main Street Baptist Church and the senior pastor at the Praise Baptist Church, a church he founded; and
Whereas, Representative Noble has been an asset to the House of Representatives since his election in 2016. He has been a valuable member of the committees on Education Reform, Health Policy, and Transportation and Infrastructure and has served as the vice chair of the Families, Children, and Seniors Committee. He has sponsored legislation on a variety of topics, including public acts which repealed outdated laws and targeted predatory pyramid schemes; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we offer this expression of tribute to commend and thank the Honorable Jeff Noble for his notable contributions to this legislative body and to our state; and be it further

Representative Zemke sat on the Appropriations subcommittees on Community Colleges and Joint Capital Outlay as minority vice-chair, as well as on the Education and School Aid subcommittees, demonstrating an interest and passion for education issues. His participation in thoughtful deliberation enhanced the Education Reform Committee, where he served as minority vice chair. He also contributed valuable input as a member of the Elections and Ethics and the Financial Services committees; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we offer this expression of tribute to commend and thank the Honorable Adam Zemke for his notable contributions to this legislative body and to our state; and be it further

In a variety of professional roles, he worked on issues and campaigns reflecting his commitment to free market principles; and
Whereas, Representative Glenn threw himself into the people’s work when he arrived in Lansing, unafraid to tackle complex issues such as energy policy. After serving as vice chair of the Energy Policy Committee in his first term, he chaired the committee during the 2017-2018 session and continued his advocacy for expanded energy choice. He also served on the Commerce and Trade; Military and Veterans Affairs; Tax Policy; Communications and Technology; and Insurance committees. Representative Glenn also welcomed the responsibility of serving as an Associate Speaker Pro Tempore; now, therefore, be it

Whereas, Representative Tedder’s tenure in the Michigan House of Representatives has been well served by his business acumen and leadership. During his tenure, he served on numerous committees that addressed issues in taxes, workforce and talent development, communications and technology, energy, education, and regulatory reform. Chair of the Committee on Tax Policy and vice chair of the Health Policy Committee and the Workforce and Talent Development Committee, Representative Tedder has worked tirelessly to make Michigan a better place to live. He worked to lower the income tax liability for Michiganders, promote business growth, and reform the laws governing health care facilities and providers. These past two years, he has admirably served as Associate Speaker Pro Tempore; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we offer this expression of tribute to commend and thank the Honorable Jim Tedder for his notable contributions to this legislative body and to our state; and be it further

Whereas, Birds are present in every environment including urban, rural, wetland, and prairie and are an ever-present reminder that nature is all around us; and

Comments and Recommendations
Rep. Lauwers moved that the following remarks be printed in the Journal.
The motion prevailed.
Rep. Kesto:
“Thank you Mr. Speaker, never fear Klint Kesto is here.
I’ll tell you a little story, you know many people were involved in politics, and back in 2011, I shared an office back at the Wayne County Prosecutors Office with a guy named Paul Cusick, another gentleman named Tommy Nafso, and the third person who was right next door to us was Prentis Edwards. At that time we were all thinking what on Earth are we going to do here. It’s, you know, we’re in Wayne County Prosecutors Office, not making much money. Everyone else is doing big things. As we used to call it, making a move. You know, you’ve seen the westside W, this is upside down. It’s the M, making the move. So, Prentis Edwards, I don’t know if you know him, he’s a judge now, Third Circuit Court. Well he made his move. Paul Cusick, he’s a judge now, but at that time he went to the attorney general’s office. He made his move. So he says to me, what are you going to do now. I said, I don’t know, what the heck am I going to do? He says, well, there’s a new district, it’s the 39th district, it used to be Lisa Brown’s seat. Now she’s Oakland County Clerk, and it’s going to be open. Why don’t you run for that seat? I said, I don’t know anything about running a campaign, I don’t know anything about politics. He says, well let me ask you a few questions, where are you at on this issue? Where are you at on this issue? Where you at on this issue? He says, well, you’re definitely conservative, so run for office. I said alright, that makes sense. So, I put together a plan, a strategy, and the following February, filed in Oakland County, 2012. Open seat, big primary, six people. Little did I know, that it’s also, even though it was redistricted, it was still going to be a competitive seat. But, we ran, we had a good plan, and executed on that plan. I had help from Paul Cusick, Judge Cusick, Judge Prentis Edwards, Tommy Nafso, who is now in private practice, Judge David Law, who ended up getting appointed. It was just a tremendous experience. Part of it was becoming the first from the Chaldean, Christian Chaldean Community, being elected to a state office. It was a tremendous accomplishment for the whole community, and that’s why I had decided to run as well. Be part of that reinvention of Michigan, but also be a voice to that community, that minority community, that never had any representation. I think everybody in this room understands that because you have a population in your district that always wants representation, but they don’t always have it. You are their voice, don’t ever forget it. Just because maybe you don’t look exactly like them, maybe you make a little bit more, a little bit less than they do, you’re still that person’s voice.
I want to thank my family, my father, my mother, my brothers and sisters, that all helped me on that campaign during that time. It was very hard work. We still talk about how many doors we knocked. Thousands and thousands of doors. This is probably the second most nervous speech I’m giving on the house floor. I’ll take you back to around December of 2014. At that time Jase Bolger was speaker, Jim Stamas was the floor leader. A little thing about politics, you got to figure out when you cut your deal. Sometimes the issues never have anything to do with each other, as many of you know, especially in leadership. Well, I kind of cut a deal alright, to, how about you let me propose to my girlfriend at the time on the house floor? Sitting at this microphone right here, and had some folks recording. So, we talk about accomplishments, one of them was marrying Delena, who’s sitting right here next to me. Right here proposing on this house floor. Many of you were here, it was exciting. I think I was the first person to do it, hopefully some more of you, I know there’s some single folks in here. So, you know, meet each other, use this microphone. From that experience of being engaged on the house floor, to getting married while a state representative in 2015. Got engaged in ’14, married in ’15, had my first beautiful baby, Ava, in 2016, my next beautiful handsome son in 2017. We’re not pregnant this year, so we’re going to hold off for a minute. We talk about accomplishments in the house and I think part of it is meeting great people. I took the commitment and gave it to the governor that I will increase the population. I know many of you are doing that, Lee Chatfield, Speaker Leonard. In fact Speaker Leonard and I, we share an interesting bond, our children are only a couple of weeks apart. So, you know, it was such a joy at that time, even though they’re two weeks apart, the whole month I think, and the whole summer and fall was exciting because we both had little baby girls.
I came in and wanted to thank my staff that have been working for me. Brian Pierce, Jim Hunter, we used to call him ‘Catfish,’ I think there was a picture of Jim Hunter for some of you sports fans. Eric Singer, I gave that young man such a tough time, but boy, he was good. Krystal Yaldoo, the interns, so many of them, we have Jordan Miller that’s in my office, Majd Zuma helped me on my campaigns, Joe Tinpan, Morgan Pickering just had a baby and she was great, Richie Ferron I’m sure you’ll see him, he’s with one of the health care associations, Celine, and anyone else that I’ve missed they were great in the office. They did a great service to the constituents and to me, running the office, in terms of public policy. Had some great gentleman and ladies that worked for me. You can tell that they’re in great spots. Doug Maines, was part of the committees that I was on. Aaron Van Langevelde, he’s here still doing great work. Hassan Beydoun, Bill Stone, these are some sharp, sharp minds, and they’re going to add one more with Allisyn, Allisyn Mattice. Even though she’s only worked with me a couple weeks, whoever could scoop her up on their committee, I’d recommend you do that. The clerks in the committees were also great, we had a great time, some laughs, some tears. The lobbyists, somebody mentioned that they are a necessary evil, was that you Rep. Kelly, they are a necessary evil.
You got to figure out who your friends are in this body, by the way, whether they’re in the hallway or over here. Some are just your friends when they see you. Some, you will be long term friends, but you have to figure out how that relationship works. I can’t give you that advice, because everyone is different. Just like they are in this room, you have to figure out who your friends are. We come as a body, not to bicker and fight, but to do good policy. Everybody has good intentions.
I had my first bill with Andrea LaFontaine, from Macomb County. She got married and moved to Oakland County, so I don’t know what we’d call her now. It’s Representative Andrea LaFontaine, from Oakland County. I had a great genocide bill. The genocide bill that teaches our children. Genocide was very important to me because I come from the Chaldean Community, and at that time there was essentially a genocide going on with ISIS and the Christians in Iraq. You know, it may not affect all you folks in all of your areas, but take it like this, if we don’t teach our children today, the harms of the past will continue to be harms of the future and the tragedies of the past will continue. Whether it’s with genocide and education, or anything else, so let’s learn from our past and let’s continue to make good policy.
I’m probably the only person, maybe ever, that has served here, that had two nations come after him as a target. From that genocide bill, I had the country of Turkey, come down and send their consulate general to lobby against the bill. Although he came into my office randomly and unexpected, after I told my staff to tell him I’m a little bit busy right now, two minutes later he was in my office, sat down with him, and told me that everything I knew about in history was actually wrong, and he had a different idea how that genocide went. Then after I was helping out the Republic of China, which is Taiwan, a capitalistic economy, then I had the Peoples Republic of China send me a scathing letter about what the heck am I doing even introducing a resolution to acknowledge the freedom and independence of the Republic of China, which is Taiwan. I know some of the folks in this room that co‑sponsored, got that letter too.
To the governor, we have been great partners. The Lieutenant Governor, I wish you the best. I appreciate everything that they’ve done. Attorney General Bill Schuette, stay on duty. Our Secretary of State, Ruth Johnson, she’ll be in the senate. To those coming in new, the governor, attorney general, secretary of state, LG. It’s going to be a lot of work for everybody next year, but that doesn’t mean we get into gridlock. We had great speakers, Jase Bolger, JB, Kevin Cotter, Speaker Leonard, and of course our future speaker, wherever he is, the Chats, Chatfield. All great leaders. All very sharp and astute. I think they deserve the position and the respect.
A lot of people I came in with, I remember these late nights, and we’ll have them again, and I’m going to be calling you, Representative Mike McCready. We used to talk at 3 or 4 in the morning driving the same way, hey you still awake, hey wake up! Because it would be so late and so cold. Some old guys, that we had a crew, Aric Nesbitt, Brandt Iden, Frank Foster, and even a newcomer that’ll be here, Matt Hall. I still remember, I hope he’s listening, Frank Foster, we were in DC for a conference, and our Uber got pulled over, because it made an illegal u-turn. So, we look at each other and we say let’s get out of the car. Well, that wasn’t a bright idea as the police officer pulled out his gun, his revolver, and said get your A double, dollar signs, hockey sticks, whatever they say, back in the car. We said look, this isn’t our car, go get that guy. No, you get back in the car. It was fun.
Some great representatives, I still remember, Dr. Bizon, I know he’s here. I had surgery, and he was so gracious enough, he would change the bandages for me. Because Tuesday to Thursday I couldn’t have a nurse over here to change my packing because I couldn’t do it myself, obviously. Jeff Farrington, who is my mentor, and I know his wife is here, we certainly have the better Farrington, but boy he was a good guy. I still think of the lame duck times, and I’m trying to tell my wife how I’m going to do everything that Jeff Farrington did during lame duck. I haven’t had the guts to do it just yet, maybe I have to ask him.
Of course, we had those that we lost, they were great people, we’ve got to remember how short life is. Remember that any one of us can go at any time. I had some great vice chairs, by the way, and they’re both going to be in the Senate. Pete Lucido, gosh the red headed Italian, firing up Macomb County, Oakland County, Wayne County, Let It Rip, Jesus you’re doing a great job. Keep it up, fire away. And Stephanie Chang, probably one of the greatest partners, one of the greatest people, that I ever worked with. I don’t know if she’s here. You know, it’s not always that you work on the other side, but I’ll tell you what, one person that if I could work as her staff, if she’s hiring, I’ll work for you for free if you have the position. Where’s Rep. Afendoulis, he’s so gracious, he let my wife sit behind me. But if there’s, somebody who makes impressions, by the way, it’s the lame duck time, make sure you get one of those. Reps. Runested and Shane Hernandez, remember to get your groceries, and come back home. You know what they come with.
To my Oakland County people, let’s keep working, lets kind of, I know my colleagues on the other side won’t like this, but let’s keep working and get it more purple than the other way. Rep. Kathy Crawford, Howrylak, McCready, and the rest. To the press, I can’t do the point necessarily, like our president does, I’m not as tall, but thanks for always calling me and getting me at least one quote of the year. And Tim Skubick, wherever he is, he’s never around when you need him. He always corners you. The reason I bring his name up is, my dad wasn’t born here in this country, he came here in ’77, so when he hears about Tim Skubick, it’s always Scooby-Doo, how’s Scooby-Doo doing? How’s Scooby-Doo? I love Scooby-Doo.
The future is going to be bright for everyone in this room. Just make sure that you stand up for what’s right. You stand up for your constituents. You don’t have to tailor or cow-toe to anything, except whatever you believe in.
The last thing I’ll say, is that, it’s been a pleasure and an honor, and if there is ever anything I can do, for anybody, whether it be through myself, individually, my community, or anything that you need, feel free to call me. You know how to get ahold of me. I want to thank again, my beautiful wife, sitting next to me. You know what old Jack Burton says, you know when the going gets tough, and the earthquakes start rumbling, and the thunder comes through, just stand and look at it, and say hey, give me your best shot.
Thank you all, God bless you, look forward to working with you in the future.”
Rep. Theis:
“When I first started this amazing journey, people who had traveled it before told me how fast the time would go, but until I lived it, I didn’t really get that. Light speed legislating - not just for lame duck – it applies to all of each session!
This isn’t now, nor was it ever, about us. Gratitude overwhelms me when I think about the great privilege we have all been given for the opportunity to serve in this honorable body. To this day I choke up when I think about it. What an indescribable blessing.
To say that it has been a pleasure to serve with you, and with those that left after my first session, doesn’t do justice to the meaning. Ray Franz, Jeff Farrington, and Tony Forlini are already missed.
‘Honor’ is insufficient to express the full emotion involved. I’ve learned many of your stories, had the true blessing of getting to know you and some of your families, your struggles, and unfortunately had to say goodbye to some of you way too early. Julie, Pete, and John - your absence is felt. Your service to this great state is unquestioned, and you are sorely missed.
We are here to do the business of the State, representing people who come from different areas and who have very different ideas about what good policy looks like. Many in Southeastern Michigan have some very different opinions about the direction we as a state should take as compared those in the U.P., or in MY community. That doesn’t give any of us evil intent, but it does make us vote differently - and yet we are all still representing the will of our communities to the best of our ability. The process, though not perfect, works quite well. It is what our founders imagined, even if they couldn’t foresee Facebook or Twitter, and the corresponding ‘likes,’ “followers” or ‘trolls.’
I hear often about how frustrated people are with politics saying it has never been this divisive. First, I remind them that one of our founding fathers died in a duel with another founding father. It has always been divisive, but then I try to remind them that in spite of all its flaws, we live under the best government devised by the minds of men in the history of the world.
No one else in history has ever had the freedom we’ve had, freedom to choose our life, freedom to choose our employment, or even the ability to improve our lot in life. What an incredible blessing that is! People in other countries are trying to figure out how to feed their children, and can’t even imagine going to a grocery store and choosing what they want to eat that evening. They wouldn’t dream of telling their children they can hope to have a better life. America is blessed. Yes, we have poverty, yes, everyone would like there to be a time when we can truthfully say we don’t, yet people of good intentions still have very different ideas for how to get to a place where we have a solution to that issue. That doesn’t make us evil, it shows we have different ideas.
The people of this state are a hardy bunch. We survived a decade where, when the rest of the country pulled out of the recession, and we just soldiered on through it. In 2010, we started to see light at the end of the tunnel. Some of us attribute that to our governor, and some of us credit that to our president, but all of us appreciate that our kids were able to find jobs not too far from home. All of us wanted our kids to be able to afford their housing, and able to have a job they loved. We want them to be able to pay off their college loans, because odds are now pretty good that they’ve got significant debt.
My biggest regret is that we haven’t successfully solved our auto insurance problem. Our current system isn’t working and I believe it to be the biggest hurdle in Michigan’s comeback. This system hurts the poorest among us the most. We need to set aside the affiliations and really look at the numbers and cost drivers - and transform those. The senior from my new district that called me a few weeks ago telling me he had to choose between food and medicine and his auto insurance, should never happen. He was calling to let me know he’d chosen the food, and he now relied on friends and family to get him around. Uber hasn’t made it to his town yet.
I’m 42. That’s not my age, it’s my district number. For my fellow nerd friends, it’s the ‘Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything’ as determined by the author of the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. I wasn’t able to convince my colleagues that applied to me, but nonetheless, in a few days someone else will be 42, and she will have many of the same friends I had while that was my title. We are not here for the relationships we build here - though they are essential. We are here for our folks back home, and we serve at their pleasure. We do well to remember the term ‘public service.’
Speaker Leonard, you showed us what Leadership should look like, combining your strength with respect for our position representing our district. Floor Leader Lauwers, I want to say again how glad I am that you - and not me - won that election. I was proud to serve under your leadership as well. And Joelle, thank you for keeping this herd of cats all going the right direction.
To Clerks Randall and Brown - your institutional knowledge and unflappably positive nature are a true inspiration. I’ve never met two people more willing to serve the public with a great attitude day in and day out than the both of you. The state is blessed to have you serve.
Chief Dickson and the entire crew, you are all amazing, and it has been an honor to get to know you. To the facilities crew at the HOB, thank you for always being there to help with a smile and a get-it-done attitude. There will be more pumpkin rolls on the way as soon as I can set the bills down long enough to bake them.
To my Republican colleagues and my family, I will thank you individually, but THANK YOU ALL.
Courage…. Representative Love and Representative Santana that is what I think of when I think of you. We don’t often agree on politics, but it is an honor be your friend. And I honestly don’t think I’ve ever met anyone more kind or happy day after day than you, Jon Hoadley. You are a great friend as well.
To my amazing staff, Jenny, Jeff, Matt, Hanna, and especially Meghan - thank you for working so hard to help me keep on track. There is simply no way we legislators can be successful without a great team.
I’m just going across the rotunda. My new title is 22 - or, just Lana. I hope to be back to this illustrious chamber regularly. So it’s not goodbye, it’s until next time, thank you for all you do for the good people of Michigan.”

General Reflections
In most cases don’t walk, run when you hear:
-Beware of the words ‘technical fix’ or ‘clean up’ bill.
-Another ‘tool in the toolbox.’
-No known opposition.
-The vote out of committee was unanimous, except Johnson.
Final thoughts
-We are but in many ways insignificant and temporary placeholders, privileged to hold the public trust in a way that few others will have the privilege to hold.
-Never more evident than when Rep. Durhal delivered a 38 minute and 45 second floor speech, with me in the Chair and couldn’t find one compelling reason to include me in his speech; he claims, however, that I was coming up around the 40 minute mark.
While I do not know where the future lies in the immediate, I am certain that in one capacity or another I will continue to stay engaged in the political process and pay special attention to an institution that I have come to cherish so dearly. So, in the words of one of my favorite celebrity figures, the Governator, let me suffice to say that: I’ll Be Back!”
______
The Speaker called Associate Speaker Pro Tempore Tedder to the Chair.
Rep. Zemke:
“You know, up until 6th grade, I was always last. Last in line, last to get my seating assignment, last to be paired off for kickball in gym. That is, until Trevor Zhou showed up and suddenly I was second to last.
Apparently today I am 6th?
I’ve spent 6 years listening to these speeches and have often wondered what I would say, if I even decided to say anything, and who I would forget to mention. I also wondered if I hold the year’s record for ‘as long as John Olumba.’ Turns out, Fred Durhal beat me to it.
This place has been a very interesting place to grow up. Like only a small number of us, I came here a 20-something. Where many come here after spending long careers elsewhere, myself, Moss, Knezek, LaFontaine, Foster, Durhal, Guerra, Chatfield, Leonard, Camilleri, Hammoud, Jones and others all came here after a shorter time in the ‘real-world,’ at least relatively speaking. I have to say that it is very much unlike any other place I’ve worked and an experience I’m really glad I took part in at a younger age. If for no other reason than my metabolism is still good enough to burn off the freshman 15 that seems to fluctuate every two years but never really leave; I’m also happy that I managed to keep most of the hair I came in with.
I know we all have been asked this question by constituents in our districts ‘would you do it all over again?’ I am proud to unequivocally say ‘absolutely,’ even despite being exclusively in the minority. I really hope everyone here has an opportunity to serve the public in both the minority and majority. Both provide us with a piece of ‘humble pie’ that serves us well from time to time.
There are a couple of events that inspire my answer:
I will never forget the night when my predecessor, a Republican named Rick Olsen, came up to my desk while we were waiting for bills to be finished so that we could vote on them. He said ‘pay attention tonight, this type of thing doesn’t happen very often.’
That night was less than 6 months into my first year and those bills were to expand Medicaid and create Healthy Michigan.
I personally knew about as much about health insurance as any healthy millennial at the time (meaning not very much), but would come to understand the impact of that legislation months later while campaigning for our friend Theresa Abed. It was a hot summer day and the doors were so far apart in the area we were canvassing that the manager and I were driving between them. We pulled up to a small brick bungalow in the middle of some cornfields, with a rusty Jeep in the dirt drive. I hopped out and ran up to the front door, just in time to be greeted by a gentleman in his 60s. I told him why I was there, handed him a piece of her literature and figured I would be on my way before asking if he had any questions for her. As he flipped the lit over, something caught his eye and he asked ‘Healthy Michigan - did she vote for it?’
Now, we have all been to doors where only one topic comes up and in my experience, they usually don’t end well. Being that ‘Obamacare’ as some of you have eloquently termed it - wasn’t quite as popular at the time - the man’s question gave me pause.
I answered him honestly ‘yes, she did, sir’ and started to explain a bit. He cut me off and said ‘let me tell you something: I’m a machinist. I work for a small shop and a few months ago, I couldn’t see straight and was scrapping so much material that my boss told me the company would pay to get my vision checked. I didn’t have health insurance. That trip to the doctor showed me that the reason I couldn’t see was because there was a tumor in my head and it was pushing against the back of my eyes, causing my vision to blur. Thank God it wasn’t cancerous. I went back to work afterwards because I didn’t have the money to get it taken out. Then one day I heard an advertisement for this Healthy Michigan program. So I applied, found out that I qualified, and had that tumor taken out. It saved my job. It saved my life. And if your friend voted for it, I’ll always vote for her.’
True story. Blew me away
I’ll also never forget May 22nd, 2014. It could be because it was the night I got robbed in Detroit, or the night that Kelly ended her 5 month ‘cooling off’ period after I may have said something semi-obnoxious during our first encounter. It was also the night that movement on this floor literally stopped and we all clapped following the passage of the bankruptcy legislation that changed the trajectory of Detroit and subsequently, all of Michigan.
Whenever I am asked ‘would I do it over again, knowing what I know now’ I can’t help but think of these events.
Democracy was alive and well in those moments. We as a people desperately need more of them.
Government can and should be the force for good for all of the seniors who are trying to figure out how to pay for their home, auto insurance and prescription drug bills. For those who thought that they were doing pretty well until they figured out that they had to choose between saving for their kid’s college education or putting that kid in daycare. And especially for those who don’t even have any boot straps by which to pull themselves up.
Please don’t forget that these problems are very real, and please act on fixing them.
Let’s get to some thank yous. God knows I owe a lot of people more than thanks for all that you’ve done.
How am I doing on time, Fred?
I am so proud to have been elected by the people of my hometown to serve them here for the past 6 years. To all of you in Washtenaw County, and especially all of you who come to coffee hours and ‘Ales with Adam;’ thank you. You’ve bestowed me an honor that I will never forget.
I would be remiss if I didn’t start off with my ‘bro-row’ colleagues, Durhal and Greimel. You’ll always be my brothers. I love you more than you’ll ever know.
I want to apologize to Leader Singh, Floor Leader Greig, Jack Schmitt and Nathan Triplett for all of the problems we’ve caused you. It really was a terrible idea to let us sit together.
Thank you to all of the Democratic policy staff members I’ve worked with, especially Coffiann Hawthorne, Joe Clark, Emily Schwarzkopf, Rachel Richards, Cynthia Paul and Dan Feinberg. A special shout-out to Dan, who has both been a huge pain in my side and also gained a ton of my respect. Your words on literacy will never be forgotten and really made 4822 what it was.
I would also be remiss if I didn’t add in Republican staff members Stephanie Bogema, Jake McLaughlin, Pete Wills, Eric Griggs, Matt Schueller, and especially Jason Mancini. Jason: Feinberg drove me more nuts than you did most of the time. Thank you to John Roberts, Tyler Sawher, Robbie Jameson, Darrin Ackerman, Michelle Lange, Karen McPhee and Sally Durfee.
You all are incredibly intelligent, talented individuals and our government is better because of your service.
Chief Dickson, Fawn, Don, Jon, Loren, Tadd, Geoffrey, Brian, Scott, Randy, and Chris - thank you for always keeping us safe.
Clerks Randall and Brown, and all of you who do the tireless work in committee and after we leave session: thank you.
To everyone in the House Business Office: I cannot apologize enough for constantly turning in SOCC schedules late. Thank you everything you do.
Mary Ann Cleary, Bethany Wicksall and Samuel Christensen: I took five complex mathematics courses in college and still feel like an idiot around you. You are amazing.
Thank you, Alice. I literally could not function around here without what you do.
Thank you to Joelle, Ryan and Sarah: ditto to my prior sentiments about Alice.
Thank you to our band: Todd Cook, Jason Ellenberg, Cortney Goddard, Hillary Kipp, and Katie Carey. I wouldn’t want to have gone through the 2016 election with anyone else.
Brian and Brad, Josie Rones, Libby, Ron, Ray, Desmond, Emily and Jeremy: you all are my work rocks. The people of the 55th District are lucky to have had you (they tell me this a lot), and I’m forever grateful
Thank you to John Walsh and Tommy Stallworth for showing us what statesmen look like. And thank you for saving Detroit and in many ways, saving us all.
Thank you to Governor Snyder, whom I’ve had the pleasure of having served as a boss as well as a constituent.
Thank you to the Capitol press corps: your work is crucial to the maintenance of our democracy. Thank you.
You know, it’s interesting when you find yourself defending some of your colleagues on one issue, but then eviscerating them on another. I’ve learned that in many times, some of the best friends we have are ‘frenemies.’ In that vein, thank you Eileen Weiser, Daniela Garcia and Tim Kelly. I find our conversations to be both extraordinarily interesting and also aggravating, and I’ve enjoyed pissing you off as much as getting along.
Thank you to Amanda Price. There are few people around here who have ever brought me to tears and you’re one of them. I know we will forever disagree on the means to an end, but I respect your intelligence, sincerity and heart.
Thank you to Kevin Hertel, Andy Schor, Jeremy Moss and Robert Wittenberg for being lifelong, steadfast friends.
Jeremy: I hope your next committee seatmate looks at you like I do.
Robert: making you stand on the side of US-2 in the snowy night to take that picture with my old car still doesn’t compare to the headaches you caused with your gun bills.
Thank you to Frank Liberati, Sam Singh and David LaGrand: you are all wonderful dads with great hearts.
Brandon Dillon: you’re a great friend. I wore this sweater today just for you.
Happy Birthday and thank you to Rosemary Robinson. You always voted with me when I needed you, heard me out when I asked, and remarked about my tight pants - which have gotten tighter. I still want to buy your new hipster constituents that keg of beer and talk policy sometime.
Thank you to my good friend Bill LaVoy. It broke my heart to have to sit next to you on this floor the day after you lost, and pissed me off to no end that we couldn’t claim Darrin as a true pickup because of it.
Thank you to Sherry and all of the members of the Detroit caucus - past and present. Because of you, I’ve learned all about the heart that your community has for its people. It’s inspiring and exciting. I owe you a debt that I won’t forget.
Thank you to my brothers and sisters from Macomb, especially Yanez and Chirkun: I do not understand your politics and probably never will.
Mike McCready: I’ll never forget when Art and Brad introduced us over lunch at that extremely dark and dingy place in Birmingham. I knew then what I know now: you’re a great guy who thinks with his heart and head.
Jason Sheppard: it’s been an honor to share Milan with you, brother. Make sure you introduce all of Zorn’s bills and get yours actually signed into law.
Gretchen, David, Yousef, Donna, Ronnie and Jeff: It has been an honor to serve our county alongside you. Thank you.
Al Pscholka once told all of us on ‘Approps’ that he hoped we visited a prison at some point during the term. That was an excellent, grounding piece of advice and one that I hope everyone in this chamber heeds.
I will add that I hope everyone here also spends some time really talking with people in the Upper Peninsula. I am forever grateful to Scott, John, Sara and Ed for advocating so fiercely for your peninsula, making sure we meet your people and really understand their issues. Our trips there have been one of the highlights of the past 6 years.
Superintendent Whiston, Wendy, Caroline, Stephen, Leah and Ben: thank you for your work at the department. Though we may not have been on the same page all of the time, I know you come from good places in your advocacy for education.
Thank you to Paul Muxlow, Erin Schor and Rose Bellanca: you showed me what the 28 Michigan Community colleges really do for our communities; something I am forever grateful for.
Ron Motsinger and Steve Gulick: thank you for taking the time to help a 27 year old with Justin Bieber hair really understand collective bargaining.
Thank you to David Hecker, Doug Pratt, Bill Rogers, John Kennedy, Scott Menzel, Scot Graden, Chris Timmis and Bryan Girbach: you’ve provided me with opportunity and reasonably-minded counsel for these years. I deeply appreciate it.
To Bob Kefgen, Christina Canfield and Margaret O’Brien: you showed me that grit, determination, strategy and sticking with your friends will get you to your goal. I’ll never forget our 3 year-battle on evals, and will always consider you among my most-trusted friends.
And before a few personal thank yous - the ‘best for last’ in the words of the great Afendoulis and Yanez - thank you to all of you here in the chamber and to all of you who advocate - either in the lobby, at home in our communities or elsewhere across the state. If I didn’t name you by name, it’s only because I had to shave time so that I didn’t run as long as Fred.
Your work has immeasurable value to those of us who are not experts on every one of your issues. You serve a critical role and I appreciate you.
I want to conclude with some personal thank yous to my closest friends - those who knew me largely before I came here.
Robbie Ducati, Lankes, and Scraps: I appreciate your friendship and support more than I can ever say. Our experiences building race cars formed the decision-making process I engaged here. I would not be the person I am without you.
Jason, Travis, Anna, Anna, Lauren, Fletcher, Kyle, Megan and neighbor Mike: it’s been an honor to be your friend.
To the Nader and Coulston families: it’s been an honor to work with you for so many years. I am proud to consider you friends.
To Team Dingell; Donofrio, LaBarre, Dobies, Karen, Peter, Ashley, Callie and especially Mr. and Congresswoman Dingell: you have always treated me as a member of the team, though I was only an honorary one. I’m forever grateful for your friendship.
Dave Holden: Rest in Peace and thank you for everything that you taught me. When we first met, I thought we would never agree on anything, but you ended up always having my back. I’ll never forget it.
To my mom and dad, sisters and brothers: thank you for all of the parade volunteering, door knocking and support. I would not be here without you, and I don’t say thank you enough.
Leigh: your text during church one morning got me into this whole mess and I sometimes still curse your name. But you’re also like a big brother to me and I appreciate you more than you know.
Kelly: you are my rock. I am not an easy person to get along with, let alone live with, and I am amazed that you’ve stuck with me as long as you have. We went on an interesting journey over the past few months, and I am excited about many more to come. I am forever grateful to you and Emma for giving me the chances that you do to show you how much I care. I love you.
To paraphrase the great artist of my time, Macklemore: ‘acquaintances turn to friends, and friends turn to family.’ We all have family that we may agree with or disagree with. Family that we may talk with a little or a lot. This chamber is a microcosm of that.
I will cherish the times we’ve had together, and really look forward to those that will come in the future. We’ve only got five speeches left.
Best of luck and see you later.”
