“Almighty and Eternal God, we thank You
for all the gifts that You have bestowed upon us, notably the gift of this day,
the gift of life and the gift of freedom. We also thank You that You have
allowed us to participate in Your rule over all creation and that You have
brought together here men and women as representatives of Your people to bring
about justice. Inspire then in us virtues of prudence and justice. Give us
please Your wisdom today and grant us courage in our deliberations. We pray
that in all things we may advance in charity. Help us to set aside our
particular interests and always to strive for the common good. Finally, we wish
to listen to Your promptings personally in growing daily in becoming a better
person and humbly seeking forgiveness for our shortcomings. May we thereby lead
those we represent to be good citizens themselves.
Lord God, bless our beloved state and
home and please allow the fruits of our labor to bring about Your will. Amen.”

Motions
and Resolutions
House Resolution No. 149.
A
resolution to declare September 7, 2019, as Great Lakes-St. Lawrence
Appreciation Day in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, The Great Lakes system, including Lake Erie,
Lake Huron, Lake Ontario, Lake Michigan, Lake Superior, and the St. Lawrence River, is a globally
significant resource and ecosystem, holding 21 percent of the world’s
surface freshwater; and
Whereas, The Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River provide
drinking water to more than 48 million Americans and
Canadians and supply 56 billion gallons of water per day for municipal,
agricultural, and industrial use; and
Whereas, On September 7, 2012, by signing a revised Great
Lakes Water Quality Agreement, the United States and
Canada reaffirmed their commitment to binational cooperation “to restore,
protect, and enhance the water quality of the Great Lakes to promote the
ecological health of the Great Lakes basin”; and
Whereas,
According to the Environmental Protection Agency, more than 30 million people
live in the Great Lakes basin, equating to 10 percent of U.S. residents and 30
percent of Canadian residents. More than 3,500 species of plants and animals
inhabit the Great Lakes basin, including 170-plus species of fish; and
Whereas,
An abundant supply of clean, affordable water is essential to support a healthy
population, a thriving economy, and a well-functioning ecosystem; and
Whereas, As the major source of water for communities
located within the Great Lakes basin, the Great Lakes
system is a vital resource in which all the region’s residents share a common
interest; and
Whereas,
The Great Lakes system is an economic powerhouse for the region, supporting
industries such as shipping, agriculture, technology, manufacturing,
recreation, and tourism; and
Whereas,
The waters and shoreline of the Great Lakes system provide exceptional habitat
for thousands of species of native mammals, birds, amphibians, fish, and
plants; and
Whereas,
The Great Lakes basin is home to numerous beaches, parks, forests, harbors,
marinas, piers, lighthouses, boardwalks, and islands that provide recreational
opportunities for swimming, hiking, surfing, boating, kayaking, canoeing,
fishing, hunting, photography, wildlife watching, and more; and
Whereas,
Michigan borders four of the five Great Lakes and is home to the world’s
longest freshwater coastline and the world’s largest freshwater dune system
making the Great Lakes one of our most valuable natural resources, providing water for drinking and industry, shipping
of commodities, fishing, and water‑borne transportation. An
estimated 5 million people visit Michigan’s shorelines every year, with tourism
generating more than $2.1 billion annually and supporting more than 200,000
jobs; and
Whereas,
People greatly value the opportunity to live, work, and play in areas near
waters that are vibrant, beautiful, and life sustaining; and
Whereas, The region’s environment, economy, and residents
rely on the clean, healthy waters of the Great Lakes and
St. Lawrence River; now, therefore, be it
Resolved
by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body
declare September 7, 2019, as Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Appreciation Day in
Michigan. We urge appropriate observance of this occasion throughout Michigan and the states that share the Great Lakes
and St. Lawrence River and encourage all Michiganders to learn about the
importance of the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River to the economy and the
environment of Michigan; and be it further
Resolved,
That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the governors of Michigan and
the states that share the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River.
The
question being on the adoption of the resolution,
Rep. Love moved to substitute (H-1) the resolution as follows:

making the Great Lakes one of our most valuable natural resources, providing water for drinking and industry, shipping
of commodities, fishing, and water‑borne transportation. Michigan’s
beaches helped attract 122.4 million visitors in 2017 who spent $24.7 billion.
This generated $2.7 billion in state and local taxes; and
Whereas,
People greatly value the opportunity to live, work, and play in areas near
waters that are vibrant, beautiful, and life sustaining; and
Whereas, The region’s environment, economy, and residents
rely on the clean, healthy waters of the Great Lakes and

The
question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.
Reps.
Schroeder, Calley and Crawford offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 150.
A
resolution to declare September 8-14, 2019, as Direct Support Professionals
Recognition Week in the state of Michigan.
Whereas,
Direct support professionals must build close, trusted relationships with
individuals and assist them with various needs on a daily basis; and
Whereas,
Direct support professionals support individuals with disabilities in making
choices that lead to meaningful and productive lives; and
Whereas,
Direct support professionals provide essential support to keep individuals with
disabilities connected to their families, friends, and communities; and
Whereas,
The participation of direct support professionals in medical care planning is
critical to the successful transition from medical events to post-acute care
and long-term supports and services; and
Whereas,
There is a critical and growing shortage of direct support professionals in
communities throughout the United States; and
Whereas,
The role of direct support professionals is vital in enhancing the lives of
individuals with disabilities of all ages; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the
members of this legislative body declare September 8-14, 2019,
as Direct Support Professionals Recognition Week in the state of Michigan.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.
Rep. Yaroch offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 151.
A
resolution to urge the Congress of the United States to clarify its position on
the legality of marijuana under the Controlled Substances Act of 1970.
Whereas,
Despite federal law criminalizing marijuana, many states have exercised their
authority to enact marijuana laws that reflect the needs and interests of their
citizens. Currently, the state of Michigan is among a majority of states that
have chosen to regulate marijuana under state law; and
Whereas,
The federal government’s lack of clarity and inconsistency in its
interpretation of the legality of marijuana under the Controlled Substances Act
of 1970 has created confusion and uncertainty for states legislating marijuana
operations. This, in turn, affects law enforcement, banking, taxation, and
zoning; now, therefore, be it
Resolved
by the House of Representatives, That we urge the Congress of the United States
to clarify its position on the legality of marijuana under the Controlled
Substances Act of 1970; 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, and
the members of the Michigan congressional delegation.
The resolution was referred to the Committee on Judiciary.
