Rep. Julie A. Calley, from the 87th District, offered the following invocation:
“We bow our heads in the middle of another chaotic day, in search of Your will and Your wisdom. In 1 Corinthians, You remind us that our God-given talents are unique and varied. We need each other in order to be a complete body of Christ. You didn’t create us to be the same, which means our self-imposed competitive spirits can be a barrier to Your will. We arrive here with unique experiences and aptitudes, carrying the vision and values of our constituents. May we recognize that we need You at the center of our decisions. Help us to remember that we need each other, as well. Our diversity enriches our ability to make decisions for the wellbeing of the people we serve.
Lord, we praise You for the example You set, showing us what leadership through service truly looks like. Help us to mirror Your example, to be humble, kind and patient.
We ask for Your blessings and protection on those who serve in the armed forces and as first responders. We are grateful for their strength, selflessness, and protection.
Now, we ask that You would be honored by our collaboration, as we seek Your will and continue through this day, which is indeed a gift from You.”
______
The Speaker called the Speaker Pro Tempore to the Chair.
Motions and Resolutions
Reps. Thanedar, Hertel, Hammoud, Cavanagh, Steckloff, Weiss, Puri, Brixie, Lasinski, O’Neal, Whiteford, Rendon, Yaroch, Breen, Haadsma, Hope, Liberati, Morse, Shannon, Sneller, Sowerby and Witwer offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 46.
A resolution to declare March 2021 as Brain Injury Awareness Month in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, According to the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 1.5 million Americans sustain a traumatic brain injury (TBI) each year, and over 50,000 of those individuals die as a result of these injuries. In Michigan alone, 58,500 will sustain a TBI per year; and
Whereas, The costs relating to brain injury are staggering, and individuals with severe brain injury can typically face life-long disabilities, even after rehabilitation. The CDC also estimates that cumulative costs exceed $60 billion annually; and
Whereas, Individuals with severe brain injury suffer from serious physical impairments and a variety of perceptual, cognitive, psychiatric, emotional, and behavioral complications, including impaired interpersonal and problem solving skills, memory loss, decreased thought processing abilities, speech and seizure disorders, and physical deficits; and
Whereas, The only cure for brain injury is prevention and public awareness is critical to the prevention of brain injury and to enhancing the recovery process of all individuals affected by TBI; and
Whereas, The Brain Injury Association of Michigan is a statewide membership organization dedicated to providing prevention, research, education, advocacy, and support services to all individuals affected by brain injury and to the general public; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare March 2021 as Brain Injury Awareness Month in the state of Michigan. We encourage public officials and the citizens of Michigan to observe the month with appropriate activities and programs to raise awareness about the symptoms of, and ways of preventing, brain injuries.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.
Rep. Damoose offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 47.
Whereas, Thousands of Michigan National Guard Troops have been deployed in our Nation’s Capital since mid-January to assist with security for the Inauguration and in the days following; and
Whereas, They have proudly answered the call, served our country, and continue to make our state proud; and
Whereas, In recent weeks there have been reports of soldiers being served undercooked and contaminated food; and
Whereas, This is unacceptable and an embarrassment to the D.C. leadership accountable for this mission; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we call on the National Guard Bureau to end the food contract for the 1,000 Michigan National Guard currently deployed to Washington, D.C., and provide a per diem food allowance backdated to the start of the mobilization; and be it further
Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the Chief of the National Guard Bureau and the Adjutant General and Director of the Michigan Department of Military and Veterans Affairs.
The resolution was referred to the Committee on Military, Veterans and Homeland Security.
