______

 

 

Reps. Hope, Weiss and Morse, having reserved the right to explain their protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:

“Mr. Speaker and members of the House:

I voted no on SB 784 because this legislation has been fast-tracked without due time for review, consideration, and most crucially, input from our veterans and surviving spouses. Democrats have introduced similar legislation with a more straight-forward approach to providing this relief to disabled veterans and surviving spouses.”

Rep. Brixie, having reserved the right to explain her protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:

“Mr. Speaker and members of the House:

I voted No on SB 784 because this legislation has been fast-tracked without due time for review, consideration, and most crucially– input from our veterans and surviving spouses. Additionally, this legislation is tie-barred to an unfunded, fiscally irresponsible $2.5 Billion income tax cut that would mostly benefit millionaires and billionaires.”

 

Rep. Hood, having reserved the right to explain her protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:

“Mr. Speaker and members of the House:

I voted No on SB 784 because this legislation has been fast-tracked without due time for review, consideration, and most crucially– input from our veterans and surviving spouses. Democrats have introduced similar legislation with a more straight-forward approach to providing this relief to disabled veterans and surviving spouses, but these bills have not been heard in committee.”

 

Rep. Manoogian, having reserved the right to explain her protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:

“Mr. Speaker and members of the House:

I voted No on SB 784 because this legislation has been fast-tracked without proper time for review, consideration, and in my opinion, most importantly–without seeking meaningful input from veterans and surviving spouses. Democrats have introduced similar legislation with a more straight-forward approach to providing this relief to disabled veterans and surviving spouses.”

 

Rep. Young, having reserved the right to explain her protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:

“Mr. Speaker and members of the House:

Our veterans and their surviving spouses deserve relief that doesn’t require additional bureaucracy to get it.”

 

Rep. Rogers, having reserved the right to explain her protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:

“Mr. Speaker and members of the House:

I voted no on SB 78 because this legislation is tie-barred to HB 4568, a Republican tax cut plan. This bill involves a significant policy change to the mechanism veterans receive property tax exemptions and was not given a committee hearing in the House. There was not an opportunity for veterans and their families to give input on these changes which I would value. Democrats have introduced similar legislation with a more direct approach and no income tax reporting requirements.”

 

Rep. Cavanagh, having reserved the right to explain her protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:

“Mr. Speaker and members of the House:

This bill was plainly a bill that was Performative Hero Worship, that puts our veterans on bills to make it more appealing and sound better without giving aide to the Michiganders that need it most. This bill creates additional work for our veterans surviving spouses that is linked with income tax. I voted no, not only because this legislation has been fast-tracked without due time for review, consideration, and more crucially- lacking the input from our veterans and surviving spouses, but also because my democratic colleagues for several terms have introduced similar legislation that would actually give relief to our disabled veterans and surviving spouses while also being more straightforward than requiring additional hoops or language to tie it with their income.”

Messages from the Governor

 

 

The following message from the Governor was received May 24, 2022 and read:

 

EXECUTIVE ORDER

No. 2022-2

Declaration of State of Emergency

 

At roughly 3:50pm on May 20, 2022, a tornado struck Gaylord, Michigan, causing at least one fatality, dozens of serious injuries to residents, and widespread damage to businesses, roads, and homes. Gas mains in the city are leaking and power lines are downed. Fuel supplies are limited.

Local officials in Otsego County have taken several actions to respond to the incident, including but not limited to: activating the disaster or emergency response and recovery aspects of their emergency operations plans; issuing emergency public information; and providing relief and support to affected individuals. Despite these responses, the assistance of voluntary organizations and the state are required to protect public health, safety, and property, and to lessen or avert the threat of more severe and persisting impacts to the community. State assistance and other outside resources are necessary to effectively respond to, and recover from, the effects of the tornado.

Section 1 of article 5 of the Michigan Constitution of 1963 vests the executive power of the State of Michigan in the governor. Under the Emergency Management Act, 1976 PA 390, as amended, MCL 30.403(4), “[t]he governor shall, by executive order or proclamation, declare a state of emergency if he or she finds that an emergency has occurred or that the threat of an emergency exists.”

Therefore, acting under the Michigan Constitution of 1963 and Michigan law, including the Emergency Management Act, 1976 PA 390, as amended, MCL 30.401 to 30.421, I order the following:

   1.  A state of emergency is declared for Otsego County. Additional jurisdictions may be added as needed and conditions change.

   2.  The Emergency Management and Homeland Security Division of the Department of State Police shall coordinate and maximize all state efforts and may call upon all state departments to utilize available resources to assist in the designated area pursuant to the Michigan Emergency Management Plan.

   3.  Motor carriers and drivers

        a.  Motor carriers and drivers transporting gasoline and other motor fuels to address the transportation and supply needs arising from the current emergency are exempt from compliance with MCL 480.11a and any other applicable state statute, order, or rule substantially similar to MCL 480.11a, as well as 49 CFR Part 395. Any provision of a state statute, order, or rule pertaining to the hours-of-service is suspended. These exemptions and suspensions apply to all highways in Michigan, including the national system of interstate and defense highways.

        b.  No motor carrier or driver operating under the terms of this Order shall require or allow an ill or fatigued driver to operate a motor vehicle. Any driver who informs a carrier that he or she needs immediate rest shall be given at least ten consecutive off-duty hours before the driver is required to return to work.
