To God, who makes the winds blow and the rains descend, we pray for the well-being of those traveling through our state today. We also pray for our police and emergency personnel, plow drivers and public works departments, and all others who are out there right now keeping our roads safe.

Also today is the solemn two-year anniversary of the horrific shooting at Michigan State University—my alma mater and many of those in our chamber. We keep Arielle, Brian, and Alexandria close in our thoughts; and those who are still recovering from severe injuries to this day. The epidemic of gun violence in this country has impacted too many victims and families here in Michigan. We hold them in our prayers as we continue to improve public policy from this chamber. Let us continue this work as we say: Amen.

‎

Senator Moss asked and was granted unanimous consent to make a statement and moved that the statement be printed in the Journal.

The motion prevailed.

Senator Moss’ statement is as follows:

You go with the cliché, “how bittersweet it is,” but it is truly bittersweet to say farewell to Elizabeth Crenshaw from my office, who has been in my office for nearly two years but also worked for Senator Hollier before me, so she’s leaving after a long tenure here in the Senate. She has served as my district director and I can tell you, Elizabeth is the most networked person I have ever met. She is the knower of everyone. When we are anywhere in the district, from Detroit to Southfield, to Bloomfield, to Pontiac, we’ll be at an event and she is talking to people and she’s introducing me to people in the district. There are times where she is giving these big loving hugs to people and I said to Elizabeth, How do you know this person? She says, Oh we just met today. So Elizabeth truly is just a burst of energy and joy and is somebody who just has this magnetic personality. I can’t thank her enough for being in this role as our district director because it has meant a lot to bring in folks and make them feel welcomed into our office, into our work, but also it’s just been a complete asset for me to be able to serve this community.

One of the things we do in our office as kind of a premier event is we have a senior summit every single year where we bring all these community groups together in one place at one time as a one-stop shop for the seniors in our district. Elizabeth has spearheaded that event for the last two years. From what was really kind of a town hall in my first year in the House has become this massive event because Elizabeth has helped it to grow. It draws hundreds of people, it connects people with vital resources in our community, and that’s because of Elizabeth’s, again, her networkability, her planning skills, and her vision. It’s going to be a big void to be able to keep that event going, but Elizabeth has really set the tone and laid the foundation for that to be a continuing success.

Elizabeth will be leaving our office for an opportunity with Senator Slotkin, so you will certainly hear and see from her in that role. We’re so pleased that she’s taking the skills she has learned here in the State Senate to the federal level, to the U.S. Senate. She’s going to be a total asset for our new Senator here in the state of Michigan. We will miss you dearly. You’ve done just a tremendous job for the residents of the 7th Senate District and our entire institution. I just want to recognize you on the floor. We have a tribute seal signed by all of our colleagues here. If we could give her a round of applause for her service, we’d really appreciate it.

In The Chair: Moss

The Senate agreed to the title of the bill.

Senators Huizenga, Albert, Lauwers, Singh and Nesbitt asked and were granted unanimous consent to make statements and moved that the statements be printed in the Journal.

The motion prevailed.

Senator Huizenga’s statement is as follows:

House Republicans took immediate action to stand up for workers and small businesses. These changes protect small businesses from burdensome, one-size mandates that threaten jobs and wages. My substitute will ensure that tipped employees will continue to earn strong, stable incomes, something that restaurant workers across the state have asked for. I urge my colleagues to support this substitute.
‎

Senator Albert’s statement is as follows:

I am voting “yes” today because the changes outlined here are better than the court-ordered mandates set to take effect next week. Overall, this bill does a lot to help those with a tipped-wage job, but some entry-level jobs still are at risk. As a whole it is better than the alternative, and in trying to build consensus I cannot let the perfect be the enemy of the good. I wish we were also addressing my concerns on entry-level jobs. The risk here is caused by inflating mandated starting wages beyond what the market can support. This could result in pricing out jobs. As I’ve said numerous times, we need many fair wages. Entry-level jobs are the best path for someone to lift themself out of poverty. I’m not opposed to a minimum wage, but we should not be setting the bar to a point of eliminating opportunities.

That being said, my concerns here are outweighed by the critical need to restore the tipped wage credit. I would greatly prefer to stay at 38 percent, but the 50 percent rate is better than a complete elimination which would devastate the restaurant industry and lead to losses of thousands of jobs. My “yes” vote also is based upon expected further action by this Legislature on House Bill No. 4002 which would preserve important sick time exemptions for Michigan small businesses. If this Legislature changes House Bill No. 4002 in a way that does not sufficiently exempt small businesses and clean up practical problems with these new onerous mandates outlined by the Supreme Court decision, then I will be a “no” on that bill.

Senator Lauwers’ statement is as follows:

Just a quick word on this. I’m voting for it; I plan to vote for it. It’s better than what we had, but I think as a chamber we’re missing the whole point here. One of those points is we are connecting or grouping minimum wage with CPI—any kind of CPI, I don’t care which kind it is. That’s guaranteed inflation. It’s built-in inflation. We’re going to cause—we’re going to guarantee that minimum wage goes up forever and ever and ever and ever if this holds. If CPI is up, then you’ve got to raise minimum wage, right? If you raise minimum wage, what happens? Things cost more at wherever you’re buying things where minimum wage is used to produce those products or provide those services. It goes up, it goes up, we’re creating a cycle. I think as a body we really need to start reviewing our use of this connection of price increases, of tax increases, of wage increases, to CPI. It’s a dangerous philosophy.

Senator Singh’s statement is as follows:

I just wanted to make a quick statement based off my good friend from the 25th District. Yes, this bill does do that. It does have an increase on the minimum wage year after year once it gets to $15. That $15 will actually be two years earlier than what the court-mandated experience would be, and I think that is good for Michigan workers and that is one of the reasons why I’m supporting this bill.

Senator Nesbitt’s statement is as follows:

Over the past several months since the decision last summer, Senate Republicans have been calling for a fix of the Supreme Court decision, to save 50,000 jobs, to save one in five local restaurant businesses, to allow family owned and operated establishments to work, the ones we all know and love, a chance, just a chance, to survive. After months of calling for discussion and for negotiations to find a consensus, those discussions have finally happened over the last few hours. This bill will help save the tip credit. It will allow our waitstaff and bartenders to continue to make a good living without the burdensome restrictions of a top-down, one-size-fits-all mandate.

This bill isn’t perfect. It’s not what I would pass if I was the only one making the decision. It’s not what we would pass if there was a Republican majority in the Senate. In fact, we just voted on what our preferred path would be on this side. But when it comes to saving Michigan jobs and keeping our local restaurants and bars in business, we can’t make the perfect the enemy of the good. This is a first step in finding a solution to save the businesses that make Michigan great, to look forward to finding a resolution to allow Michigan businesses to continue providing reasonable, responsible, and flexible paid time for hardworking families. Hopefully over the coming week, we can find a solution to saving paid time off here in the state and to finally find a solution for these two issues, and to prevent economic catastrophe if nothing is done because of this Supreme Court decision last summer. I ask for a “yes” vote on this bill.

Senator Singh moved that the Senate return to consideration of the following bill:

Senate Bill No. 60

The motion prevailed.

The following bill was read a third time:

Senate Bill No. 60, entitled

A bill to amend 1978 PA 368, entitled “Public health code,” by amending section 16189 (MCL 333.16189), as amended by 2022 PA 38.

Resolutions

Senator Singh moved that rule 3.204 be suspended to permit immediate consideration of the following resolutions:

Senate Resolution No. 10

Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 2

Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 3

The motion prevailed, a majority of the members serving voting therefor.

Senator Santana offered the following resolution:

Senate Resolution No. 10.

A resolution to recognize February 2025 as Black History Month.

Whereas, The origins of Black History Month began as a concept in 1915, and in earnest in 1924 when Dr. Carter G. Woodson, through his beloved Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc., created Negro History and Literature Week in the United States. Since 1976, every United States President has adopted the month of February as Black History Month, an annual celebration of African-American achievements and roles in our history; and

Whereas, As a result of growing awareness of Black identity and the contributions of the Civil Rights Movement, Black History Month is a time to reflect on the burdens of racial prejudice and to explore, understand, and appreciate the identities and cultures across and within the African diaspora; and

Whereas, We pay tribute to, not only the many African-American historical figures in our nation’s history, but also the hidden figures that have contributed to American ingenuity and innovation throughout the existence of this great nation, the celebration of which has evolved into a month-long celebration of Black progress and power; and

Whereas, President Gerald R. Ford officially recognized Black History Month in 1976, calling upon the public to “seize the opportunity to honor the too often neglected accomplishments of Black Americans in every area of endeavor throughout our history”; and

Whereas, Michigan recognizes the injustices that African-Americans have endured and commends the African-American community for the continuous pursuit of overcoming those injustices, while changing the course and nature of history. We honor the prominent leaders and activists who have paved the way for equality and justice; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the Senate, That the members of this legislative body recognize February 2025 as Black History Month; and be it further

Resolved, That we honor the contributions and sacrifices made toward building pride in Black history and educating all Americans; and be it further

Resolved, That we join other organizations throughout the state of Michigan and this country to raise awareness about the hardships African-Americans have endured, celebrate the milestones achieved, and continue the unrelenting pursuit of equality and justice for all.

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

The resolution was adopted.

Senators Chang, McMorrow, Moss, Anthony, Bayer, Bellino, Brinks, Bumstead, Camilleri, Cavanagh, Cherry, Damoose, Hauck, Hertel, Hoitenga, Huizenga, Irwin, Klinefelt, Lauwers, McCann, Nesbitt, Polehanki, Shink, Singh, Theis, Victory, Webber and Wojno were named co-sponsors of the resolution.

Senator Santana asked and was granted unanimous consent to make a statement and moved that the statement be printed in the Journal.

The motion prevailed.

Senator Santana’s statement is as follows:

To begin, I am an African American woman who understands that America is a great country. A great country that has never been perfect. As we enter February and acknowledge Black History Month, and recognize the contributions of African Americans to society and our economy, I do so by fully understanding the struggle of my ancestors in America who fought the bloody Civil War, that freed over four million Africans who lived enslaved, and took another 100 years after that for my ancestors to achieve the full equality under the law. The struggle of Civil Rights saw governors defy presidents, police dogs attack innocent people and peaceful protestors, and children murdered in churches by bombs.

One of the most important lessons we will learn during the Civil Rights era was that America does not change on its own. Our nation changes because American people demand that we hold our leadership accountable from the community, all the way to the White House. As we continue to celebrate Black history, let us not repeat the mistakes of the past, but let’s take this country in a forward direction that says, We are all equal under the law.
