Father Maurice Restivo, from the St. Anne's Parish in Detroit, offered the following invocation:
"Gracious and Loving God, You bring light from darkness, You bring order from chaos. You created the beautiful land in which we live, You created Michigan, with its lakes, with its greenery, with its minerals, and with its richness. You created the human family in Your own image and likeness, and called us to follow in Your work of creation. You have allowed us to create society and to build cities. Guide these legislators today as they continue Your work of creation, as they bring order out of chaos, and bring justice where there is injustice. Help them to bring life where there is decay. Help them to make Your presence known. We pray that You bless each one of us and to bless this work. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen."

Rep. Richardville, having reserved the right to explain his nay vote, made the following statement:
"Mr. Speaker and members of the House:
The Lifeline Program is intended to help elderly low-income and low-income families to afford phone service. This poorly-written amendment would augment wealthy senior citizens. Furthermore, because of the higher-effect of bigger phone bills, it would cost average-income families an inordinate, unfair subsidy. This is poor legislation."

A resolution honoring the life of Barbara Benekin Chambers.
Whereas, In honor and recognition of the life of Barbara Benekin Chambers, the members of the House of Representatives humbly submit our deepest sympathy; and
Whereas, A native of Jacksonville, Florida, Barbara Benekin Chambers was born on December 19, 1940. Throughout her entire life she strived to brighten and touch the lives of everyone around her; and
Whereas, She dedicated more than a quarter of a century to educating Southeastern Detroit youth at Detroit's Finney High School, giving countless unpaid hours to her students regardless of race, religion, or creed; and

Whereas, On September 2, 1998, while on her way to work, Barbara was called back to the Lord. The memory of Barbara Benekin Chambers will forever remain cherished in the hearts and minds of those who knew and loved her. She leaves behind a legacy of love; now, therefore, be it

Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the family of Barbara Benekin Chambers, and placed in the archives of Detroit Finney High School, Detroit Public School - Office of School to Work, and Business Professionals of America - Michigan Association, as a symbol of our deepest sympathy.

House Resolution No. 94.
A resolution to commemorate the 100th anniversary of The Detroit Study Club and to express appreciation for their valuable contributions in Michigan.
Whereas, We are proud to join with the members, officers, and friends of The Detroit Study Club as they gather to mark the 100th anniversary of this outstanding group. This milestone is a reflection of unselfishness and commitment to the common good that is most commendable. While the members of this distinguished organization celebrate 100 years of service, we offer our thanks for the gifts they have shared within the City of Detroit and throughout Michigan; and
Whereas, The Detroit Study Club can trace its origins to 1898 and the aspirations of its founders. In the years that have followed since they first came together, this organization has adapted to changes in society, membership, and expectations. This ability to grow and change has shown the belief that the members have maintained in their mission of service and the unity of the membership. The members have strived to continue the legacy of African-American women, gathering to exchange ideas, stimulate thought, and study great literature, as well as the important issues of the day. Many of the members are descendants of the founders and early members, as well as highly respected women in the Detroit community; and
Whereas, With ceremonies to celebrate its history, the members and officers of The Detroit Study Club will remember the vision of many people and the hours and years of commitment that have brought the group to this point. Fittingly, as they look to the past, they will also be casting an eye to the future and to the many ways in which The Detroit Study Club will continue to reach out in our state; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That a unanimous accolade of tribute be hereby accorded to commemorate the 100th anniversary of The Detroit Study Club and to express appreciation for their valuable contributions in the state of Michigan; and be it further

House Resolution No. 95.
A resolution honoring Pattengill Middle School Students.
Whereas, Pattengill Middle School students Marcus Alston, Ben Pedersen, Rebekah Savoie, Nancy Xiong, Brandon Young, and their teacher, Andon B. Pogoncheff, are being honored as one of the ten teams selected as National Finalists in the Bayer/National Science Foundation Award for Community Innovation. This recognition is a well-earned milestone that took hours of planning, work, and personal commitment by each participant; and
Whereas, The Bayer/National Science Foundation Award is sponsored by Bayer Corporation as part of its Making Science Make Sense Program, the National Science Foundation, the Christopher Columbus Fellowship Foundation, and Discover Magazine. The Bayer/NSF Award challenges students in grades six through eight to use science and technology to develop innovative solutions to real problems that they identify in their community; and
Whereas, The award is now in its third year, and more than 500 teams nationwide submitted entries which consist of written and visual presentations. The finalists were selected from 30 semi-finalist teams by a national judging panel; and
Whereas, Over 5,300 people die in house fires every year, most often as a result of smoke inhalation. The innovative team of eighth graders from Pattengill Middle School in Lansing, Michigan devised a modified smoke detector that will signal a light outside a bedroom window to flash, alerting fire fighters to the location of potential victims and enhancing rescue efforts; and
Whereas, These students used a team approach to assess local needs, conduct research, obtain the input of scientists, community leaders, their instructor and other experts, and develop and test their solution. They achieved great success in their results; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of the Michigan House of Representatives congratulate Pattengill Middle School students Marcus Alston, Ben Pedersen, Rebekah Savoie, Nancy Xiong, Brandon Young, and their instructor, Andon B. Pogoncheff, as they receive honors as one of the National Finalists in the Bayer/National Science Foundation Award for Community Innovation. We wish them continuing success in their efforts and many additions to the honors they have already received for their excellent record; and be it further
Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to Pattengill Middle School as a token of our highest esteem and best wishes.

Rep. Raczkowski moved that Rule 77 be suspended and the resolution be considered at this time.
