Rabbi Joseph Klein, from the Temple Emanuel in Oak Park, offered the following invocation:

"Belief in God begins not with faith in theology, but faith in humanity. Belief in God has to do with human nature, with the way individual men and women act, with their attitudes: with their idea of what is good and what is bad...with their ideals. Belief in God has to do with our attitude toward Life itself. Do we find Life good? Is Life worthwhile?

If we believe that Life is worthwhile, that it is good, that in spite of sickness and accidents, in spite of personal conflicts and hurtful behavior, in spite of all the sad and difficult conditions of the world, the world is still a beautiful place to live in, and can yet be made an even better place--then we believe in God.

When we believe, we cannot be discouraged into thinking that all the misery in the world is due to the fact that misery must be there, or that it is a necessary part of life--rather our belief must lead us to the realization that we have not yet discovered how to do away with that misery!

We must, therefore, gather today and always as representatives of our communities, all of us in the common prayer that our efforts here might find benefit and improve the lives of the families and individuals of our great state. We pray for the wisdom, the courage, and the energy to become effective co-workers with our fellow citizens, believing that each life we touch and each decision made is another opportunity to make this a better world.

With the psalmist of Hebrew Scripture we affirm the single truth that transcends all belief: Behold, how good and how pleasant it is when brothers and sisters dwell together as one. Amen."

Amend page 13, line 18, after "to" by striking out the balance of the sentence and inserting "family independence program applicants and recipients and may be expended for grants which provide employment and training services to former family independence program recipients, as well as to recipients of noncash public assistance, specifically child day care, medicaid, or food stamp benefits.".

2. Amend page 14, line 9, after "shall" by striking out "be limited to" and inserting "include applicants and".

3. Amend page 14, line 14, after "section." by inserting "Additionally, the department and the family independence agency shall work together to develop a program to provide employment services to former family independence program recipients and to recipients of noncash public assistance benefits such as child day care, medicaid, or food stamp benefits. This program shall not be construed to be an entitlement to services.".

4. Amend page 16, line 4, by striking out all of subsection (12) and inserting:

"(12) The department and the family independence agency shall establish clear joint guidelines on the eligibility of work first participants for post-employment training support and on how training/education hours can be applied toward federal work participation requirements. These guidelines shall be developed in a manner which balances the ability of participants to obtain training and subsequent long-term, high-wage employment with the need to connect participants with the workplace. Any and all training/education, with the exception of high school completion and GED preparation, must be occupationally relevant and in demand in the labor market as determined by the workforce development board. Participants must make satisfactory progress while in training/education. The department shall submit these guidelines to the house and senate appropriations committees with jurisdiction over the department, over the family independence agency, and to the fiscal agencies by October 1, 1999.

(13) Work first participants may meet the work participation requirement by combining a minimum of 10 hours per week of work with training/education. Training/education may last up to 12 months and the calculated hours may include actual classroom seat time up to 10 hours per week plus up to 1 hour of study time for each hour of classroom seat time. The combined work and training/education hours must equal the minimum number of hours required to meet the federal work participation requirements, 30 hours per week for a single parent, 35 hours per week for 2-parent families, 55 hours if utilizing federally funded day care, and 20 hours per week for single parents with a child under the age of 6. Work first participants may enroll in additional hours of classroom seat time beyond the 10 hours. However, these hours and the related study time will not count toward the work participation requirement. The training may be no longer than a 1-year program, or the final year of a 2- or 4-year undergraduate program which is designed to lead to immediate labor force attachment.

(14) Work first participants may meet the federal work participation requirement through enrollment in a short-term vocational program requiring 30 hours of classroom seat time per week for a period not to exceed 6 months, or by enrollment in full-time internships, practicums, or clinicals required by an academic or training institution for licensure, professional certification, or degree completion, without an additional work requirement. Two-parent families who receive federally funded day care must work an additional 25 hours per week to meet the federal work participation requirement.

(15) Work first participants who lack a high school diploma or GED and who enroll in high school completion or classes to obtain a GED may count up to 10 hours of classroom seat time, combined with a minimum of number of hours of work per week, to meet their federal work participation requirement. There shall be no time limit on high school completion. GED preparation shall be limited to 6 months.".

A bill to make appropriations for the department of career development and certain other state purposes for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2000; to provide for the expenditure of the appropriations; and to provide for the disposition of fees and other income received by the state agencies.

The House agreed to the title as amended.

______

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

"Mr. Speaker and members of the House:

This legislation funds a project dear to the heart of Hillary Clinton, but which most of the citizens who voted for me oppose very strongly.

The notion of a system of bureaucratic 'Workforce Development Boards' telling parents in detail how their children should be 'trained' (as opposed to educated) came out of a Carnegie Foundation report Hillary worked on back in the early 1990s. The report concluded the United States could not compete with Japan because we did not have this type of career channeling for our young people.

Since that time Japan's economy has been in a sustained depression, largely because they failed to rid themselves of centralized bureaucratic controls like the 'Workforce Development Boards' funded by this bill. Meanwhile, our economy, free of such foolish schemes, has grown, by leaps and bounds, making this nation the envy of the world.

Nobel-winning economist Friedreich Hayek called the illusion central planner could improve our lot through bureaucratic fantasies like "Workforce Development Boards" the 'Fatal Conceit.' He correctly pointed out such schemes are 'The Road to Serfdom.'

Free men and women do not need government central planners to tell them what jobs their children should be trained for. For that reason I vote 'no' on this ill-founded piece of social engineering."

Second Reading of Bills

Senate Bill No. 361, entitled

A bill to make appropriations for the department of consumer and industry services and certain other state purposes for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2000; to provide for the expenditure of those appropriations; to provide for the imposition of certain fees; to provide for the disposition of fees and other income received by the state agencies; to provide for reports to certain persons; and to prescribe powers and duties of certain state departments and certain state and local agencies and officers.

Many excuses are given for the extra spending. Lansing bureaucrats seem to think that since the economy is growing and the state is taking in more revenue, there's nothing wrong with spending more. Nothing wrong, that is, unless one was elected as I and many of my post-term limits House colleagues were on a promise to reduce not just the rate of government growth but its actual size."

______

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

"Mr. Speaker and members of the House:

I voted no on House Bill 4499 because the bill does not allow feeding or baiting in the buffer zone while allowing limited feeding throughout the rest of the state. I cannot support such a measure."

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

"Mr. Speaker and members of the House:

While I am in agreement with the concept of banning supplemental feeding of Deer and Elk, HB 4499 is too narrowly focused. HB 4499 seeks to reduce the risk of communication of TB among deer to zero, but only if that risk is caused by someone other than a farmer. Special interests want to create a situation where farmers are allowed to create any level of risk which arises from normal farming practices.

In the meantime, a retired couple who throws out a small amount of feed in their back yard because they enjoy watching the wildlife are made criminals by this bill. That small level of risk is deemed unacceptable, while a greater level of risk created by farmers is overlooked by this legislation written for a few special interest groups. If special interest groups want a bill which chiefly benefits their members, they should be willing either to allow minimal risk created by recreational feeding, or else they should be willing to go the extra mile to eliminate all risk created by their constituency."

By unanimous consent the House returned to the order of

House Resolution No. 104.

A resolution to oppose the testing, transportation, or use of warhead plutonium converted to MOX (mixed oxide) within the Great Lakes Basin.

Whereas, The United States Department of Energy (DOE) has developed a plan to dispose of large portions of the Russian and United States stockpiles of weapons-grade plutonium and highly enriched uranium. This plan calls for the conversion of this fissile material to MOX (mixed oxide) for use in commercial nuclear reactors for the production of electricity; and

Whereas, The DOE, working with officials of Russia, plans to transport and test MOX at Chalk River in Canada. Eventually, the material is to be transported in larger amounts to nuclear reactors in Canada, including the Bruce facilities on Lake Huron; and

Whereas, The plans for the use of this material have raised numerous grave concerns. The Great Lakes Basin holds one-fifth of the world's fresh water, ninety-five percent of our country's fresh water, and the drinking water for 40 million people. The Great Lakes are home to a large portion of the North American population, a major source of recreation, a vital component of commerce, and habitat to diverse animal and plant life. Plutonium is extremely carcinogenic, with a half life of 24,000 years. The release of this material, whether through any kind of handling or transportation accident or terrorist attack, would have an impact throughout the Great Lakes Basin; and

Whereas, If the proposed plan is implemented, plutonium shipments to Canadian reactors could take place for up to two decades. The complications of rigid security measures could also be considerable and costly. Every movement or handling of the plutonium would increase the potential for theft or other loss or damage; and

Whereas, The expenses involved in this plan, to both taxpayers and utility customers, could include the cost of upgrading aging reactors, potentially expensive fuel, and the problems of dealing with the spent plutonium fuel in both countries. In fact, the problem of finding a way to dispose of nuclear waste would only be made far more severe; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we oppose the testing, transportation, or use of warhead plutonium converted to MOX (mixed oxide) within the Great Lakes Basin, including the transportation and use of warhead plutonium converted to MOX in any United States or Canadian reactors; 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, the members of the Michigan congressional delegation, and the United States Department of Energy.

The resolution was referred to the Committee on House Oversight and Operations.

Reps. Scott, Birkholz, DeHart, Martinez, Dennis, Thomas, Wojno, Daniels, Toy, Jansen, Garcia, DeWeese, Voorhees, Cassis, Kowall, Bovin, Rivet, Vear, Pappageorge, Hager, Hansen, Jamnick, Kukuk, Lemmons, Faunce, Kilpatrick, Ehardt and Woodward offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 105.

A resolution honoring Nell G. Pierce Stott on her retirement after 37 years in the education profession.

Whereas, It is with deep appreciation of the diversity of talents that must come together for educational excellence to be possible, that we honor Nell G. Pierce Stott upon the occasion of her retirement. As Nell G. Pierce Stott brings to a close her service as a Principal, Assistant Principal, Director, Community Coordinator, and Supervisor, we add our voice of thanks with those teachers, students, and parents whose path sister Stott has crossed; and

Whereas, Nell Stott received her diploma at the Conecuh County Training School in Evergreen, Alabama; her B. S. in Music Education from Tennessee State University in Nashville, Tennessee; studied towards her doctorate at Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan; and studied toward her Child Development Associates at Schoolcraft College in Detroit. Nell knew what she needed to do, the job God whispered in her ear to perform, which she did extremely well; and

Whereas, As anyone who has spent much time around the process of education can attest, there are fewer endeavors more complex than education. The old African adage, "It takes a whole village to educate a child," certainly rings true, even in this age of computers and the Internet. Teachers, administrators, building personnel, lunch aides, bus drivers, learning assistants, and specialists all have important roles to play in helping all people become motivated and productive students. Each of these people, in turn, serves to complement the work started at home by parents and family; and

Whereas, Mrs. Nell G. Pierce Stott worked as School Community Coordinator, Director of Alternative Education, Cortland Elementary School's Assistant Principal, Henry Ford Middle School's Principal, and Director of Early Childhood Education - Kollege For Children, for the Highland Park Public Schools. She has spent her entire career teaching, mentoring, fussing, taking care of business, and loving her Highland Park community. If we didn't know what dedication and commitment looked like, all we need to do is gaze upon sister Stott and know; and

Whereas, Mrs. Nell G. Pierce Stott is a member of and Choir Director for Grace CME Church in Detroit. She loves the game of golf, is a collector of Mickey Mouse memorabilia, writes children's songs, poems, and stories; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body hereby thank Nell G. Pierce Stott for her long-standing "good works" to all the people of Highland Park as a Principal, Assistant Principal, Director, Community Coordinator, and Supervisor. May her retirement be filled with health and happiness; and be it further

Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to Mrs. Stott as evidence of our appreciation for her many years of dedicated service to children and her community.

Pending the reference of the resolution to a committee,

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

The motion prevailed, 3/5 of the members present voting therefor.

House Resolution No. 106.

A resolution honoring T & C Federal Credit Union.

Whereas, The Charter Township of Waterford and The Waterford Cultural Council have recently awarded their "1999 Business of the Year" honors to T & C Federal Credit Union; and

Whereas, T & C is proud to be a part of the Waterford Township community as a credit union whose philosophy is people helping people and a commitment to community involvement. T & C Federal Credit Union has been providing financial services to members and their families since 1936 and has six locations, including its corporate headquarters in Bloomfield Hills, its main office in Pontiac, and branches in Clarkston, Orion, Waterford, and Ypsilanti; and

Whereas, The Business of the Year award was established as a vehicle to recognize contributions to the township and its residents that go far beyond doing business as usual; and

Whereas, T & C Federal has been involved in providing leadership, as well as outstanding community involvement by both sponsoring and participating in a variety of programs such as: Waterford Schools - All Night Senior Parties, Lakeland Hawks Hockey team - Pee Wee Division, Learning for Life - Boy Scouts of America, United Way Day of Caring, Pontiac Baldwin Center, Waterford Founders Festival Corporate Sponsor, Waterford Foundation for Public Education, Waterford Open Door Outreach Center, American Heart Association Walk, and Project Walk for Warmth; and

Whereas, T & C has made significant contributions to the State of Michigan, the Charter Township of Waterford, Bloomfield Hills, Clarkston, Orion, and Ypsilanti; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we memorialize the T & C Federal Credit Union and congratulate them on being honored as Waterford Township's "1999 Business of the Year"; and be it further

Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to T & C Federal corporate headquarters in Bloomfield Hills and each of its five branches as evidence of our esteem.

House Resolution No. 107.

A resolution honoring Joe Dumars upon the occasion of his retirement from the Detroit Pistons.

Whereas, We are proud to join with family, teammates, coaches, friends, and fans in congratulating Joe Dumars for an outstanding career in NBA basketball as well as an impeccable record of community service. His standard of excellence as a citizen and as an athlete will be emulated by his contemporaries and successors for many years to come; and

Whereas, Mr. Dumars' strong and benevolent leadership has often been lauded within the Detroit Pistons, the NBA, and in his Detroit community. Joe's honorable reputation within the basketball organization and his inextinguishable energy for the sport of basketball deemed him the deserving recipient of both the NBA Walt Kennedy Citizenship Award for the 1993-1994 season and the NBA sportsmanship award for the 1996-1997 season. Joe's tireless effort on behalf of charitable organizations such as Children's Hospital have been recognized by countless citizens and community organizations. These and other activities in numerous community service endeavors led Mr. Dumars to earn Newsweek magazine's American Achievement Award during the 1994-1995 basketball season; and

Whereas, Joe Dumars' commitment to his Detroit Pistons team has been evident since being drafted during the first round in 1985. No other player has played as many seasons or games with the Detroit Pistons as Joe, making him the most tenured Piston with 1,018 games and 16,401 career points to his credit. Joe's career has been highlighted with a myriad of achievements, including impressive statistics league-wide. As the MVP of the 1989 NBA finals, Joe proved his awe-inspiring skill and unwavering dedication to the sport of basketball. Mr. Dumars has also played in six of the last nine NBA All-Star games and served as tri-captain for the gold medal winning Team USA at the 1994 World Championships; and

Whereas, As a citizen and as an athlete, Joe Dumars has repeatedly demonstrated his commitment to the City of Detroit and its citizens. He will continue to serve as a role model for the youth of Detroit, and as a most honored citizen of our fair state of Michigan; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body join with the residents of Michigan in commemorating Joe Dumars for his exceptional life accomplishments, as both a gifted athlete and a model citizen on the occasion of his retirement. May he welcome our praise for his contributions to the lives of many, and accept our best wishes for all of his future endeavors; and be it further

Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to Mr. Joe Dumars and his family, as an expression of our gratitude and esteem.
