Rep. David Palsrok, from the 101st District, offered the following invocation:
"Dear Lord, thank You for this day and thank You for allowing us to serve the great people of this state.
Lord, as we are on the eve of Veteran's day let us remember all those who have served this nation in the great pursuit of freedom... justice... and liberty. We know it is their sacrifices that have protected us and have made this nation great.
Lord, we ask that You be with the many veterans who still suffer from the deep scars of war. Those scars may be physical, psychological, or emotional we ask Lord that You place Your healing hands upon them as they travel the almost endless road of recovery.
Lord, we ask You to also be in the hearts of the families that may have lost their loved ones in the ultimate sacrifice.
Oh Lord, also be with our troops today and everyday as many of our great patriots are in harms way. We ask that You protect them in the palm of Your hand as it is they who protect us.
We give thanks Lord in the opportunity You have given us. Let us use our mouths to communicate, our ears to listen, our brains to understand, our hearts to feel compassion and our hands to lift up our neighbors.
We ask for Your strength, wisdom, courage, and understanding.
We pray in Your name... Amen."

Rep. Waters moved that Reps. Brown and Smith be excused from today's session.

Rep. Robertson, 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:
In my first term in the House of Representatives in 1991, I was a co-sponsor of the Helmet Law repeal. I continue to believe in the individual liberties which motivated me to co-sponsor the bill at that time and are at the heart of the proponents arguments in favor of passage of HB 4325. This is one of the most difficult, if not the most difficult votes I have cast in my term in office. I opposed this bill because I believe the goal of HB 4325 proponents cannot-and will not- be achieved until a more comprehensive bill can be drafted to address the concerns raised by those who believe that the repeal of Michigan's helmet law will result in higher insurance costs for all Michigan residents under Michigan's unique No-fault auto insurance system. I believe those concerns have merit, and are the reason attempts to repeal the mandatory helmet law have continuously failed for more than two decades. This bill may be acted upon by the Senate in the few remaining days of this legislative session. If, however, it is not acted upon, and today's vote ends up a merely symbolic one, I look forward to working with ABATE and all other interested parties in the coming legislative session to craft a legislative solution that addresses the concerns of all Michigan residents, can secure passage of both the House and Senate and be signed into law by the Governor. I believe in adult choice. With resolution of the insurance issues, that goal can be achieved."
Rep. Bieda, 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 4325 because of concerns of how it would affect the receipt of claims from the Michigan Catastrophic Claims Administration, which pays for health care needs resulting from the most serious traffic accidents in which private insurance caps are exceeded. It has been argued that eliminating the helmet requirement will dramatically increase these claims and ultimately the cost of insurance for Michigan citizens. Although I appreciate and respect the sentiments of those who argue for the abolition of this law, I think this Legislature owes the greater public the consideration of how this substantial change in the law may affect insurance rates. I say this in deference to the expense borne by insurance customers in this state, and the potential for far greater increases in rates that could result from this change in the law. Just this last summer, Michigan residents were hit with a twenty-seven dollar increase per vehicle for the Michigan Catastrophic Claims Association, and if the recent experiences of other states that repealed the mandatory adult helmet law are any indication, Michigan can expect to see a dramatic increase in motorcycle fatalities if this law is adopted. I note that upon abolition of similar laws in several states, notably Kentucky, which experienced a fifty percent increase in motorcycle fatalism; Louisiana, which experienced a one hundred percent increase; Arkansas which saw a twenty-nine percent increase in fatalities and Texas which saw an increase of thirty-seven percent. Indeed, a study at the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute demonstrates that repeal of a mandatory and universally applied motorcycle helmet law in favor of an age-restricted helmet law has the following effects: Observed helmet use decreases from 99 to 40 percent; fatality rates increase from 38-70 percent; severe brain injury rates increase from 50-360 percent; and, hospital costs for motorcycle injuries increase from 38-50 percent.
Clearly the weight of the evidence is that motorcycle helmets reduce injury severity, that repeal of helmet laws decreases helmet use, and that states that repeal universal helmet laws experience increased motorcycle fatalities and injuries. While I fully believe that an informed and educated motorcycle driver can make his or her assessment of the risk, the rate payers of Michigan should not be subjected to the increased costs that another's freedoms may entail. The current law is not simply a matter of protecting individuals from themselves. The cost of treating injuries suffered in motorcycle accidents is high, and in many cases the public must indirectly bear those costs (via surcharges on vehicle insurance for catastrophic claims, as one example).
If there was a way of ensuring that others will not be paying the increased insurance costs associated with the increased risk, I would feel more inclined to support this bill. After all, adults should be treated as adults. But as it stands, with Michigan's No Fault Insurance statutes, House Bill 4325 carries the risk of higher insurance rates, and that is something I cannot support. Thank you."

______
Reps. Waters, Murphy and Phillips, 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 House Bill 6314 because it is legally flawed and morally offensive, and because its outrageously expedited passage through this lame duck House session was disrespectful of both the legislative process and the citizens of this state.
The bill would reverse statutory language that currently serves an important purpose in the protection of public health and safety. Local units of government have the primary responsibility to protect the public health and public safety of their communities, including in particular their public water supplies. The current statute appropriately serves to balance the responsibility of local units of government regarding local public health and safety, with the regulatory responsibility of the state regarding energy accessibility and rates.
Local consent in such cases is a right guaranteed by Article 7, Section 29 of the Michigan Constitution, which states: 'No person, partnership, association or corporation, public or private, operating a public utility shall have the right to the use of the highways, streets, alleys or other public places of any county, township, city or village for wires, poles, pipes, tracks, conduits or other utility facilities, without the consent of the duly constituted authority of the county, township, city or village' and that 'Except as otherwise provided in this constitution the right of all counties, townships, cities and villages to the reasonable control of their highways, streets, alleys and public places is hereby reserved to such local units of government.' Nevertheless, the unreasonably rushed passage of this bill did not allow for the consideration of this serious legal concern.
Furthermore, the question of whether or not it's good public policy to locate liquid petroleum pipelines in the rights-of-way of Michigan's busiest highways warrants public discussion and a thorough study of potential risks from both accidental damage and intentional damage. Locating a pipeline on a highway easement may decrease the pipeline's likely exposure to certain types of third party activity (namely excavation by residential or commercial developers) but it will increase the pipeline's likely exposure to other types of third party activity. An average of 40,500 vehicles per day travel on the section of I-96 at issue in the Lansing case, causing significant vibration. Also, maintenance and construction activities using heavy equipment take place regularly on highways and on highway rights-of-way as roads get repaired, widened or replaced.
Finally, and I think most egregiously, this bill is an attempt to force the implementation of a unjust decision made by members of the Public Service Commission in 2001-02: a decision that would discriminate against racial minorities and low income persons. House Bill 6314 will also pave the way for further instances of environmental discrimination in the future. If decisions involving the placement of liquid petroleum pipelines and other potential environmental hazards are allowed to be made solely at the highest levels of government, then it is only those with the greatest power and influence on the highest levels of state and federal government who will have their voices heard."

House Resolution No. 326.
A resolution offered as a memorial for Richard Headlee.
Whereas, Richard Headlee was a man devoted to God, family, and country. He spoke as a straight-shooter, never beating around the bush to curry favor or obscure his views; and
Whereas, In his public life, he remained a man of principle, and his views were clear-headed and consistent; and
Whereas, He believed passionately in a free society, and knew that preserving freedom required not just eternal vigilance, but bold and determined action; and
Whereas, He didn't run for governor because he wanted to be "in charge" or because he craved the limelight, but because he was a living example of the ancient republican ideal: the citizen who sets down his plow to put right what is wrong and serve his community; and
Whereas, Action was a natural extension of who Dick was, and Michigan is demonstrably better for it; and
Whereas; His tireless work on behalf of taxpayers, enshrined in 1978 in our state constitution's "Headlee Amendment," gave Michiganians a powerful shield in the battle to restrain government excess; and
Whereas, His resolve inspired and energized a new generation of leaders, and his forceful yet congenial persuasiveness, often wrapped in clever verse or rhetorical flourish, won the hearts and minds of countless citizens; and
Whereas, Dick Headlee was a genuine Michigan statesman. We are grateful for his contributions to our taxpayers and our state; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body honor the life of Richard Headlee; and be it further
Resolved, That we extend our deepest sympathies to his wife, Mary, and the entire Headlee family.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.
