“Mr. Speaker and members of the House:

While I support binding arbitration, it needed the two amendments that I proposed to make this acceptable for local municipalities. Unions should have the right to binding arbitration within limits of the ability of the local government to pay. The arbitrator should also truly arbitrate and be allowed to pick between the last two best offers of the parties; thereby, drawing the two parties close together before binding arbitration is demanded.”

House Resolution No. 401.

A resolution designating July 2008 as Michigan Craft Beer Month and commending the Michigan craft brewers.

Whereas, Michigan craft brewers are a vibrant affirmation and expression of Michigan entrepreneurial traditions, operating as community-based small businesses and providing employment for more than 1,000 workers; and

Whereas, Michigan has craft brewers in every region of the state and more than 70 craft brewers statewide; and

Whereas, The Michigan Brewers Guild is celebrating its 11 year anniversary of its Michigan Summer Beer Festival this July; and

Whereas, Michigan craft brewers support Michigan agriculture by purchasing beet sugar, cherries, and apples grown in Michigan; and

Whereas, Michigan craft brewers promote Michigan’s spirit of independence through a renaissance in hand-crafted beers like those first brought to Michigan by European settlers and produced here by our forefathers, including Bernhard Stroh, for the enjoyment of the citizenry; and

Whereas, Michigan craft brewers strive to educate legal drinking-age residents about the differences in beer flavor, aroma, color, alcohol content, body, and other complex variables, as well as historic brewing traditions, beer history, and gastronomic qualities of beer; and

Whereas, Michigan craft brewers champion the message of responsible enjoyment to their customers and work within their communities to prevent alcohol abuse and underage drinking; and

Whereas, Michigan craft brewers produce more than 100 distinct styles of flavorful beers, the quality and diversity of which have made Michigan the envy of many beer-drinking states, thereby contributing to balanced trade by reducing Michigan dependence on imported and other regional beers, supporting Michigan exports, and promoting Michigan tourism; and

Whereas, Michigan craft brewers are vested in the future, health, and welfare of their communities as employers providing a diverse array of quality local jobs, as contributors to the local tax base, and as committed sponsors of a broad range of vital community institutions and philanthropic causes, including not-for-profit housing development associations, chambers of commerce, humane societies, athletic teams, and medical research; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body designate July 2008 as Michigan Craft Beer Month as a celebration of the contributions that Michigan craft brewers have made to the state’s communities, economy, and history; and be it further

Resolved, That we commend Michigan craft brewers for providing jobs, improving the balance of trade, supporting Michigan agriculture, and educating residents about the history and culture of beer while promoting the responsible consumption of beer as a beverage of moderation.

Pending the reference of the resolution to a committee,

Rep. Tobocman moved that Rule 71 be suspended and the resolution be considered at this time.

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

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

The resolution was adopted.

Reps. Meltzer, Nitz, Garfield, Horn, Proos, Acciavatti, Moss, Pavlov, Palmer, Calley, Agema, Casperson, Shaffer, LaJoy, Pastor, Rick Jones, Caswell, Stakoe, Knollenberg and Moolenaar offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 402.

A resolution to memorialize the Congress of the United States to lift the ban on new off-shore oil and gas drilling.

Whereas, The rapid rise in energy costs is reverberating throughout the economy of our state and nation. The impact of the increase in the per-barrel cost of oil to record levels is being felt immediately because of skyrocketing gasoline costs. The fact that the overall costs are yet to be felt as this ripples through every enterprise is a source of serious concern; and

Whereas, Even as every single household and business tries to cope with oil and gas costs far beyond those of only a short time ago, a potentially significant source of new energy—within the boundaries of our own country—remains untapped due to the longstanding ban Congress imposed on new off-shore drilling in the continental shelf along the coastlines of much of the country; and

Whereas, The potential for the development of these new oil and gas fields at home remains out of reach, and with it comes greater reliance on foreign sources than might otherwise be necessary if we were to access domestically what could be up to 18 billion barrels of oil over time; and

Whereas, Off-shore drilling is not an unproven technology. There is a large enough volume of experience in our country alone, especially in the Gulf of Mexico, to assure that safety and environmental concerns are not compromised in new areas of exploration or development; and

Whereas, The President has proposed that Congress lift the ban on new off-shore drilling to permit the development of these areas. This proposal is a realistic, positive step we can take to address a problem that demands action. While this action cannot bring instant relief and will not bring new oil sources on line for years, this is no reason to continue a ban that does not serve the best interests of the American people. Lifting the ban would send a powerful message to the world that our country will do what it needs to do to develop its own resources. Such a shift would also likely reduce a bit of the market speculation that may have contributed to the escalation in oil pricing of late; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we memorialize the Congress of the United States to lift the ban on new off-shore oil and gas drilling; 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, and the members of the Michigan congressional delegation.

The resolution was referred to the Committee on Energy and Technology.

Reps. Vagnozzi, Ball, Bieda, Booher, Brown, Clack, Condino, Constan, Dean, Gonzales, Green, Hammel, Hammon, Hansen, Hopgood, Horn, Huizenga, Robert Jones, Kathleen Law, LeBlanc, Leland, Marleau, Meadows, Meekhof, Miller, Palmer, Pearce, Polidori, Proos, Sak, Shaffer, Sheltrown, Alma Smith, Spade, Tobocman and Valentine offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 403.

A resolution to urge the state’s public schools to work with Michigan’s banking and financial institutions to increase financial literacy among our students.

Whereas, It is a commonly accepted fact that many Americans are significantly deficient in their understanding of personal finance matters that they will likely face in their lives. While the ongoing crisis in the number of mortgage foreclosures is drawing attention now, the longstanding problem of people becoming overwhelmed by credit card and other types of debt also remains a major problem; and

Whereas, Numerous studies and surveys have documented a lack of understanding of the basics of handling money. With our nation’s low saving rates and the steady disappearance of traditional pension arrangements and the move to self-directed retirement vehicles, the need for a solid grasp of personal finance is more acute than it has ever been; and

Whereas, In acknowledgment of this need, the Michigan Legislature amended the Revised School Code, 1976 PA 451, in 2002 by adding a section (MCL § 380.1165) to require the Department of Education to develop a model financial literacy program. This amendatory act, 2002 PA 111, encourages each school district and public school academy to adopt and implement the model programs developed. The legislation also provides that if federal funds are available for these purposes, the money would be distributed through a grant system. With the limited resources available for new initiatives of any kind, a lack of funding remains a notable obstacle to financial literacy efforts; and

Whereas, A possible way to increase the number of schools utilizing the financial literacy instruction programs might be to elicit the support of the state’s financial institutions. The banking, insurance, and investment community has an obvious stake in promoting a higher level of knowledge among the citizenry. The support of our state’s banking institutions could significantly advance the Department of Education’s efforts to reach the full potential of their programs; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we urge the state’s public schools to work with Michigan’s banking and financial institutions to increase financial literacy instruction among our students; and be it further

Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the Michigan Bankers Association, the Michigan Credit Union League, the Office of Financial and Insurance Services, the Superintendent of Public Instruction, and the Michigan Department of Education.

The resolution was referred to the Committee on Education.

Reps. Vagnozzi, Ball, Condino, Dean, Gonzales, Hammel, Robert Jones, Kathleen Law, Alma Smith and Valentine offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 404.

A resolution to memorialize Congress to enact legislation to set a national speed limit.

Whereas, Demand for oil and consumption of gasoline is rising all over the world and in the United States. Oil for the transportation sector accounts for two of every three barrels of crude oil consumed in the United States. Gasoline alone amounts to half of this nation’s oil consumption, and transportation causes almost half of greenhouse gas emissions; and

Whereas, The steadily increasing demand for oil, in the face of supply that is virtually static, is raising the price of oil per barrel. Subsequently the price of a gallon of gas is skyrocketing and breaking the back of U.S. industry and consumers. Americans must reduce our consumption of gas to, in turn, reduce our dependence on foreign oil and alleviate some of the pressure at the pump; and

Whereas, The marketplace is effectively spurring research and development into alternative energies and technology to reduce our oil consumption in the future. In the meantime, there is an immediate step that can be taken to bring some relief and provide additional benefits.

Whereas, Setting a lower national speed limit would decrease gasoline consumption, reduce vehicle emissions, and reduce the incidence and severity of traffic accidents. For every mile per hour faster than 55 that a vehicle travels, fuel efficiency drops by about 1 percent. The drop-off increases at a greater rate above 65 miles per hour. Most cars on the road today reach optimum fuel efficiency at speeds between 45 and 55 miles per hour. Lowering the national speed limit to 55 miles per hour could cut vehicle emissions by 10 percent. There is ample evidence of the impact of such a national policy. The 55 miles per hour national speed limit, set in response to the 1973 oil crisis, was successfully implemented for 21 years from 1974 to 1995. It helped curb consumption of gas, lowered fatality rates, and increased highway safety; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we memorialize Congress to enact legislation to set a national speed limit; 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, and the members of the Michigan congressional delegation.

The resolution was referred to the Committee on Transportation.
