Rep. Arlan B. Meekhof, from the 89th District, offered the following invocation:

"Great God and Father, we humbly enter Your presence today to praise You for the great God You are. Your glory and handiwork is displayed in Your care of the earth and Your love displayed to us in the form of salvation, through Jesus Your only son.

Even though You are God You desire a relationship with us and we approach You in this day with many concerns for our state. I pray that You would shower the state of Michigan with mercy as we do our best to discern Your will in guidingthis state to prosperity again. We also humbly ask for showers of actual rain. Many parts of our state are severely impacted by the lack of rain. We ask for this rain also for our farmers who rely on You for their ability to produce food for our nation.

We also ask in this day Your mercy and presence for those families that have experienced the ultimate sacrifice in the loss of a Michigan armed service member. We ask You to be close to them and comfort them in this day.

And Lord we ask You to be with us in this chamber today as we do the work of this state. We ask You to be above us to watch over us, beside us to befriend us, beneath us to carry us in times of trouble, and most importantly within us to help us show Your love to others.

In Jesus name, Amen."

Motions and Resolutions

Reps. Farrah, Caul, Clack, Condino, Constan, Garfield, Gonzales, Hammel, Johnson, Robert Jones, Knollenberg, Leland, Lemmons, McDowell, Melton, Miller, Nofs and Vagnozzi offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 158.

A resolution to concur in a tribal-state gaming compact between the Match-E-Be-Nash-She-Wish Band of Pottawatomi Indians of Michigan (the Gun Lake Band) and the State of Michigan and signed on May 9, 2007.

Whereas, Federally recognized Indian tribes have a right under federal law to operate gaming as a means of economic development within states that allow such gaming for any purpose by any person, organization, or entity. The State of Michigan permits Class III gaming to be operated by non-tribal entities under the Michigan Gaming Control and Revenue Act; and

Whereas, The State of Michigan has entered into tribal-state gaming compacts with 11 of Michigan's 12 federally recognized Indian tribes, the only federally recognized Indian tribe not having a compact being the Gun Lake Band. The Michigan Legislature has approved all 11 tribal-state gaming compacts by resolution. The Michigan Supreme Court has held that the Michigan Legislature has the authority to approve tribal-state gaming compacts by legislative resolution; and

Whereas, The Match-E-Be-Nash-She-Wish Band of Pottawatomi Indians of Michigan, which is also known as the GunLake Band, is a federally recognized Indian tribe. The principles of fairness, equity, and justice dictate that the Stateof Michigan enter into a Class III gaming compact with the Gun Lake Band on terms consistent with the tribal-state compacts previously approved by the Michigan Legislature; and

Whereas, A new tribal-state gaming compact between the State of Michigan and the Gun Lake Band (the "Gun Lake Compact") has been negotiated by the Governor and the Gun Lake Band and signed on May 9, 2007. This compact has been filed with the Clerk of the Michigan House of Representatives and is available for review. The Gun Lake Compact contains terms and conditions more beneficial to the State of Michigan than the previous 11 compacts; and

Whereas, The Gun Lake Compact contains additional and substantial regulatory provisions governing the Gun Lake Band's proposed gaming facility that are not contained in any of the 11 other tribal-state gaming compacts; and

Whereas, The Gun Lake Compact prohibits the sale of tobacco to minors at the Gun Lake Band's proposed gaming facility; and

Whereas, The Gun Lake Compact provides that persons under 21 years of age may not participate in gaming at the Gun Lake Band's proposed gaming facility; and

Whereas, The Gun Lake Compact provides additional safeguards for revenue payments to the State of Michigan when compared to the prior 11 Class III gaming compacts; and

Whereas, The Gun Lake Compact contains a potential for substantially increased revenue sharing with the State of Michigan when compared to the prior 11 compacts, and also contains a minimum of a 50 percent increase over the prior 11 compacts for payments to the State of Michigan as reimbursement for regulatory costs; and

Whereas, The Secretary of the United States Department of the Interior has issued procedures for the operation of Class III gaming by Indian tribes that permit said tribes to operate Class III gaming facilities in the absence of a tribal-state compact where states have failed to enter into a compact with such tribes; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we concur in the tribal-state gaming compact signed on May 9, 2007,and on file with the Clerk of the House of Representatives between the Match-E-Be-Nash-She-Wish Band of Pottawatomi Indians of Michigan (the Gun Lake Band) and the State of Michigan to govern the establishment of Class III gaming on Eligible Indian Lands; and be it further

Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the Governor, representatives of the Match-E-Be-Nash-She-Wish Band of Pottawatomi Indians of Michigan, and the United States Secretary of the Interior.

The resolution was referred to the Committee on Regulatory Reform.

Reps. Farrah, Wojno, Hopgood, Accavitti, Angerer, Espinoza, Robert Jones, Byrum, Donigan, Byrnes, Gaffney, Ward, Miller, Hammel, Clack, Meadows, Simpson, Vagnozzi, Constan, Leland, Hood, Wenke, Hammon, Alma Smith, Warren,Condino, Bieda, Bennett, Coulouris, Young, Johnson, Gonzales, Polidori, Nofs, Cushingberry, Moore, Virgil Smith, Nitz, Caul, Cheeks, Gillard, Lemmons, Melton, Scott, Jackson, Meisner, Kathleen Law, Griffin, Bauer, Valentine, Meltzer, Garfield, Knollenberg, Sheltrown and McDowell offered the following concurrent resolution:

House Concurrent Resolution No. 39.

A concurrent resolution to concur in a tribal-state gaming compact between the Match-E-Be-Nash-She-Wish Band of Pottawatomi Indians of Michigan (the Gun Lake Band) and the State of Michigan and signed on May 9, 2007.

Whereas, The Match-E-Be-Nash-She-Wish Band of Pottawatomi Indians of Michigan, which is also known as the Gun Lake Band, is a federally recognized Indian tribe. The principles of fairness, equity, and justice dictate that the State of Michigan enter into a Class III gaming compact with the Gun Lake Band on terms consistent with the tribal-state compacts previously approved by the Michigan Legislature; and

Whereas, The Gun Lake Compact prohibits the sale of tobacco to minors at the Gun Lake Band's proposed gaming facility; and

Whereas, The Gun Lake Compact provides that persons under 21 years of age may not participate in gaming at the Gun Lake Band's proposed gaming facility; and

Whereas, The Gun Lake Compact provides additional safeguards for revenue payments to the State of Michigan when compared to the prior 11 Class III gaming compacts; and

Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), That we concur in the tribal-state gaming compactsigned on May 9, 2007, and on file with the Clerk of the House of Representatives between the Match-E-Be-Nash-She-WishBand of Pottawatomi Indians of Michigan (the Gun Lake Band) and the State of Michigan to govern the establishment of Class III gaming on Eligible Indian Lands; and be it further

The concurrent resolution was referred to the Committee on Regulatory Reform.

Meeting held on: Tuesday, July 24, 2007

Present: Reps. Wojno, Kathleen Law, Condino, Constan, Polidori, Young, Hoogendyk, Hune and David Law

The Committee on Education, by Rep. Melton, Chair, reported

House Resolution No. 81.

A resolution to memorialize the United States Congress to enact the Education Begins at Home Act.

(For text of resolution, see House Journal No. 41, p. 571.)

With the recommendation that the following substitute (H-1) be adopted and that the resolution then be adopted.

Substitute for House Resolution No. 81.

A resolution to memorialize the United States Congress to enact the Education Begins at Home Act.

Whereas, Each year, an estimated 2.7 million children in America are abused or neglected, including 900,000 cases thatare actually investigated and verified by overburdened state child protection systems. Nationally, more than 1,400children die from abuse or neglect each year. Over half of them were previously unknown to child protective services. In Michigan during 2005, 147,628 families were investigated for suspected child maltreatment. In those families investigated, 28,154children were confirmed to be victims of child abuse and neglect. Of all confirmed cases of abuse and neglect, more than a third involved children three years old or younger. Another 19,265 children were in out-of-home placement as the result of child abuse and neglect and delinquency; and

Whereas, Children who survive abuse or neglect likely carry the emotional scars for life, while studies also show that being abused or neglected multiplies the risk that a child will grow up to be violent. The best available research indicates that, based on confirmed cases of child abuse and neglect in just one year, of these children, there will be an additional 35,000 adult violent criminals and more than 250 murderers who would never have become violent criminals if not for the abuse or neglect they endured as children. Fortunately, evidence-based in-home parent coaching programs can prevent child abuse and neglect, and reduce later crime and violence. In general, these programs provide voluntary coaching to parents of children up to five years old in home settings for some period of time; and

Whereas, A number of programs exist to help parents. The Nurse Family Partnership randomly assigned interested at-risk pregnant women to receive in-home visits by nurses starting before the birth of the first child and continuing until the child was two years old. The program cut abuse and neglect among at-risk children in half according to research published in a leading medical journal. In addition, children of mothers who received this coaching had 59% fewer arrests by age 15 than the children of mothers who were not coached. Yet this program reaches only a tiny fraction of eligible parents. Other major home visiting programs include Parents as Teachers, Healthy Families America, Early Head Start, Home Instruction for Parents of Preschool Youngsters, and the Parent-Child Home Program. However, hundreds of thousands of at-risk mothers across the country receive no in-home parent coaching. The impacts of child abuse and neglect cost Americans $94 billion a year. In 2005, the direct cost of child abuse and neglect in Michigan was an estimated $531,744,598. Prevention efforts such as Michigan's 0-3 Secondary Prevention Initiative, which reflects the use of a variety of program models, saved an estimated $41,268,095 in direct costs associated with child abuse and neglect; and

Whereas, In the 110th Congress, Senators Bond and Clinton and Representatives Davis and Platts, have reintroduced the bipartisan Education Begins at Home Act (S. 667/H.R. 2343) to provide grants to help states establish or expand voluntary in-home parent coaching programs for families with young children. The Education Begins at Home Act authorizes $400 million over three years in grants from the United States Department of Health and Human Services for voluntary in-home parent coaching programs. The Education Begins at Home Act also authorizes $100 million over three years in grants for voluntary in-home parent coaching programs for English language learners and military families. These programs will strengthen Early Head Start, which includes center-based and in-home parent coaching components. Each of the major home visiting programs operates in Michigan, and the Education Begins at Home Act allows program flexibility so that states are not tied to one particular model. These voluntary programs will help new parents learn skills to promote healthy child development and be better parents; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we memorialize the United States Congress to enact the Education Begins at Home Act. We encourage sponsors of the bill to include separate funding authorization levels for each of the next five years, to target funding first toward jurisdictions with the greatest need, and to ensure that funding priority be given to evidence-based approaches that deliver effective results in improving outcomes for children and families; 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 and substitute were laid over one day under the rules.
