Rep. Kevin J. Green, from the 77th District, offered the following invocation:
“Lord, thank You for delivering each of us to this chamber today safely, and for the privilege each of us enjoys in serving the people of Michigan.
Today we pray for the courage to follow Your greatest commandment: to love others as you would yourself.
We pray for the courage to forgive even when it seems impossible to forgive.
We pray for the courage to be peacemakers when it seems natural to see others as adversaries.
Lord, in the vastness of the universe and infinite scope of time, our deeds done in our present roles of service are small. Let us not forget You in the coming hours. Lay down that peace and humility, and help us work together to push forward the legislation that will lift up the men and women of this state.
In the spirit of the Christmas season, we ask that we would come together to celebrate the true meaning of Christmas and all that You have given each one of us – especially our family and friends.
We thank You for the opportunity each of us has to serve our respective districts and we ask for wisdom to carry out legislation that glorifies You. Bless the members of the House of Representatives today and let us not forget the importance of kindness, trust, and reconciliation.
I offer this prayer in Christ’s name, Amen.”

Motions and Resolutions
Reps. Durhal, Barnett, Constan, Dean, Geiss, Haugh, Huckleberry, Johnson, Robert Jones, Lemmons, Liss, Nathan, Smith, Spade, Stanley, Tlaib and Young offered the following concurrent resolution:
House Concurrent Resolution No. 35.
A concurrent resolution to urge the Secretary of the United States Department of Health and Human Services to continue the Perinatology Research Branch facility in Detroit, Michigan.
Whereas, In 1999, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) awarded a 10-year contract to house the PRB at Wayne State University. The mission of the Perinatology Research Branch (PRB) is to conduct clinical and basic research in perinatal medicine with the goal of developing diagnostic, therapeutic, and preventive strategies to improve pregnancy outcome. In addition, the mission also includes the training of physicians and scientists whose aim is to improve the healthcare of pregnant women and their unborn children; and
Whereas, The PRB has been transformational in the delivery of obstetrics care in the city of Detroit and state of Michigan. Over 15,000 pregnant women, mostly from indigent households, have received world-class care as a result of the PRB and its clinical partnership with Wayne State University. Housed in the city of Detroit, the PRB provides a racially and ethnically diverse patient population a unique and critical set of clinical access points; and
Whereas, The city of Detroit, the state of Michigan, the Detroit Medical Center, and Wayne State University have made significant investments in infrastructure to properly house the PRB at no cost to the NIH. These entities understand the value of the services the PRB brings to the region; and
Whereas, The PRB has had a tremendous economic impact on Detroit and the state of Michigan. The PRB employs over 120 individuals, mostly in high paying research and clinical positions. The PRB has also brought 150 indirect jobs due to the collaboration with Wayne State University. In addition to the jobs, the PRB has brought with it more than $200 million in federal research funds to our state over the past 10 years; and
Whereas, During the last decade, the Detroit-based PRB has had an impressive list of research accomplishments, which were made possible because of the unique resources our region has provided to the facility. The PRB has been able to collaborate with the Wayne State University School of Medicine, which is regarded as one of the top urban health research centers and an institution with a high level of expertise in obstetrics and gynecological research; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), That we urge the Secretary of the United States Department of Health and Human Services to continue the Perinatology Research Branch (PRB) facility in Detroit, Michigan; and be it further
Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the Secretary of the United States Department of Health and Human Services and to Wayne State University.
The concurrent resolution was referred to the Committee on Health Policy.
