Rep. Rick Olson, from the 55th District, offered the following invocation:
“Heavenly Father, thank You for this day. Thank You for this great state of ours. And thank You for our ancestors who years ago took the raw wilderness and through hard labor and the genius of vision and imagination turned:
~ forest into productive field
~ field into rural village and
~ village into thriving city
We come together today seeking Your aid and wisdom to assist us in making weighty decisions on behalf of the people of the state. Lord, we ask You to
•dispel hostility and darkness from this chamber so that we can be enlightened.
•dispel intransigence so that we may cooperate and act
•dispel vested interests so that we may all be concerned with and work toward the common good.
Lord, may our deliberations and our labor help us to make our beloved state of Michigan:
•more beautiful
•our lands more fertile
•our citizens more tolerant of all men, women and children of every race, creed, color and national origin
•our leaders more bold to face the hard decisions needed for this state
•our people more highly educated and productive and
•our state once again a prosperous state, even better than in years past.
Amen.”

House Resolution No. 260.
A resolution to declare May 2012 as Bike Month in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, An estimated two million Michiganders ride bicycles because it is a viable and environmentally sound form of transportation and recreation, an excellent form of fitness, and provides quality of life and a sense of place; and
Whereas, Thousands of people throughout Michigan will experience the joys of bicycling during the month of May through educational programs, commuting events, trail work days, helmet promotions, and charity rides; and
Whereas, In 2012, thousands of cyclists from across the country will participate in over 300 organized Michigan cycling events to experience our beautiful scenery, many parks, attractions, and historic sites; and
Whereas, Bicyclists are recognized as legitimate roadway users with the same rights and responsibilities as automobile drivers; and
Whereas, Teaching bicyclists and motorists to share the road is important to ensure the safety and comfort of all users; and
Whereas, Michigan currently has the most mileage of rail-trails in the nation; and
Whereas, Michigan has seven nationally recognized Bicycles Friendly Communities, two Bicycle Friendly Universities and numerous Bicycle Friendly Businesses; and
Whereas, Michigan currently has the most complete streets policies in the nation with at least 73 local ordinances and resolutions that ensure bicyclists will be accommodated in future transportation projects; and
Whereas, Michigan annually hosts the most Ride of Silence events in the world, an international event to honor injured and killed cyclists; and
Whereas, For two consecutive years, Michigan has applied for designation of a U.S. Bicycle Route (USBR) and will be the first state in the country to have newly designated north-south and east-west USBR’s; and
Whereas, Michigan will have 811 miles of USBR’s once USBR 35 is designated. This is second only to Virginia which has 838 miles of USBR’s; and
Whereas, Michigan’s own Horatio Earle led the Good Roads Movement that banded millions of American bicyclists together to promote safer cycling, which resulted in the creation of the Michigan State Highway Department (now MDOT) and Woodward Ave becoming the first mile of concrete highway in the world; and
Whereas, May has been declared National Bike Month by the League of Michigan Bicyclists, Michigan Trails and Greenways Alliance, and the Michigan Mountain Biking Association to increase awareness about bicycling opportunities through organized activities such as bike-to-work days and bicycle rodeos for children; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare May 2012 as Bike Month in the state of Michigan; and be it further
Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to Secretary of State Ruth Johnson.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.
Reps. Walsh, LeBlanc, Barnett, Crawford, Heise, Hooker, Knollenberg, Liss, Price and Talabi offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 261.
A resolution to congratulate the Republic of China (Taiwan) on its 20th anniversary of participating in the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum.
Whereas, The Republic of China (Taiwan) in 2012 is celebrating 20 years of Taiwan’s participation in the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) forum and its active role in promoting economic cooperation in the Asia-Pacific region, particularly in the areas of broadening opportunities for digital computing, green technologies and renewable energy, improving crisis management for small-size and medium-size enterprises, and establishing a research center for typhoon and society; and
Whereas, The Republic of China (ROC) is a major trading nation with the world’s 18th-largest economy as of 2011, has dramatically improved its record on human rights in the last two decades, and has taken great steps forward to enter the world arena as a trusted partner; and
Whereas, Taiwan continues to be praised as a beacon of democracy for Asia, having successfully completed its parliamentary elections and its fifth direct, popular presidential election on January 14, 2012, with fairness, accountability, and high voter turnout, and Taiwan is preparing for the inauguration of Ma Ying-jeou to a second term as ROC president on May 20, 2012; and
Whereas, Taiwan has a strong economic and historical relationship with the United States and has a vibrant economy, ranking in 2011 as the United States’ 9th-largest trading partner, with U.S.-Taiwan trade worth a total of $62.12 billion, and as the United States’ 13th-largest export market worldwide. Moreover, this robust trade and our shared values of freedom and democracy greatly benefit both sides; and
Whereas, Taiwan’s economic, cultural and educational ties with Michigan run deep and there are greater opportunities for exports of Michigan-grown agricultural goods to Taiwan, the world’s 6th-largest market for U.S. agricultural products, and for further economic cooperation and technical exchanges in emerging sectors, such as high-speed rail transit, renewable energy, photovoltaics, nanotechnology, and healthcare. Hundreds of Taiwanese students enroll in Michigan colleges and universities every year; business, professional, legislative and other delegations exchange visits regularly; and cultural, educational and teacher exchanges continue to flourish, strengthening friendships and enhancing relations between Michigan and Taiwan; and
Whereas, Taiwan’s absence from international organizations has impeded Taiwan’s ability to participate in global climate initiatives and to respond to natural disasters like Typhoon Morakot, which struck Taiwan in the summer of 2009. This natural disaster was gratefully alleviated by the assistance of dozens of international organizations and nations that stepped up to help including the United States, which supplied military equipment for rescue and recovery operations; and
Whereas, Aviation safety has become a major global concern since 2001 and Taiwan is a key air transport hub in the Asia-Pacific region with more than one million flights passing through the Taipei Flight Information Region and with one of the world’s largest cargo volume airports in Taoyuan International Airport; and
Whereas, Taiwan seeks greater regional integration in the Asian-Pacific and welcomes the opportunity presented by the United States announcement at the 2011 APEC leaders’ meeting of its intent to not only join the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), but to expand TPP membership in the future to include other countries, such as Taiwan; and
Whereas, Taiwan has been added by the United States government as a candidate for the U.S. Visa Waiver Program, for which Taiwan is grateful to the United States and Taiwan’s many American supporters in this regard; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body congratulate the Republic of China (Taiwan) on its 20th anniversary of participating in the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum. We commend Taiwan on their successful presidential and parliamentary elections in 2012, and express continued support of Michigan’s cordial relations with Taiwan and for increasing Taiwan’s international space as part of the global community. We affirm our support for Taiwan’s efforts to secure entry to the TPP, along with the United States and other friendly Asia-Pacific Rim countries. We reaffirm our backing of the cordial relations between Michigan and Taiwan and for the meaningful participation of Taiwan in the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) to increase Taiwan’s international space and contribution to the global community; and be it further
Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to Governor Rick Snyder, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, UNFCCC Executive Secretary Christiana Figueres, ICAO Secretary General Raymond Benjamin, and the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Chicago.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.

House Resolution No. 262.
A resolution to declare May 13-19, 2012, as InfantSee Week in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, The most critical stages of vision development occur in the first year of a child’s life; and
Whereas, Undetected eye and vision problems can lead to permanent vision impairment or loss of life; and
Whereas, 1 in 10 children is at risk from undiagnosed eye and vision problems; and
Whereas, 1 in 30 children will be affected by amblyopia – a leading cause of vision loss in people younger than 45 years; and
Whereas, Undetected vision problems can contribute to a decrease in a child’s quality of life, may lead to developmental and behavioral difficulties which impede classroom learning, as well as increase the costs to society; and
Whereas, Early detection of vision problems is the best way to treat and prevent permanent vision impairment; and
Whereas, Member optometrists of the American Optometric Association and the Vision Care Institute of Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Inc., have partnered to create InfantSee, a public health program to provide a one-time, no-cost eye assessment for infants six to twelve months; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare May 13-19, 2012, as InfantSee Week in the state of Michigan. We commend the members of the Michigan Optometric Association and the optometry profession on the fourth anniversary of the InfantSee program for voluntarily dedicating their expertise and services to the infants of Michigan; and be it further
Resolved, That we encourage parents to schedule an InfantSee assessment for their infants.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.

______
Reps. Barnett, Townsend and Stapleton, having reserved their right to explain their nay vote, made the following statement:
“Mr. Speaker and members of the House:
When House Bill 4992 passed the House, the bill only dealt with one issue- removing ballot instruction from the ballot and placing it elsewhere. Today, this bill comes back to us from the Senate in a very different form and it is now a Christmas tree elections bill providing special treatment for one political party and changing laws which they find inconvenient to follow. First, the bill makes an unnecessary change to the dates political parties are allowed to hold their nominating state conventions. The only interested party to appear in support of the bill in committee—the Michigan Republican Party—should have known the timing as it currently exists in law and planned appropriately. They could have simply moved back the commencement of their convention by one day in order to avoid the problem. Instead, they are choosing to change a state law. Second, the House Majority are changing the way candidates appear on the ballot to allow nicknames. At a time when the legislature should be focused on passing legislation that creates jobs, restores education funding and provides for a fair tax policy, we are instead passing unnecessary legislation regarding state conventions and using nicknames on the ballot to lessen any inconvenience for one political party.”

______
Rep. Hooker, 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 this bill because it replaces a bonding required by grain operators. Even though it is a decrease in costs for operators I believe that they can pass this fee on to users. I oppose increasing taxes and fee increases.”
Rep. Agema, 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:
Voted NO on SB 887/888 raising the fees for grain elevators. Even though it eliminates the bonding requirement (which I agree with), we could have not raised the fee and found that small amount of money elsewhere in a $48 billion budget.”
