Rep. Bill LaVoy, from the 17th District, offered the following invocation:

“American Indian Prayer

Favorite of Chief Yellow Hawk of Sioux Nation

O Great Spirit, Whose voice I hear in the wind and Whose breath gives life to all the world, Hear me,

I am one of Your children, I am small and weak. I need Your strength and wisdom. Let me walk in beauty, and make my eyes ever behold the red and purple sunset.

Make my hands respect the things You have made and my ears sharp to hear Your voice.

Make me wise so that I may understand the things You have taught my people.

Let me learn the lesson You have hidden in every leaf and rock.

I seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy, MYSELF.

Make me always come to You with clean hands and straight eyes, so when life fades, as the fading sunset, my spirit may come to You without shame.”

______

Rep. Hobbs moved that Rep. Robinson be excused from today’s session.

The motion prevailed.

Motions and Resolutions

Reps. Kesto, McCready, Crawford, Howrylak, Kowall, Jacobsen, Brown, Durhal, Geiss, Goike, Heise, Hovey-Wright, Lori, Poleski, Price, Roberts and Slavens offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 137.

A resolution to declare May 15, 2013, as Chaldean American Day in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, One hundred thirty thousand Chaldeans, the largest population outside of Iraq, reside in the state of Michigan, and

Whereas, Chaldeans, since migrating to America during the 1920’s, have continued to use their strong work ethic to contribute to the growth of Michigan through the establishment of more than 15,000 Chaldean-owned businesses across the state; and

Whereas, The Chaldean population has consistently proven their entrepreneurial spirit with nearly 60 percent of the community owning at least one business and 80 percent of all food stores in the Detroit area alone; and

Whereas, The population of Chaldean Americans continues to grow in the state of Michigan, since the Iraqi Chaldean refugees began migrating in search of better economic, political, and religious opportunities; and

Whereas, The Chaldean American community works to help the refugees adjust and become contributing citizens to the Great Lakes State through business, philosophy, language, and cuisine; and

Whereas, The Chaldean Community Foundation provides social services to more than 8,000 people annually at their Sterling Heights and Southfield offices by advancing the needs of the Chaldean American community and the communities in which they live and work through education, charitable giving, and advocacy; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare May 15, 2013, as Chaldean American Day in the state of Michigan. We acknowledge the contributions of this innovative and entrepreneurial community as an important part of Michigan’s diverse history; and be it further

Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be sent to the Chaldean American Chamber of Commerce as evidence of the highest esteem of the members of the Michigan Legislature.

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

The resolution was adopted.

Reps. Brinks, Dillon, Segal, Lipton, Durhal, Santana, Stallworth, Roberts, Tlaib, Hovey-Wright, Faris, Cavanagh, Schor, Kosowski, Haugh, Smiley, Greimel, Knezek, Talabi, Driskell and Slavens offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 138.

A resolution to urge the Department of Community Health to promote programs to identify and address inequities in the prevention, treatment, and research of diseases threatening the health of women.

Whereas, There is substantial research indicating that women do not receive the same level of health care as men. Women are less often referred for diagnostic tests, are less represented in health studies, and are less often treated for diseases compared to men with the same condition. There is considerable evidence that women receive less aggressive treatment for certain illnesses, including cardiovascular problems, than men with similar symptoms; and

Whereas, Physiological differences between men and women contribute to significant distinctions in how certain diseases are diagnosed and treated and the levels of attention from the medical research community. Women smokers are far more likely to develop lung cancer, far more vulnerable to HIV in contacts with men, and far more likely to live in a long-term facility. Women also face difficulties with insurance beyond those faced by men; and

Whereas, In spite of efforts by women’s groups to achieve parity in treatment and research, there are many aspects of health care that need to be examined before true equity is realized; and

Whereas, Government agencies and policies play an important role in promoting public health. Public funding for programs, initiatives to increase public awareness of health problems, and encouragement of research can make an enormous difference in how a specific problem is addressed; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we urge the Department of Community Health to promote programs to identify and address inequities in the prevention, treatment, and research of diseases threatening the health of women; and be it further

Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the Department of Community Health.

The resolution was referred to the Committee on Health Policy.

Reps. Lamonte, Dillon, Segal, Lipton, Durhal, Stallworth, Santana, Roberts, Tlaib, Faris, Hovey-Wright, Cavanagh, Schor, Kosowski, Haugh, Knezek, Greimel, Smiley, Talabi, Driskell and Slavens offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 139.

A resolution to express the sense of this legislative body that the state of Michigan should continue its efforts to reduce the high rates of teen pregnancies.

Whereas, More than 300,000 teenagers become pregnant each year in the United States; and

Whereas, The pregnancy rate for Michigan females aged 15-19 years old in 2008 was 51.1 per 1,000, and the birth rate for Michigan females aged 15-19 years old in 2006 was 30.1 per 1,000, resulting in 12,322 babies. This birth rate marked a 4 percent increase from 2005; and

Whereas, Despite progress over the last decade, 3 in 10 teenagers in the United States becomes pregnant, the highest teen pregnancy rate among comparable countries. After 14 straight years of decline, the national teen birth rate rose by 5 percent between 2005 and 2007; and

Whereas, Latina and African American teen girls are more likely than not to become pregnant before the age of 20, and Native American teens have a birth rate more than double that of non-Hispanic white teens; and

Whereas, Teen pregnancy is closely linked to a number of critical social issues, such as poverty, educational attainment, involvement in the criminal justice and child welfare systems, and more. Teen childbearing is estimated to cost taxpayers in this country $9.1 billion each year, most of which is due to costs associated with negative social and health outcomes for the children of teen parents; and

Whereas, A child is 9 times more likely to grow up in poverty if he or she is born to unmarried teen parents who have not yet completed high school. Less than half of mothers who have a child before they turn 18 ever graduate from high school, and less than two percent of mothers who have children before 18 have a college degree by age 30. Children of teen mothers are more likely to be born prematurely and at low birth weight. Children of teen parents are twice as likely to suffer abuse and neglect than would occur if their mothers had delayed childbearing and

Whereas, Fully 73 percent of adults and a plurality of teens wish that teens were getting more information about both abstinence and contraception; now, therefore be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this body believe that the state of Michigan should continue its efforts to reduce the high rates of teen pregnancies and births and by raising awareness about the importance of this critical issue, promoting parent-child communication, and investing in programs that have been proven to reduce teen pregnancy.

The resolution was referred to the Committee on Health Policy.

Reps. Driskell, Dillon, Segal, Lipton, Durhal, Santana, Stallworth, Roberts, Tlaib, Faris, Hovey-Wright, Cavanagh, Schor, Kosowski, Haugh, Smiley, Knezek, Greimel, Talabi and Slavens offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 140.

A resolution to declare May 12-18, 2013, as Women’s Health Week in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, Women’s Health Week was initiated in the dawn of the new millennium by a group of public and private organizations dedicated to raising awareness of women’s health issues; and

Whereas, From that day forward, National Women’s Health Week has occurred in the spring with an annual celebration held the week following Mother’s Day; and

Whereas, Women’s Health Week is a celebration of women taking responsibility for their own health through greater knowledge and understanding; and

Whereas, The percentage of Michigan women that have had a routine health checkup in the past two years was below the national average in 2011; and

Whereas, Women’s Health Week celebrates the efforts of national and community organizations working with partners and volunteers to improve awareness of key women’s health issues; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare May 12-18, 2013, as Women’s Health Week in the state of Michigan.

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

The resolution was adopted.

Reps. Lyons, Brown, Durhal, Geiss, Goike, Heise, Hovey-Wright, Howrylak, Lori, Poleski, Price, Roberts and Slavens offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 141.

A resolution to declare May 15, 2013, as Tuberous Sclerosis Awareness Day in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, Increasing awareness of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), supporting programs for increased research and improved treatment of tuberous sclerosis, and improving training and support for individuals with tuberous sclerosis and those who care for individuals with tuberous sclerosis is important; and

Whereas, The Tuberous Sclerosis Alliance is the only national voluntary health organization dedicated to finding a cure for TSC and improving the lives of those affected through research, support, and education; and

Whereas, TSC affects an estimated 1 in every 6,000 live births in America; and

Whereas, TSC affects some people severely, while others are so mildly affected that it often goes undiagnosed; and

Whereas, People with TSC often develop epilepsy, autism, and learning and behavioral problems. In fact, TSC is the leading known genetic cause of epilepsy and autism. Despite this, many professionals in the medical and educational fields are still unaware of the best methods to diagnose and treat TSC; and

Whereas, May 15, 2013 is Tuberous Sclerosis Complex Global Awareness Day; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare May 15, 2013, as Tuberous Sclerosis Awareness Day in the state of Michigan. We recognize and commend the families and individuals affected by TSC for their sacrifice and dedication in dealing with this devastating condition and providing for the special needs of both children and adults with TSC and for absorbing significant financial costs for treatment and support services; and be it further

Resolved, That we stress the need to begin early intervention services soon after a child has been diagnosed with TSC, noting that early intervention strategies are the primary therapeutic options for young people with TSC, and early intervention significantly improves outcomes for people with TSC and can reduce the level of funding and services needed later in life.

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

The resolution was adopted.

House Resolution No. 135.

A resolution to urge the other Great Lakes states and Canada to adopt ballast water standards equivalent to U.S. federal requirements.

(For text of resolution, see House Journal No. 44, p. 657.)

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

Substitute for House Resolution No. 135.

A resolution to urge the other Great Lakes states and Canada to adopt ballast water standards equivalent to the 2013 federal Vessel General Permit requirements.

Whereas, Aquatic invasive species (AIS) are one of the most serious threats to the health of the Great Lakes and the people and businesses that depend on them. Once introduced and established, these harmful species are nearly impossible to eradicate and naturally spread across political boundaries with potentially major environmental and economic impacts. Past invasions have been estimated to cost the Great Lakes region more than $100 million annually; and

Whereas, Ballast water carried in ships participating in overseas trade is the primary pathway for bringing AIS into the Great Lakes. To protect the Great Lakes, the introduction of AIS through ballast water discharges from these oceangoing ships must be controlled; and

Whereas, Preventing AIS must not be at the cost of crippling vital maritime commerce. Great Lakes shipping is an integral economic link among the Great Lakes states and provinces and the rest of the world. Oceangoing ships operating on the Great Lakes and the cargo they carry account alone for nearly 18,000 jobs and more than $2.3 billion in annual business revenue in the United States and Canada; and

Whereas, The U.S. federal government has finally established strong and reasonable ballast water standards to prevent the introduction of AIS. The U.S. Coast Guard and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency have adopted an internationally-accepted standard and a compliance timeline that will lead to the installation of technology on oceangoing ships to treat ballast water and kill AIS; and

Whereas, It is in the best interest of the Great Lakes states and Canada to align with U.S. federal requirements and create a consistent and seamless standard for the Great Lakes region. Adopting similar standards will ensure the shipping industry will not have to operate in a quagmire of different regulations. At the same time, the Great Lakes states and Canada will achieve a new milestone in its efforts to prevent the introduction of aquatic invasive species and protect the natural treasure in our shared trust; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we urge the other Great Lakes states and Canada to adopt ballast water standards equivalent to the 2013 federal Vessel General Permit requirements; and be it further

Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the governors of Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, the premiers of Ontario and Quebec, the Canadian Minister of Transport, Infrastructure and Communities, the Council of Great Lakes Governors, and the members of the Great Lakes Legislative Caucus.

Announcements by the Clerk

The Clerk received the following dissent on House Bill No. 4242, from Rep. Irwin:

I continue to object to the use of procedural tricks to subvert the Constitutional rights of citizens to know accurately the actions of the House of Representatives. Motions for immediate effect are routinely gaveled through without even a pretense of vote counting. This motion requires support from 2/3rds of the members and there is no genuine effort to ascertain the level of support for immediate effect. I object to this practice and I object to the erroneous assertions printed in the House Journal that suggest an authentic counting of votes occurred on the House floor.

______

Rep. Lyons moved that the House adjourn.

The motion prevailed, the time being 3:10 p.m.

The Speaker Pro Tempore declared the House adjourned until Wednesday, May 15, at 1:30 p.m.
