Rep. Bruce R. Rendon, from the 103rd District, offered the following invocation:

“Lord, God of all Creation, Help us today to see our opening prayer as conversation, really believing that You hear us and care about what we say. Remind us that You are a perfect Father who listens carefully to His children and wants the very best for us.

We thank You for this day that You have given us, for its blessings, its opportunities, and its challenges.

We thank You for the privilege and honor of serving Your people here in Michigan. Today, as always, we seek Your guidance in our service and ask that You keep us well so that we can best serve the needs of all.

We ask that You give us open minds, a clear understanding, and a steady purpose to make the most of the resources You have so generously provided.

We ask Your guidance in the decisions that we make here together, that we would be considerate of the needs of all Your people, no matter how different those needs may be. For it is good to recognize the difference in each one of us, a difference that You created. Our individual talents, dreams, backgrounds, and occupations are all important in contributing to the decisions we will make in this legislature. Yet, it is good to know that when You created each one of us, You broke the mold, making each of us distinct and unique down to our fingerprints and our voices. We thank You that we can take these differences and move us as one body towards a common goal: doing what’s fair and beneficial for the people of Michigan.

As we seek to do Your will, Lord, we ask that You enlighten us and anoint us with Your Holy Spirit, that we would be ever mindful of the privilege we have to be public servants. As we make a new beginning this week, grant that each one of us may feel our responsibility to this legislature, to our communities, and to our country, by placing service above self.

In Your name, O Lord, we pray Amen.”

Rep. Stamas moved that Reps. Brunner and Haugh be excused from today’s session.

Motions and Resolutions

Reps. Graves, Phelps, Faris, Smiley, Stanley, Brown, Daley, Denby, Heise and Howrylak offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 384.

A resolution to urge the government of the Islamic Republic of Iran to release American citizen and Michigan resident, Amir Hekmati, after more than 1,000 days of unjust and unlawful imprisonment.

Whereas, Amir Hekmati is being unjustly and illegally imprisoned by the Iranian government on false charges of espionage. Seized during a visit to his grandmother and other relatives in Iran, this graduate of Flint Central High School and U.S. Marine veteran has suffered through nearly three years of mistreatment and injustice; and

Whereas, Iran’s own courts have found that the charges against Amir Hekmati are unsubstantiated. Originally sentenced to death after months in solitary confinement, his sentence was overturned by an Iranian higher court for lack of evidence. He has since been sentenced to 10 years imprisonment in a secret, closed-door trial that neither he nor his attorney were made aware of or allowed to attend; and

Whereas, Amir Hekmati has been used long enough as a political pawn. Justice and simple human decency should be allowed to prevail, and Amir Hekmati released so that he may be reunited with his family in Michigan who anxiously await his safe return; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we urge the government of the Islamic Republic of Iran to release American citizen and Michigan resident, Amir Hekmati, after more than 1,000 days of unjust and unlawful imprisonment; and be it further

Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the U.S. Secretary of State and the members of the Michigan congressional delegation.

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

The resolution was adopted.

Reps. Graves, Yanez, Barnett, Daley, Denby, Heise, Howrylak, Lipton and Price offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 385.

A resolution to urge the United States Congress to investigate the United States Department of Veterans Affairs’ treatment of military veterans seeking health care at facilities throughout the country.

Whereas, The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) has been aware of a backlog of patients seeking to see doctors or have specific tests completed at several VA hospitals around the nation for several years. As many as 7,000 veterans have been on the backlog list, often waiting over a year for necessary procedures or tests. The VA admits that 23 veterans have died while waiting to see a doctor. However, many believe the number of veterans to have died while waiting to be seen is much higher; and

Whereas, It has now come to light that VA facilities have, not only a backlog of patients, but also secret waiting lists, keeping veterans’ names out of the computer system until they could be seen by a doctor within the required 14-day wait time. The secret waiting lists made it appear the VA facilities were meeting their performance goal to see patients in a timely manner; and

Whereas, The men and women who serve our country deserve better than lackluster medical care or no care at all. Many of them have been injured in the line of duty and come home to face medical challenges that require timely diagnosis and care. All veterans are entitled to the best care we can give them. To be deceived by a system more interested in performance goals than health care is intolerable; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we urge the United States Congress to investigate the United States Department of Veterans Affairs’ treatment of military veterans seeking health care at facilities throughout the country; 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 Military and Veterans Affairs.

Reps. Irwin and Schor, having reserved the right to explain their protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:

“Mr. Speaker and members of the House:

I oppose HB 5558 because citizens in Michigan deserve the right to hold their insurers accountable when those insurers lie to or deceive their customers about the nature of their benefits. If this change is enacted, Michigan residents will lose their last opportunity to bring a private action against their insurer for unfair of deceptive business practices. Instead of putting the final nails in the coffin built for the Michigan Consumer Protection Act, we should be restoring our citizen’s ability to seek justice when they are cheated by their insurer.”
