“Dear Heavenly Father, we come to You today on behalf of this special body of men and women. We thank You for Who You are and all You have done and continue to do for us. In Your Word You tell us if we lack wisdom to ask for it. Today Lord, we are asking not only for Your blessing upon this session but for wisdom from above for each and every member of this body. Help them to please You in all they think say and do. Guide in every decision that is made. Help them to honor You in all that is said and done.
Thank You dear Father, for Your Wisdom, Sovereignty, and Saving grace. Thank You for meeting with us today. Because You have ordained government, might all that is accomplished here today be pleasing in Your sight. Empower these men and women to carry out, their duties for the betterment for those they serve. We love You Lord and ask this in the precious name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.”

House Resolution No. 208.
A resolution to declare January 30, 2016, as Fred Korematsu Day in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, The legislature recognizes the contributions to civil liberties made by Fred Korematsu; and
Whereas, Fred Korematsu was born to Japanese immigrant parents in Oakland, CA, on January 30, 1919, the third of four sons; and
Whereas, Fred Korematsu was one of the many American citizens of Japanese ancestry living on the west coast during World War II; and
Whereas, Following the attack on Pearl Harbor by Japan on December 7, 1941, where 2,403 Americans were killed and over 1,000 others were wounded, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt issued Executive Order No. 9066 that authorized the Secretary of War to require all Americans of Japanese ancestry to be placed in internment camps; and
Whereas, Fred Korematsu is famously known for his arrest, at the age of 23, on May 30, 1942, and conviction for defying the government’s order to report to an assembly center to be moved to an internment camp; and
Whereas, Following World War II and the release of Japanese Americans from the internment camps, Fred Korematsu moved to Detroit, MI, where he met his wife Kathryn and married before returning to California; and
Whereas, The decision of Korematsu v United States that declared his incarceration justified was overturned on Nov. 10, 1983 by United States District Court of Northern California in San Francisco. This action, considered to be a pivotal moment in civil rights history, cleared Fred Korematsu’s name; and
Whereas, In 1998, President Bill Clinton awarded Fred Korematsu the Presidential Medal of Freedom, our nation’s highest civilian honor; and
Whereas, Fred Korematsu was recognized in 2010 when the State of California passed the Fred Korematsu Day of Civil Liberties and the Constitution bill, making January 30th the first day in United States history designated to honor an Asian-American; and
Whereas, Fred Korematsu is considered by many as a national civil rights hero whose growing legacy continues to inspire people of all backgrounds; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare January 30, 2016, as Fred Korematsu Day in the state of Michigan. We recognize the contributions that Fred Korematsu has made.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.
