Pastor John Vermilya, Lead Pastor of The Tabernacle in Buckley, offered the following invocation:
“Almighty God our Father and Lord of all,
We acknowledge You and Your divine hand upon this nation, upon our beloved state of Michigan, and for Your love and care for all her people. We thank You for Your providence, Your blessing, and for Your benign sovereignty.
God we pray and ask You for wisdom for all of our State leaders, especially those entrusted in this house as legislators. Give them strength, humility, and unity, as they collectively strive to do what is best for all our citizens. May they always stand strong in defense of our personal freedom, for justice, and to the inalienable rights which You have endowed us.
God we commit ourselves and our legislative activity to bring about both the triumph of the common good and common sense. Please guide our legislators actions as they seek to obtain the peace and prosperity of their fellow citizens. Give them the courage to do what is right, and the humility to compromise for the greater good.
God we pray and ask You for Your protection and blessing on these men and women, and their families, on both sides of the political aisle. We ask the same for their support staff persons. Where there is disagreement, teach them to do so agreeably, with honor and respect in their discourse. God please unite them around what is most important in service to the state Michigan.
May Your blessing Lord, rest on this session. May Your reign of peace be firmly established in Michigan for generations to come. Acknowledging that we may worship and pray differently, I ask all of this in the name by which I know You: Jesus Christ.
— Amen.”

House Resolution No. 72.
A resolution to declare April 20, 2017, as Multiple Sclerosis State Action Day in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, Multiple sclerosis can impact men and women of all ages, races, and ethnicities; and

Whereas, Every hour of every day, someone in the United States is newly diagnosed with multiple sclerosis; and
Whereas, Approximately 18,000 Michigan residents have been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis; and
Whereas, Multiple sclerosis symptoms occur when an immune system attack affects the myelin in nerve fibers of the central nervous system, damaging or destroying it and replacing it with scar tissue, thereby interfering with or preventing the transmission of nerve signals. The exact cause of multiple sclerosis is still unknown and symptoms of multiple sclerosis are unpredictable and vary from person to person. There is no diagnostic laboratory test available for multiple sclerosis. Multiple sclerosis is not genetic, contagious, or directly inherited, but studies show there are genetic factors that indicate certain individuals are susceptible to the disease. There is no known cure for multiple sclerosis; and
Whereas, The goals of Multiple Sclerosis State Action Day is to invite people to join the movement to end multiple sclerosis, encourage everyone to do something to demonstrate their commitment to moving toward a world free of multiple sclerosis, and to acknowledge those who have dedicated their time and talent to help promote multiple sclerosis research and programs; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare April 20, 2017, as Multiple Sclerosis State Action Day in the state of Michigan.

Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society Michigan Chapter.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.
