Pastor Jason Bull, Executive Pastor of Freshwater Community Church in Paw Paw, offered the following invocation:

“Dear God,

We are gathered in a special place. It is a house representing all the people of our state. It is a house relied on by those people to uphold and better their way of life. We pause momentarily before the work at hand in this house today to acknowledge Your presence, to give You thanks and to ask humbly for Your continued guidance and blessing that we need so desperately.

We have much to be thankful for! Thank You for this country - that is like no other in history - and the incredible freedoms that You have helped establish here. Thank You for centuries of blessing that You have generously showered upon so many before us and continue to shower upon us today. We’re a little partial, God, but thank You for the unique and exceedingly beautiful state of Michigan that we call home.

Today, though, I thank You for each one of these house members: for the risks they took and the sacrifices they made to run for office; for the hardships they endure to hold that office; and for their continued commitment to preserve and protect our precious state. I thank You for their staffs, that serve tirelessly with great commitment and loyalty. And I thank You, too, for their families that support them with enduring patience and understanding.

We remember that Your Son came to serve humanity and we have been given the great privilege to do the same. The people in this house, from different walks of life and all corners of our state, have taken on that noble role of serving people. You know better than anyone, God, that this is a difficult, taxing and often thankless endeavor.

So, I pray for special blessing over all those in this house who have committed their time and energy to serve the people of Michigan. Would You give them broader perspective, deeper understanding, greater wisdom and unending patience as they represent their respective districts? Would You allow them to see more clearly the decency and spirit of service in their fellow colleagues? Would You instill in them new ideas and creative solutions to old problems? And would You inspire this house to be a source of positive change that benefits the people and makes our great state the envy of the other forty-nine? Give them perseverance. Protect them and their families. Allow them to see You at work in their lives and in our government. In Your great name we pray, Amen.”

Motions and Resolutions

Reps. Vaupel, Allor, Cochran, Crawford, Ellison, Geiss, Greig, Kelly, Liberati, Maturen, Rendon, Sneller, Whiteford and Wittenberg offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 305.

A resolution to declare May 2018 as Mental Health Awareness Month in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, The month of May is designated as Mental Health Awareness Month by Mental Health America and its affiliates; and

Whereas, 1 in 5 adults in the United States have a mental health condition and half of which have a co-occurring substance use disorder; and

Whereas, Tens of thousands of Michigan residents live with mental and behavioral health illnesses every year and many of them struggle to get the care they need; and

Whereas, In any given year, around 336,000 adults in Michigan are documented as having a serious mental illness and 84,000 adolescents experience a major depressive episode with only 44% of all individuals receiving some form of treatment; and

Whereas, Recognizing the need for reform, the House of Representatives convened the bi-partisan House C.A.R.E.S. (Community Access Resources and Safety) in 2017 to discuss our state’s mental health system; and

Whereas, The House C.A.R.E.S. Task Force Report was published in January 2018 and contained several recommendations to better connect the state’s residents with access to care, treatment, and prevention to improve their quality of life; and

Whereas, Of these many recommendations, the report looked at addressing treatment and prevention in our jails and judicial system, training for individuals to recognize a mental health crises, expanding opportunities for individuals to be connected with care, filling the shortage of mental health providers, delivering care early to adolescents, and ensuring our veterans are connected with services; and

Whereas, The Michigan House of Representatives will continue to reduce the stigmatization of mental illness and work toward providing quality services to those that are living with mental health disorders and addictions; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare May 2018 as Mental Health Awareness Month in the state of Michigan.

The resolution was referred to the Committee on Health Policy.

Reps. Kesto, Allor, Cochran, Crawford, Ellison, Geiss, Greig, Kelly, Liberati, Maturen, Rendon, Sneller, Whiteford and Wittenberg offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 306.

A resolution to declare April 18, 2018, as Parkinson’s Disease Awareness Day in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, Parkinson’s disease is a chronic neurological disorder which results from the loss of nerve cells in a specific region of the brain, affecting over 35,000 people in the state of Michigan; and

Whereas, Diverse symptoms of Parkinson’s disease include resting tremor, slowness of movement, rigidity, loss of balance, small handwriting, decreased volume and clarity of voice as well as a host of secondary problems such as impassive facial expression, swallowing issues, or memory issues which impact quality of life; and

Whereas, Psychological, emotional, and physical tolls burden people with Parkinson’s disease as well as their families and friends; and

Whereas, Parkinson’s disease is typically diagnosed between the ages of 50 and 60. However, between 5% and 10% are diagnosed before the age of 40 which adds additional challenges of working full time, raising young children while still managing the effects of the disease; and

Whereas, An active lifestyle with regular daily exercise and careful attention to Parkinson medications are key elements to living life fully with Parkinson’s disease and overcoming the disabilities associated with it; and

Whereas, The Michigan Parkinson Foundation has been the primary organization in the state of Michigan for over 35 years and provides services that make a significant difference in the quality of life for those affected by Parkinson’s disease through education, support groups, medication assistance, respite care assistance, information and referrals, legal assistance, as well as programs for health care professionals to help improve patient care; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare April 18, 2018, as Parkinson’s Disease Awareness Day in the state of Michigan; and be it further

Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be sent to the Michigan Parkinson Foundation as evidence of our highest esteem.

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

The resolution was adopted.

Reps. VanderWall, Inman, Howrylak, Kosowski, LaGrand, Cambensy, Greimel, Lasinski, McCready, Johnson, Miller, Cole, Tedder, Hoitenga, Canfield, Victory, Allor, Jones, Zemke, Cochran, Kelly, Liberati, Maturen, Rendon and Sneller offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 307.

A resolution to oppose the Michigan State Waterways Commission resolution recommending legislation be introduced to require the registration with a fee of all rigid-hulled kayaks, canoes, and paddleboards eight feet or longer.

Whereas, Paddle sports are one of the fastest-growing outdoor activities in the nation. Many Michigan residents enjoy a leisurely paddle on the waters of this state and in doing so, contribute more than $140 million to Michigan’s economy; and

Whereas, The Michigan State Waterways Commission recently passed Resolution 02-2018-01 recommending that registration fees be implemented for all rigid-hulled kayaks and canoes as well as paddleboards eight feet or longer. Under current law, these vessels are exempt from fees and registration in Michigan; and

Whereas, Most paddlers will receive minimal benefit from the registration fees, especially the many boaters who exclusively paddle inland waterways and rivers. Although some rustic and unimproved access sites exist along Michigan’s waterways and rivers, most funding for access sites go to state boat launches designed for powerboats and trailers. These sites are not necessarily safe or easy for paddlers to use. Paddlers who do choose to launch from state sites must purchase a recreation passport which supports the maintenance and operation of these sites. Registration fees also fund sheriff patrols on Michigan’s inland lakes. Although safer inland lakes are beneficial to paddlers, increased safety patrols will provide little benefit for paddlers traversing rivers and scenic waterways; and

Whereas, As more Michigan residents discover the excitement and adventure of paddling on Michigan waterways, a registration fee on these vessels would only curtail the growth of a sport that provides great benefits to our state. A family sport, paddling allows residents who are unable to participate in powerboating to access our boundless water resources. A registration fee would only place a burden on our residents while adversely impacting the economic benefits that paddle sports bring to Michigan; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we oppose the Michigan State Waterways Commission resolution recommending legislation be introduced to require the registration with a fee of all rigid-hulled kayaks, canoes, and paddleboards eight feet or longer; and be it further

Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the members of the Michigan State Waterways Commission.

The resolution was referred to the Committee on Tourism and Outdoor Recreation.
