Motions and Resolutions

Reps. Lucido, Clemente, Cochran, Faris, Greig, Howrylak, Liberati, Marino, Maturen, Moss, Phelps, Sabo, Sneller, Wittenberg and Yanez offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 404.

A resolution to declare October 2018 as Italian-American Heritage Month in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, In October of 1492, a three ship expedition lead by Christopher Columbus reached the shores of what he named San Salvador (now in the Bahamas). This voyage brought forth a new era of exploration and discovery in the New World. The American continents are named after an Italian, the explorer and geographer Amerigo Vespucci. As Columbus may have set forth his expedition under a Spanish flag, it is his Italian ancestry which is celebrated to this day; and

Whereas, Italian-Americans have defended the liberty and integrity of the United States since the Revolutionary War. Two of the original signers of the Declaration of Independence, William Paca and Caesar Rodney, as well as Filippo Mazzei, were believed to have been of Italian decent; and

Whereas, An estimated 5.5 million Italians immigrated to the United States between 1820 and 2004. Today, there are over 18 million Americans of Italian descent in the United States, making them the fourth largest ethnic group; and

Whereas, Italian-Americans have and continue to make important contributions to the state of Michigan and our local communities. The bonds between the United States of America, the state of Michigan, and the Italian Republic have never been stronger; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare October 2018 as Italian-American Heritage Month in the state of Michigan; and be it further

Resolved, That the House of Representatives reaffirms its commitment to celebrating the history and heritage of Columbus Day; and be it further

Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the Governor of the state of Michigan.

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

The resolution was adopted.

Reps. Green, Yanez, Clemente, Cochran, Faris, Greig, Liberati, Maturen, Pagan, Phelps, Sabo, Sneller, Sowerby and Wittenberg offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 405.

A resolution to declare October 2018 as Eczema Awareness Month in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, Eczema, also known as atopic dermatitis, is a general term for a set of inflammatory skin conditions affecting over 10% of U.S. citizens. These inflammations are caused by a mix of genetic and external factors like allergies and irritation. Although most experience it as a mild skin condition, about half experience more serious symptoms impacting their everyday lives to an even greater degree; and

Whereas, Eczema is prevalent at every age. However, 13% of all U.S. children are diagnosed with atopic dermatitis. Children ages 0-17, as a result of living with eczema, may also experience anxiety about flare-ups or struggle with self-esteem. Other side effects include co-occurring mental health disorders such as depression and hypertension, and increased rates of allergies, asthma, ADHD, and bacterial and viral infections. With the addition of the co-occurring conditions, eczema can come at an immense cost to those affected and their families; and

Whereas, It is important to bring to light the high costs of living with eczema. Individuals living with eczema can pay upwards of $500 out of pocket for medical treatment and it is an even higher cost for individuals without health care coverage; and

Whereas, While there is no cure for eczema, we extend our appreciation for organizations like the National Eczema Association, American Academy of Dermatology, International Eczema Council, and National Eczema Society for their dedication to the cause and for providing an immeasurable amount of resources, research, and advocacy for individuals living with eczema; and

Whereas, Raising awareness of eczema as a public health issue would educate the public on the ways eczema affects the lives of those with the disease and their families, making it a priority to ensure access to affordable, effective eczema treatments; now, therefore, be it

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

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

Rep. Green moved to substitute (H-1) the resolution as follows:

Substitute for House Resolution No. 405.

A resolution to declare October 2018 as Eczema Awareness Month in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, Eczema, is a general term for a set of inflammatory skin conditions affecting over 10% of U.S. citizens, and the most common form of eczema is atopic dermatitis. These inflammations are caused by a mix of genetic and external factors like allergies and irritation. Although most experience it as a mild skin condition, about half experience more serious symptoms impacting their everyday lives to an even greater degree; and

Whereas, Raising awareness of eczema as a public health issue would educate the public on the ways eczema affects the lives of those with the disease and their families, and how they can have access to affordable, effective eczema treatments; now, therefore, be it

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

The motion prevailed and the substitute (H-1) was adopted, a majority of the members serving voting therefor.

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

The resolution was adopted.

Reps. Sneller, Clemente, Faris, Rabhi, Greig, Guerra, Geiss, Camilleri, Wittenberg, Phelps, Byrd, Gay-Dagnogo, Lasinski, Peterson, Chang, Brinks, Graves, Ellison, Greimel, Liberati, Zemke, Durhal, Hertel, Sabo, Hoadley, Pagan, Garrett, Love, Neeley, Green, Yanez, Sowerby, Cambensy, Cochran, Elder, Jones, Frederick, Calley, Howrylak, Kahle, Maturen and Moss offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 406.

A resolution to declare October 2018 as Disability Employment Awareness Month in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, In Michigan, only about 19% of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities are employed; and

Whereas, People with developmental disabilities in Michigan share with the rest of the state’s nearly 10 million residents the right to work in competitive, integrated work environments with needed supports, while making minimum wage; and

Whereas, It has been more than 70 years since Congress designated a week in October, which has culminated into National Disability Employment Awareness Month with the 2018 theme being “America’s Workforce: Empowering All”; and

Whereas, Every person should be seen for their ability and not disability with valuable strengths and the potential to make important contributions to their local communities; and

Whereas, By promoting opportunities for all citizens with disabilities in Michigan, gaining individual integrated employment, and engaging businesses to value the contributions that employees with disabilities bring to their organization, we will enhance the employment landscape and enable Michigan to compete with other states to bring in high-demand businesses and jobs; and

Whereas, Disability Employment Awareness Month is an appropriate time to recognize Michigan’s employment accomplishments concerning persons with disabilities in integrated environments and to make sure all of Michigan’s citizens with intellectual and developmental disabilities are included; and

Whereas, Celebrating the abilities and contributions of people with developmental disabilities can only serve to enrich the communities of Michigan and enhance our diversity; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare October 2018 as Disability Employment Awareness Month in the state of Michigan.

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

The resolution was adopted.

Reps. Pagan, Lasinski, Hoadley, Chang, Garrett, Cambensy, Clemente, Cochran, Faris, Geiss, Greig, Howrylak, Kahle, Liberati, Maturen, Moss, Phelps, Sabo, Sneller, Sowerby, Wittenberg, Yanez and Yaroch offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 407.

A resolution to declare October 2018 as Domestic Violence Awareness Month in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, According to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence, Domestic Violence Awareness Month (DVAM) was launched nationwide in October 1987 as a way to connect and unite individuals and organizations working on domestic violence issues and raise awareness for those issues; and

Whereas, The coalition defines domestic violence as the willful intimidation, physical assault, battery, sexual assault, and/or other abusive behavior as part of a systematic pattern of power and control perpetrated by one intimate partner against another. It includes physical violence, sexual violence, psychological violence, and emotional abuse; and

Whereas, Domestic violence is an epidemic affecting individuals in every community regardless of age, economic status, sexual orientation, gender, race, religion, or nationality; and

Whereas, The devastating physical, emotional, and psychological consequences of domestic violence can cross generations and last a lifetime; and

Whereas, Nearly 3 in 10 women (29%) and 1 in 10 men (10%) in the U.S. have experienced physical violence, sexual violence and/or stalking by a partner resulting in injury, fear, concern for safety, and/or needing services; and

Whereas, On a typical day, there are more than 20,000 phone calls placed to domestic violence hotlines nationwide and the presence of a gun in a domestic violence situation increases the risk of homicide by 500 %; and

Whereas, Between 21-60 % percent of victims of intimate partner violence lose their jobs due to reasons stemming from the abuse. Victims of intimate partner violence lose a total of 8 million days of paid work each year; and

Whereas, Studies suggest that there is a relationship between intimate partner violence and depression and suicidal behavior; and

Whereas, According to the National Network to End Domestic Violence, many dynamics of power and control are rooted in gender roles and stereotypes. One way to combat these ingrained inequalities is through conscious action and education; and

Whereas, Throughout the last three decades, much progress has been made to support domestic violence victims and survivors and to hold abusers accountable. Continued awareness, education, and action are crucial to prevention; and

Whereas, We must work together to educate our entire population about what can be done to prevent domestic violence, support the individual and unique needs of survivors, and ensure that survivors are not re-victimized; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare October 2018 as Domestic Violence Awareness Month in the state of Michigan. We strongly support the efforts of national, state, and local partners, and every citizen to actively engage in public and private efforts to prevent domestic violence. We will take appropriate action and support one another to create a safer environment in order to help end domestic violence.

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

The resolution was adopted.

Communications from State Officers

The following communication from the Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs was received and read:

September 20, 2018

Re: Notice of Scheduling Gabapentin as a Schedule 5 Controlled Substance

In December of 2017, the Board of Pharmacy voted to promulgate a rule to control Gabapentin by adding it to the list of controlled substances in schedule 5. MCL 333.7231 of the Public Health Code requires the Board of Pharmacy to provide you with a notice of any change in scheduling of controlled substances. The Board of Pharmacy expects that the attached rule will be effective in the Fall of 2018. The proposed rule is in the last stage of promulgation with the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules where it must remain for 15 session days.

If you have any questions feel free to contact Andria Ditschman, Senior Analyst with the Boards and Committee Section of the Bureau of Professional Licensing at either 517 241-9255 or ditschmana@michigan.gov .

Sincerely,

Nichole Cover, Chairperson

Michigan Board of Pharmacy
