Rev. Fr. Hrant Kevorkian, Pastor of St. Sarkis Armenian Apostolic Church in Dearborn,
offered the following invocation:
“In the name of the Father, the Son and the
Holy Spirit. Amen.
Almighty God, we ask You to guide our
reflection, our action and all our endeavors. We also ask for Your guidance,
especially in the deliberations and all decisions of this noble body, because
strong, wise and visionary leadership is essential for the wellbeing of our
state of Michigan and our nation. Give us Your wisdom, O Lord, to speak, do and
think all which is good in Your sight, especially in all the decision we are
about to make today for the benefit of our state and our nation.
We, Your humble servants, glorify and praise
You for the great gift You have granted us in this great nation of freedom and
faith. Founded by men and women of immense courage and deep faith, You have
made the United States of America flourish and grow over the last 300 years,
preserving it through Your grace and mercy. You have made it a safe haven of
liberty for millions of men and women seeking refuge from tyrannical rulers,
war-ravaged nations, and morally bankrupt and corrupt governments.
As we commemorate the 104th anniversary of the
Armenian Genocide, we remember today the hospitality of this great nation,
which opened its doors to tens of thousands of Armenians fleeing the ravage of
persecution, torture and genocide. They were welcomed into this society and
given the gift of freedom, security and citizenship. Armenians became an
integral part of this society and thrived here in the United States, giving
back with thanksgiving some of what they had received. Many served as defenders
of this nation in the armed forces and paid the ultimate price of freedom,
falling in the battlefields around the world in order to defend the liberty of
the freedom-loving people of our nation. Many Armenians contributed to the
economic, scientific, technological and intellectual growth of this country in
the fields of art and literature, politics and jurisprudence, engineering and
architecture, literature and journalism, business and commerce, science and
technology, photography and cinematography, and religion and education. Allow
us, O Lord, to show our gratitude to America by continuing to be good and
upstanding citizens, always prepared to do our share in the defense and
cultivation of this great nation.
Today, with thanksgiving and praise, we ask
You, O Lord, to bless this precious land of liberty and opportunity, the United
States of America. We especially ask You to bless our President; the members of
the cabinets and the advisors; the members of both houses of congress; the
governors and legislatures of all states, especially our state of Michigan; all
those who serve in the military or are in public service; and all the people of
Michigan and in the United States, through whom the all-Holy Trinity is praised
and glorified. In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit forever and
ever, Amen.
Now let us all pray the Lord’s Prayer in his
or her native language.
Our Father, Who art in heaven,
hallowed be Thy Name,
Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those
who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For Thine is the kingdom,
and the power, and the glory,
for ever and ever. Amen.”

specific dates,” (MCL 333.1101 to 333.25211) by adding section 7521a.
The
motion prevailed.
The
House agreed to the title as amended.
Rep.
Cole moved that the bill be given immediate effect.
The
motion prevailed, 2/3 of the members serving voting therefor.
“Mr.
Speaker and members of the House:
I voted against Senate Bill 2 today because I believe
that the Michigan Legislature is taking away a valuable law enforcement tool
that helps to keeps our communities safe. I believe Senate Bill 2, and previous
bills such as House Bill 4001 and 4002 could have significant unintended
consequences that we need to consider very carefully before moving forward.
More specifically, the bills, as currently written, still allows for broader
forfeiture of property or money worth more than $50,000, which could result in
drug proceeds being bundled in amounts less than $50,000 to avoid forfeiture.
For example, after discussing this with my Police Chief, consider a raid on a
drug house after a drug dealer had sold off his supply. Under the legislation,
police wouldn’t be able to charge, because the drugs are gone. But police might
know it is a drug house because of an informant buy, drug ledgers and even be
able to show that the dealer had the informant’s buy money. In that case, under
these bills, police would still have to let the dealer keep the cash, including
the informant’s buy money, and the individual would still be able to operate.
With the opioid crisis taking a big toll in Macomb County, we need all the
tools possible to combat this major epidemic that has significant impact on our
communities.
In
addition, last term reforms were adopted by the Michigan Legislature including
increasing the burden of proof to forfeit property and ending the requirement
that property owners post a bond to challenge a forfeiture. These changes I
believe would address many of the concerns raised by proponents of Senate Bill 2
and we should take the time to study the impact of these previous legislative
efforts before moving forward with additional changes to the law. Also, many of
the extreme cases that have been discussed in the media with regards to abuse
of asset forfeiture took place with regards to marijuana, which has since been
legalized by the voters, and will result in less investigations and seizures of
assets as a result. In addition, the legislation does not take into account
what would happen if a conviction is overturned on appeal after property is
forfeited and sold, creating an administrative nightmare for law enforcement. A
better approach, in my opinion, include mandatory training for agencies that
might use forfeiture and a ban on local buybacks, where the owners can buy
their property back in lieu of criminal charges. For these reasons, I oppose
Senate Bill 2.”

Motions and Resolutions
Reps.
Love, Ellison, Clemente, Hope, Anthony, Coleman, Cambensy, Manoogian, Kuppa,
Hertel, Yancey, Garrett, Pagan, Byrd, Kennedy, Brenda Carter, Tyrone Carter,
Hoadley, Liberati, Guerra, Bolden, Whitsett, Chirkun, Garza, Gay-Dagnogo,
Haadsma, Hammoud, Jones, Rabhi, Sneller, Sowerby, Stone, Tate, Warren and
Witwer offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 75.
A resolution to urge state and federal
administrators to increase the number of women in skilled trade professions and
to encourage industry leaders and labor unions to address existing and future
shortages in the skilled trades workforce.
Whereas, The state of Michigan, and this
nation as a whole, is experiencing a significant shortage in skilled trade
workers. In Michigan, 80 percent of contracting firms report having a hard time
filling salaried or hourly skilled worker positions. The shortage of skilled
laborers will be exacerbated over the next decade as skilled tradespersons
retire; and
Whereas, Near and long-term infrastructure
projects will require a larger skilled trades workforce. The U.S. Department of
Labor projects job growth in the skilled trades industry at 11 percent through
2026. According to the National Association of Manufacturers, that amounts to
3.5 million new skilled tradespersons, and the Associated General Contractors
predicts a shortage of 250,000 skilled tradespersons per year. In Michigan, the
number of skilled trades professionals cannot meet demand, with an expected
rate of growth of 15,000 new trade jobs per year; and
Whereas, Women are underrepresented in skilled
trades positions despite significant gains. According to the U.S. Department of
Labor, women represent less than 5 percent of all skilled trade workers.
Despite a three- to four-fold increase since the early 1970s, women only
represent 2.4 percent of all electricians, 2.2 percent of all carpenters,
and 3.5 percent of all plumbers, pipefitters, and steamfitters; and
Whereas, Many women are
employed in minimum wage jobs that do not provide benefits, and good-paying
trade positions could benefit these low-income households. While women
constitute 47 percent of the workforce, they account for 60 percent of the
working poor and 63 percent of minimum wage employees. Women are also the
primary or sole earners for 40 percent of households with children under 18
years of age; and
Whereas, Privately-led efforts in Michigan
have started addressing the shortage of women in skilled trades positions.
Project Accelerate, founded by Rita Brown, provides women with a primer in the
construction trades, and Women In Skilled Trades, founded by Tori Menold and Carol Cool, is an accelerated pre-apprenticeship
program that targets single moms. Pioneers like Adrienne Bennett, the CEO of Benkari and Michigan’s first licensed Master Plumber and
this nation’s first African American Master Plumber, continue to demonstrate
that, with encouragement and sustained programs, women and minorities can
represent an increasing share of skilled workers; and
Whereas, National and statewide policies are
necessary to create greater access to training and career opportunities for
women in the skilled trades. Through administrative and policy efforts, the
representative imbalance of tradeswomen can be redressed as state and national
programs levy more resources, devote more training opportunities to women, and
connect women with registered apprenticeship programs; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That
we urge state and federal administrators to increase the number of women in
skilled trade professions by improving access to skilled training and
employment opportunities; and be it further
Resolved, That we encourage industry leaders
and labor unions to address existing and future shortages in the skilled trades
workforce by hiring and training women and minorities; and be it further
Resolved, That copies of this resolution be
transmitted to the Governor, the Director of the Department of Talent and
Economic Development, and the United States Secretary of Labor.
The
resolution was referred to the Committee on Commerce and Tourism.
House Resolution No. 76.
A resolution to declare April 24, 2019, as a
Day of Remembrance in the state of Michigan for the Armenian Genocide of
1915-1923.
Whereas, The state of Michigan recognizes that
the Armenian Genocide occurred from 1915 to 1923. Armenians, as well as Greeks,
Assyrian-Chaldeans, Syriacs, Arameans, Maronites, and other Christians were
subject to torture, starvation, mass murder, and exile from their historic
homeland. Over 1.5 million lost their lives. The Armenian Genocide represented
a deliberate attempt by the Ottoman Empire to eliminate all traces of a
thriving, noble civilization; and
Whereas, The majority of
the Armenian population was displaced from their homes and forced to escape to
neighboring and far away communities and countries. Many refugees fled to the
United States. Today, Michigan is honored to be home to a vibrant
Armenian-American population of more than 17,000 Michiganders. This thriving community is a proud reminder
of survival and perseverance in the face of extreme injustice; and
Whereas, Michigan Armenian churches and
community organizations have organized numerous charity and community drives
across the state, including, but not limited to, providing college scholarships
for deserving students and serving Armenian refugee communities across the
state; and
Whereas, By recognizing and consistently
remembering the Armenian Genocide, the Holocaust and all cases of past and
ongoing genocide, we help protect historic memory, ensure that similar
atrocities do not occur again, and remain vigilant against hatred, persecution
and tyranny; and
Whereas, Armenian communities around the world
commemorate this tragedy on April 24, 2019. On this day, we honor the victims
and survivors of the Genocide and reaffirm our commitment to preventing future
atrocities from being committed against any people; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That
the members of this legislative body declare April 24, 2019, as a Day of
Remembrance in the state of Michigan for the Armenian Genocide of 1915-1923.
The
question being on the adoption of the resolution,
