Pastor Chad Deerman, Pastor of Faith Alive Church in Chelsea, offered the following invocation:

 

Father thank You for this day that You have given us. Thank You that we can call to You for Your guidance and strength in the times that we are living in these days. Thank You that we have access to our Heavenly Father through the work of Jesus on the cross. You have truly blessed us with every spiritual blessing in Christ, and we have been redeemed by Your grace.

Lord, I believe that You are here. That You care about us and respond to our prayers. I believe You have a plan and a purpose for the great state of Michigan, and we desire that Your Will will be done in this State as it is in heaven. You desire to prosper us and use us for Your Kingdom and Your great name.

Lord, send down upon those who hold office in this State the spirit of wisdom, charity, and justice; that with steadfast purpose they may faithfully serve in their offices to promote the well-being of all people.

Lord, thank You for the men and women who serve our country in leadership roles and for their families. Please provide our leaders reminders each day of why they decided to dedicate their lives to public service, and I pray You encourage them and give them peace when their work takes them away from their families.

As our leaders work together to find solutions to difficult problems, I ask that You guide them to speak respectfully and with humility to one another. Help them to show Christ love to those they interact with today. I pray for a spirit of wisdom to be released in every heart and life that much will be accomplished for Your glory.

I pray that everything that is said and done will bring honor and glory to You.

In the name of Jesus,

Amen.”

Motions and Resolutions

 

 

Reps. Bellino, Cherry, Garza, Hood, Love and Sabo offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 178.

A resolution to declare October 14-18, 2019, as Careers In Energy Week in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, Access to affordable and reliable energy is fundamental to the lives of all Michigan residents and crucial to businesses; and

Whereas, Our energy industry is transforming energy generation to cleaner, greener generation technologies and infrastructure as older facilities are retired over the next 10 years. Energy-efficiency and clean energy sources have become a priority for Michigan residents, businesses, and governments; and

Whereas, Michigan’s energy industry currently boasts 111,000 jobs, with this total demand projected to grow by 6 percent through 2026. This underscores a vital need to increase Science, Technology, Engineering, Math (STEM) and skilled trades training to increase the number of Michigan residents ready to fill the growing gap in the workforce pipeline; and

Whereas, Michigan’s economy continues to grow and become more competitive and Michigan’s energy providers have hired more than 3,200 employees since January 2018; and

Whereas, The Michigan Energy Workforce Development Consortium (MEWDC) is a coalition of more than 50 representatives of industry, education, workforce, labor, government and veterans celebrating 11 years of dedication to identifying and acting on current and future workforce issues that are crucial to building and sustaining Michigan’s energy industry; and

Whereas, The MEWDC has partnered with the U.S. Department of Labor, U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation and the Center for Energy Workforce Development (CEWD) to implement talent development strategies for employment opportunities in Michigan’s energy industry; and

Whereas, The MEWDC collaborated with the Michigan Department of Education to create Michigan’s 17th “career cluster,” which provides a roadmap for high school, career, and technical education, and community college students to pursue jobs in the energy sector; and

Whereas, MEWDC members now have an enhanced, year-round presence in schools and on college and university campuses with a focus on hiring Michigan students, offering expanded opportunities for students to learn about working in Michigan’s energy sector; and

Whereas, During the week of October 14-18, MEWDC will focus on energy career awareness through student tours, energy fairs, and other events to raise awareness about the many benefits of energy careers; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare October 14-18, 2019 as Careers in Energy Week in the state of Michigan.

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

The resolution was adopted.

 

 

Reps. Kennedy, Bolden, Camilleri, Pagan, Koleszar, Hood, Stone, Tyrone Carter, Hammoud, Manoogian, Garza, Chirkun, Ellison, Brixie, Byrd, Wittenberg, Kuppa, Brenda Carter, Cynthia Johnson, Hoadley, Garrett, Lasinski, Sabo, Love, Cherry and Sowerby offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 179.

A resolution to declare October 10, 2019, as Children’s Environmental Health Day in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, Children are especially vulnerable to environmental health issues, more so than adults. Children are very different from adults, because they are not fully developed. Children’s respiratory, reproductive, and immune systems are not fully developed, and absorb more air pollution than adults; and

Whereas, The health of the environment is essential for all. A healthy environment allows the people of this state to lead happy, healthy and successful lives. Children deserve an environment where they can play outside, drink clean water, and be free of worry from the harm of environmental pollution; and

Whereas, The effects of environmental pollution stay with children their whole life; and

Whereas, It is well accepted that children living in poverty and children in disadvantaged communities are at much greater risk of exposure to environmental hazards. In 2018, Michigan ranked 33rd in well-being of children and 25th in overall children’s health according to the Annie E. Casey Foundation; and

Whereas, Every child deserves a chance to learn, grow, and succeed. Our children are the future of this state. Their success is our success and it is important to ensure clean air and water for our children; and

Whereas, The goal of Children’s Environmental Health Day is to raise awareness about clean air and water, safe food and consumer practices, and healthy environments for children’s health and development; and

Whereas, Children’s Environmental Health Day is generally observed on the second Thursday in October. This day celebrates the progress of the children’s environmental health movement and aims to showcase a strong network of child health advocates; and

Whereas, Children’s Environmental Health Day is a national effort supported by individuals, nonprofit organizations, and government agencies to encourage everyone to raise awareness and understanding of children’s environmental health issues, seek improved protections for children, and perform acts of sustain­ability for the environment; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare October 10, 2019, as Children’s Environmental Health Day in the state of Michigan.

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

The resolution was adopted.
