Rep. Thomas A. Albert, from the 86th
District, offered the following invocation:
“At the Wedding at Cana, when the wine
had run short, Mary, the Mother of God, told Jesus, ‘They have no wine.’ (John
2:3). Jesus replied saying, ‘Woman, how does your concern affect me? My hour
has not yet come.’ (John 2:4). In response to this rebuke Mary responded in
both obedience and faith by turning to the servers and saying simply, ‘Do
whatever he tells you.’ (John 2:5). Sister Lucia of Fatima has described Mary’s
words at Cana as ‘Mary’s Commandment.’ This command is for us to not desire our
own will, but the will of God. May all of us who are entrusted to work on
behalf of the people of Michigan follow our Mother’s example in working to
fulfill the will of our Father. Please join with me in asking our Mother, the
Mother of God, to pray for us.
Hail Mary full of Grace, the Lord is
with thee.
Blessed are thou amongst women and
blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus.
Holy Mary Mother of God,
pray for us sinners now and at the hour
of our death. Amen.”

Rep.
Rabhi moved that Reps. Gay-Dagnogo and Pagan be excused from today’s session.

Motions and Resolutions
Reps. Howell, Calley, Ellison, Garza and Sabo offered the following
resolution:
House Resolution No. 224.
A resolution to declare January
2020 as School Board Recognition Month in the state of Michigan.
Whereas,
Michigan is home to more than 600 boards of education that work hard to enrich
the lives of Michigan’s students through education and who directly influence
instruction in Michigan’s public schools; and
Whereas, Article VII, Section 2,
of the Michigan Constitution of 1963 states that providing for the education of
Michigan’s children is a fundamental duty of state government; and
Whereas, Our state’s public
education system is designed to meet the educational needs of all children and
to empower them to become competent, productive contributors to society in this
everchanging world; and
Whereas, Members of local school
boards are dedicated to children, learning, and community, and devote many
hours of service to elementary and secondary public education as they
continually strive for improvement, excellence, and progress in education; and
Whereas, Local school boards
recognize that all children can be successful learners, especially when
education is tailored to individual needs of the child; and
Whereas, Local school board
members are exceptional people who have committed themselves to this duty by
governing school districts and advancing student achievement in the schools and
communities in which they serve; and
Whereas, During this month, we
join the Michigan Association of School Boards, Michigan Department of
Education, local school districts, and community organizations to recognize and
raise awareness of the countless efforts and contributions of school boards and
school board members throughout Michigan; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of
Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare January 2020
as School Board Recognition Month in the state of Michigan. We urge all
citizens to observe this momentous occasion.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
Rep. Howell moved to substitute (H-1) the resolution as follows:
Substitute for House Resolution
No. 224.
A resolution to declare January
28-31, 2020, as School Board Recognition Week in the state of Michigan.
Whereas,
Michigan is home to more than 600 boards of education that work hard to enrich
the lives of Michigan’s students through education and who directly influence
instruction in Michigan’s public schools; and
Whereas, Article VII, Section 2,
of the Michigan Constitution of 1963 states that providing for the education of
Michigan’s children is a fundamental duty of state government; and
Whereas, Our state’s public
education system is designed to meet the educational needs of all children and
to empower them to become competent, productive contributors to society in this
everchanging world; and
Whereas, Members of local school
boards are dedicated to children, learning, and community, and devote many
hours of service to elementary and secondary public education as they
continually strive for improvement, excellence, and progress in education; and
Whereas, Local school boards
recognize that all children can be successful learners, especially when
education is tailored to individual needs of the child; and
Whereas, Local school board

Whereas, During this month, we
join the Michigan Association of School Boards, Michigan Department of

Resolved by
the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare
January 28‑31, 2020, as School Board
Recognition Week in the state of Michigan. We urge all citizens to observe this
momentous occasion.
The
question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.
Reps. Calley and Frederick offered the following concurrent resolution:
House Concurrent Resolution No.
14.
A concurrent resolution to
recognize that pornography is a public health crisis that leads to a broad
spectrum of societal harms.
Whereas, Pornography has a
detrimental impact on society. It promotes and encourages sexually toxic
expectations and behaviors affecting children, adolescents, and adults; and
Whereas, Pornography often
depicts unrealistic, inaccurate, and violent forms of sexual behavior. Pornography objectifies actors, and its use often
reinforces sexual scripts devoid of mutual relationships. In addition, pornography
normalizes sexual violence and abuse of women, men, and children and often
depicts rape and abuse as if they are harmless; and
Whereas, Many children are
exposed to pornography. Studies from the mid 2000s show that rates of exposure
to pornography as adolescents can reach up to 93% for boys and up to 63% for
girls. One study that surveyed over 1,000 people between the ages of 15 and 29
found that 69% of men and 23% of women viewed pornography before the age of 13;
and
Whereas, Early exposure to
pornography harms children and can promote unhealthy sexual behaviors. Research
indicates that early exposure of pornography can lead to low self-esteem and
body image disorders and can increase dangerous sexual activity among children
and adolescents; and
Whereas, Pornography also has
negative implications for adults. Emerging evidence shows some pornography
users suffer detrimental effects, including impacts on brain functioning,
development of emotional and medical illnesses, difficulty forming and
maintaining intimate relationships, and problematic or harmful sexual
behaviors; and
Whereas, Consumption of
pornography leads to a vicious cycle of supply and demand. Recent research
indicates that pornography may be biologically addictive, which leads to an
escalating consumption of pornographic materials depicting extreme degradation,
risky behavior, and violence. As a result, studies show pornography increases
the demand for sex trafficking, prostitution, child sexual abuse images, and
child pornography; and
Whereas, Pornography can erode
the family unit. Research shows that pornography use is linked to greater
sexual and relationship dissatisfaction and a lessened desire for forming
intimate and lasting real-life bonds. This can have a destabilizing effect on
relationships and families; and
Whereas, The World Health
Organization has recognized compulsive sexual behavior disorder as a
diagnosable mental health condition. Clinical evidence suggests that
approximately 80 percent of diagnosed cases involve problematic pornography
use; and
Whereas, Overcoming pornography’s
harm is frequently beyond the capability of the afflicted individual to address
without professional and community support; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of
Representatives (the Senate concurring), That we recognize that pornography is
a public health crisis that leads to a broad spectrum of societal harms and
requires education, prevention, research, and policy change at the community
and societal level; and be it further
Resolved, That copies of this
resolution be transmitted to the President of the United States Senate, the
Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, and the members of the
Michigan congressional delegation.
The concurrent resolution was referred to the Committee on Health
Policy.
Reps. Frederick and Calley offered the following concurrent resolution:
House Concurrent Resolution No.
15.
A concurrent resolution to
encourage technology companies and application developers to establish a
third-party organization to assign application software ratings and
descriptions and impose sanctions for noncompliance.
Whereas, Millions of children
have to access cellular phones and tablets on a daily basis; and
Whereas, Popular applications
(apps) developed for use on these electronic devices often include content that
is not suitable for the age groups to which they are marketed; and
Whereas, Age ratings and
descriptions for apps are the responsibility of the app developer with no
oversight to ensure that ratings and descriptions are accurate. No third-party
organization has been created to review app ratings or impose sanctions for
noncompliance related to app content; and
Whereas, Children may be exposed
to inappropriate content or privacy issues through the use of some apps. Apps
aimed at children may collect and share personal information, let children
spend real money, and link to social media. These apps often have inadequate or
difficult-to-find parental controls; and
Whereas, A third-party
organization comprised of experts in child development, child protection, and
internet safety should be vested with authority to assign app ratings and
descriptions and impose sanctions for noncompliance. Such a board could operate
in a manner similar to the Entertainment Software Ratings Board and Motion
Picture Association of America, which rate video games and films, respectively;
now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of
Representatives (the Senate concurring), That we encourage technology companies
and application developers to establish a third-party organization to assign
application software ratings and descriptions and impose sanctions for
noncompliance.
The concurrent resolution was referred to the Committee on
Communications and Technology.
