“Lord
– Thank You for bringing us together. We bring different perspectives and
different backgrounds, and You bring the light. Help us see one another. Help
us hear one another. Help us understand one another.
Lord –
Shine Your light upon the darkness of civil unrest. Help us to not point blame
but to point us in the direction of hope and serve as Your light of love
instead of hatred.
Lord –
Our communities, our state, our nation and our world are hurting from this
pandemic. Many in this chamber have felt the pain personally. Lord help us be
strong and show us a path forward.
Lord –
we ask for Your healing. Healing of our bodies. Healing of our minds. Healing
of our spirits.
Lord –
bless this House and all of us who serve here, to do Your work and be Your
light as we lead. Amen.”
Motions and Resolutions
Reps. Stone, Brixie, Brenda Carter, Chirkun, Clemente, Greig, Kevin
Hertel, Hoadley, Hood, Hope, Kennedy, Kuppa, Lasinski, Love, Cynthia Neeley,
Pagan, Pohutsky, Sowerby, Warren and Wittenberg offered the following
resolution:
House Resolution No. 270.
A resolution to declare the June
5, 2020, as National Gun Violence Awareness Day in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, Every day, more than 100
Americans are killed by gun violence and on average there are more than 13,000
gun homicides every year; and
Whereas, Americans are 25 times
more likely to die by gun homicide than people in other high-income countries;
and
Whereas, In an average year,
Michigan has 1187 gun deaths, with a rate of 11.8 deaths per 100,000 people.
Michigan has the 30th highest rate of gun deaths in the US; and
Whereas, Gun homicides
predominantly occur in cities, with more than half of all firearm related gun
deaths in the nation occurring in 127 cities; and
Whereas, Cities across the
nation, including cities in Michigan are working to end the senseless violence
with evidence-based solutions; and
Whereas, Protecting public safety
in the communities they serve is the legislatures’ highest responsibility; and
Whereas, Support for the Second
Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens goes hand-in-hand with keeping guns
away from people with dangerous histories; and
Whereas, Legislators and law
enforcement officers know their communities best, are the most familiar with
local criminal activity and how to address it, and are best positioned to
understand how to keep their citizens safe; and
Whereas, The pandemic facing
America has drastically impacted communities and individuals sheltering in
place which may result in situations where access to firearms results in
increased risk in intimate partner violence gun deaths, suicide by gun and
unintentional shootings; and
Whereas, In January 2013, Hadiya
Pendleton, a teenager who marched in the presidential inaugural parade and was
tragically shot and killed just weeks later, should be now celebrating her 23rd
birthday; and
Whereas, To help honor Hadiya –
and the more than 100 Americans whose lives are cut short every day and the
countless survivors who are injured by shootings every day – a national
coalition of organizations has designated June 5, 2020, the first Friday in
June, as the 6th National Gun Violence Awareness Day; and
Whereas, The idea was inspired by
a group of Hadiya’s friends, who asked their classmates to commemorate her life
by wearing orange; they chose this color because hunters wear orange to
announce themselves to other hunters when out in the woods and orange is a
color that symbolizes the value of human life; and
Whereas, Anyone can join this
campaign by pledging to Wear Orange on June 5th, the first Friday in June in
2020, to help raise awareness about gun violence; and
Whereas, By wearing orange on
June 5, 2020 Americans will raise awareness about gun violence and honor the
lives of gun violence victims and survivors; and
Whereas, We renew our commitment
to reduce gun violence and pledge to do all we can to keep firearms out of the
wrong hands, and encourage responsible gun ownership to help keep our children
safe; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of
Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare June 5,
2020, as National Gun Violence Awareness Day in the state of Michigan. We
encourage all citizens to support their local communities’ efforts to prevent
the tragic effects of gun violence and to honor and value human lives.
The resolution was referred to the Committee on Government Operations.
House Resolution No. 271.
A resolution to declare June 2020
as Alzheimer’s Awareness Month in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, Alzheimer’s disease, a
progressive neurodegenerative brain disorder, tragically robs individuals of
their memories and leads to progressive mental and physical impairments; and
Whereas, There are no known
treatments to prevent, cure, or even delay the onset or slow the progression of
Alzheimer’s disease; and
Whereas, An estimated 5.6 million
people aged 65 and over have Alzheimer’s disease and another 200,000 people
under age 65 have younger-onset Alzheimer’s disease; and
Whereas, In Michigan, there are
an estimated 190,000 people aged 65 and over currently living with Alzheimer’s;
and
Whereas, Alzheimer’s disease is
the sixth leading cause of death in the United States and the fifth leading
cause among the elderly; and
Whereas, According to the
Alzheimer’s Association’s Facts and Figures report, the direct costs of caring
for those with Alzheimer’s to American society is valued at $290 billion and
more than 16 million caregivers provided over 18 billion hours of unpaid care
for those with Alzheimer’s and other dementias last year. In Michigan, 517,000
family members and friends cared for people with Alzheimer’s and other
dementias, providing 589 million hours of unpaid care, with the annual value of
this caregiving totaling $7,444,000,000; and
Whereas, The state of Michigan
recognizes the efforts of the Alzheimer’s Association to raise funds and
promote awareness to fight Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias, thereby
improving the quality of human life for those living with Alzheimer’s disease
and their caregivers; and
Whereas, The month of June 2020
has been declared Alzheimer’s Awareness Month to help spread awareness and
educate the public on this debilitating disease and the need to increase
efforts to combat its human and economic costs; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of
Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare June 2020 as
Alzheimer’s Awareness Month in the state of Michigan. We recognize the
individuals, families, friends, and caregivers dealing with Alzheimer’s disease
and the researchers who are seeking a cause or cure, and urge all residents to
wear purple to help spread awareness of the Alzheimer’s Association’s vision of
imagining a world without Alzheimer’s disease.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.

identified the first two presumptive-positive cases of COVID-19 in Michigan. On
that same day, I issued Executive Order 2020-4. This order declared a state of
emergency across the state of Michigan under section 1 of article 5 of the
Michigan Constitution of 1963, the Emergency Management Act, 1976 PA 390, as
amended (EMA), MCL 30.401 et seq., and the Emergency Powers of the
Governor Act of 1945, 1945 PA 302, as amended (EPGA), MCL 10.31 et seq.
Since then, the virus spread across Michigan, bringing deaths in the
thousands, confirmed cases in the tens of thousands, and deep disruption to
this state’s economy, homes, and educational, civic, social, and religious
institutions. On April 1, 2020, in response to the widespread and severe
health, economic, and social harms posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, I issued
Executive Order 2020-33. This order expanded on Executive Order 2020-4 and
declared both a state of emergency and a state of disaster across the State of
Michigan under section 1 of article 5 of the Michigan Constitution of 1963, the
Emergency Management Act, and the Emergency Powers of the Governor Act of 1945.
And on April 30, 2020, finding that COVID-19 had created emergency and disaster
conditions across the State of Michigan, I issued Executive Order 2020-67 to
continue the emergency declaration under the EPGA, as well as Executive Order
2020-68 to issue new emergency and disaster declarations under the EMA.
Those executive orders have been challenged in Michigan House of
Representatives and Michigan Senate v. Whitmer. On May 21, 2020, the Court
of Claims ruled that Executive Order 2020-67 is a valid exercise of authority
under the Emergency Powers of the Governor Act but that Executive Order 2020-68
is not a valid exercise of authority under the Emergency Management Act. Both
of those rulings are being challenged on appeal.
On May 22, 2020, I issued Executive Order 2020-99, again finding that
the COVID-19 pandemic constitutes a disaster and emergency throughout the State
of Michigan. That order constituted a state of emergency declaration under the
Emergency Powers of the Governor Act of 1945. And, to the extent the governor
may declare a state of emergency and a state of disaster under the Emergency
Management Act when emergency and disaster conditions exist yet the legislature
has declined to grant an extension request, that order also constituted a state
of emergency and state of disaster declaration under that act.
Michigan’s emergency response has been effective in suppressing the
spread of the COVID19. The number of new confirmed cases each day has been
steadily in decline, and the strain on our health care system’s operational
capacity has relented. As a result of this progress, Michigan has been able to
gradually resume in-person work and activities with certain safety measures in
place. And on June 1, 2020, I issued Executive Order 2020-110, which moved the
state to Stage 4 of the Michigan Safe Start Plan, terminating the requirement
that Michiganders stay home unless critical work or activity to sustain or
protect life requires it.
In light of this transition, the temporary extension of certain FOIA
deadlines provided by Executive Order 2020-38 will no longer be necessary
as soon as public bodies have an opportunity to plan for a return to normal
FOIA response processes. And in light of the reduced strain on the state’s
health care system, Executive Order 2020-39’s temporary relief from certain
restrictions and requirements governing the provision of emergency medical
services and Executive Order 2020-82’s temporary enhancements to the operational
capacity and efficiency of health care facilities are no longer necessary.
Accordingly, acting under the Michigan Constitution of 1963 and Michigan
law, I order the following:
1. Effective immediately, Executive Orders 2020-39 and 2020-82 are rescinded.
2. Executive Order 2020-38 is temporarily extended and will remain in
effect through June 10, 2020. Effective June 11, 2020 at 12:01 am, Executive
Order 2020-38 is rescinded.
Given under my hand and the Great Seal of the State of Michigan.
