Rep. Lori M. Stone, from the 13th District, offered the following invocation:
“In this garden of ideas, let growth be our shared aspiration. Picture our thoughts as seeds, each one carrying the potential to bloom into something magnificent. With the nourishment of collective discussion, may these seeds sprout, unfurling leaves of innovation and petals of progress.
As we nurture these ideas with care and attention, let this invocation of growth remind us that our potential is boundless, and our capacity for positive transformation knows no limits.
Let us think carefully before we speak. Let us humble ourselves as we serve. Let us generously sow gratitude. Let us live everyday with intention.”
______
The Speaker called the Speaker Pro Tempore to the Chair.
______
Rep. Posthumus moved that Rep. Jaime Greene be excused from today’s session.
The motion prevailed.
Motions and Resolutions
Reps. Thompson, Alexander, Bezotte, Bierlein, Bollin, Breen, Dievendorf, Haadsma, Hood, Koleszar, Lightner, Morse, Paiz, Rheingans, Rogers, Schuette and Young offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 157.
A resolution to declare October 22-28, 2023, as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Awareness Week in Michigan.
Whereas, At least four million children, or five percent of the pediatric population, and at least nine million adults, or four percent of the adult population, in the United States have Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD); and
Whereas, Research shows that ADHD is the result of an imbalance of neurotransmitters in the brain. The primary symptoms of ADHD are inattention, impulsiveness, and hyperactivity; and
Whereas, ADHD has been recognized as a legitimate diagnosis of neurological disorder by the American Medical Association, American Academy of Pediatrics, the United States Department of Education, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the National Institute of Mental Health, the American Psychiatric Association and the American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare October 22-28, 2023, as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Awareness Week in the state of Michigan.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.
Reps. Rheingans, Stone, MacDonell, Morgan, Conlin, Coffia, McFall, Byrnes, Skaggs, Price, Hope, Wilson, Paiz, Dievendorf, Brabec, McKinney, Martus, Bezotte and Hood offered the following concurrent resolution:
House Concurrent Resolution No. 8.
Whereas, In 2022, Michigan voters ratified
Proposal 1, which amended Article IV, § 10 of the Constitution of the
State of Michigan of 1963 to require all members of the Legislature, the
Governor, the Lieutenant Governor, the Secretary of State, and the Attorney
General to make annual financial disclosures. These officials are now required
to make a detailed series of financial disclosures which are to be filed with
the Department of State and made available to the public online; and
Whereas, Proposal 1 does not apply to members of the judiciary. However, it remains the case that judicial officers make decisions that affect the state. Moreover, transparency is in the best interest of the public. Voters and litigants should be aware of any potential financial conflicts of interest that judges have when ruling on cases; and
Whereas, While the Code of Judicial Conduct currently requires that Michigan judges make certain financial disclosures, it does not require disclosures that are as thorough or as easily scrutinized as those required by Proposal 1. For example, the Code of Judicial Conduct does not require that judges disclose their existing assets, the sources of their unearned income, or their liabilities. It also does not require that the disclosures that judges make be made available to the public online; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), That we urge the Michigan Supreme Court to amend the Code of Judicial Conduct to require that supreme court justices, judges of the court of appeals, and judges of any other court they deem necessary, make annual financial disclosures to at least the same degree of thoroughness, and with the same level of public accessibility, as the disclosures ratified by Proposal 1 into Article IV, § 10 of the Constitution of the State of Michigan of 1963; and be it further
Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to the Michigan Supreme Court.
The concurrent resolution was referred to the Committee on Government Operations.
The Speaker laid before the House
House Resolution No. 156.
A resolution to declare October 2023 as Breast Cancer Awareness Month in the state of Michigan.
(The resolution was introduced and postponed for the day on October 24, see House Journal No. 88, p. 2049.)
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.
