Nicole Lee,
National Day of Prayer Pastor of Community Christian Church in Saginaw
Township, offered the following invocation:
“Almighty God…
by Whose great
power & outstretched arm the earth was made (Jeremiah 27:5), from one man
You made all the nations—that they should inhabit the whole earth. And, because
You mark out each person’s appointed time in history, I thank You for each
person You have placed here to serve the people of Michigan. (Acts
17:26)
I ask first, that
You will direct their hearts to Jesus—the only One given to mankind through
Whom we must be saved (Acts 4:12). Enable them to know how deeply they are
loved by the God Who knew them before they were born (Psalm 139:16). Grant them
saving faith enabling them to become part of the amazing Story You have been
writing since before time began.
As I pray
for them today, I ask You to raise up others who will bring their needs
to Your throne in the days to come—that they might receive grace to help in
their time of need (Hebrews 4:16). Bless them with thriving relationships with
their families & strong connections with their communities. And, in these
days of inflamed passions & overblown rhetoric, protect them from harm.
I also ask You to
align their understanding of government with Your Word. Give them hearts
that seek wisdom, ears able to hear Your voice & illumined minds
able to understand Your precepts. Refresh those working hard to form righteous
government in Michigan. Give them courage and the joy that comes from loving
righteousness & hating wickedness (Hebrews 1:9).
Holy Spirit, bring
the fear of God upon those making decisions—for You have set a day when You
will judge our actions & our words (Acts 17:31). Lead them to make only
noble plans that by noble deeds they will stand (Isaiah 32:8).
LORD, what I pray
for this chamber, I pray also for our state. Bring an end to the moral &
cultural civil war that has embittered & prevented us from seeking Your
purposes for Michigan. Send revival, so we can turn to You wholeheartedly, and
enable You to truly bless Michigan. Make this ‘pleasant peninsula’
a place where—when people look around—they see You.
In the name of
Christ Jesus the LORD, I pray. Amen.”

Motions
and Resolutions
Reps. Woolford,

Thompson, Kelly, Meerman, Fox, Bruck, Linting, VanderWall, Hoadley, Alexander,
Tyrone Carter, Fitzgerald, Glanville, Jaime Greene, Rogers and Young offered
the following resolution:
House Resolution
No. 70.
A resolution to
declare April 2025 as Gold Star Spouses Month in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, The term
Gold Star dates back to World War I, when families displayed service flags
bearing a blue star for each active-duty military member, and gold stars were
used to honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice; and
Whereas, Gold Star
Spouses Month honors the surviving husbands and wives of members of the United States
Armed Forces who lost their lives in service to our nation; and
Whereas, Gold Star
spouses bear unimaginable loss with profound strength, resilience, and dignity,
and their sacrifices deserve lasting recognition and gratitude; and
Whereas, The
unwavering devotion and courage of Gold Star spouses and their families reflect
the very best of American values and the enduring cost of freedom; and
Whereas,
Communities across Michigan, alongside veterans organizations and support
networks, continue to offer care, remembrance, and connection to Gold Star
families, ensuring that their loved ones’ legacies are never forgotten; and
Whereas, It is
fitting and proper to recognize and honor the patriotism, pain, and
perseverance of Gold Star spouses; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the
House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare
April 2025 as Gold Star Spouses Month in the state of Michigan; and be it
further
Resolved, That we
honor and remember the lives of the fallen service members whose sacrifice is
etched into the heart of this nation and express our deepest gratitude to the
spouses who carry their memory forward with courage, grace, and enduring love.
The question being

The resolution was

Reps. Weiss,

Martus, Byrnes, Andrews, Mentzer, Hope, O’Neal, Neeley, McKinney, Wegela, Fitzgerald, Glanville, Paiz,
Rogers, Xiong and Young offered the following resolution:
House Resolution
No. 71.
A resolution to
declare April 28, 2025, as Workers Memorial Day in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, On April
28th, 1971, the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) went into effect,
promising every worker the right to safe employment; and
Whereas, Every year
on April 28th, communities and worksites around the world honor friends, family
members, and colleagues who have been killed or injured on the job; and
Whereas, The
Michigan Occupational Safety and Health Administration (MIOSHA) reported 112 “covered”
workplace fatalities between 2022 and 2024—each of these fatalities represents
a worker who did not return home from their workday; and
Whereas, National
fatality statistics compiled by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, which
include transportation accidents, heart attacks, and other causes not “covered”
by MIOSHA, recorded over 16,000 workplace deaths between 2021 and 2023;
and
Whereas, While
definitions may differ, each of these numbers represents a life lost and
underscores the critical importance of workplace safety and health standards;
and
Whereas, It is
appropriate to honor the memory of the courageous and dedicated members of
Michigan’s labor force who have been injured, disabled, or died as a result of
workplace accidents; and
Whereas, We
remember those who have died in workplace catastrophes, suffered occupational
diseases, or been injured due to unsafe working conditions; and
Whereas,
Recognition of the integrity of Michigan’s workforce and its contributions to
the economic growth of our state is vital; and
Whereas, The
Michigan House of Representatives wishes to pay tribute to the workers who have
died, been injured, or disabled in workplace accidents. We call for continued
vigilance and action to prevent future tragedies and protect Michigan’s valued
labor force; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the
House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare
April 28, 2025, as Workers Memorial Day in the state of Michigan.
The question being
on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was
adopted.
Rep. Tisdel offered
the following resolution:
House Resolution
No. 72.
A resolution to
declare April 2025 as Financial Literacy Month in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, The
informed use of credit and other financial products and services benefits
individual consumers and promotes economic growth; and
Whereas, The
Michigan Legislature approved and the Michigan Governor signed House Bill 5190
(PA 105) in 2022 to provide for a stand-alone financial literacy course
requirement for Michigan high school graduates; and
Whereas, Financial
literacy and learning these skills at an early age encourages greater economic
self-sufficiency, higher levels of successful homeownership, and enhanced
retirement security, particularly among low-and moderate-income citizens; and
Whereas, Michigan
has formally participated in financial literacy programming for years through
the collaboration and coordinated effort of hundreds of organizations including
financial institutions, non-profit groups, government entities, schools, and libraries.
The initiative showcases these organizations educational resources, strengthens
public-private partnerships, engages the media, and connects people with
resources to help them better manage their money; and
Whereas, A greater
understanding of, and familiarity with, financial markets and institutions will
lead to increased economic activity and growth; and
Whereas, According
to a 2022 Financial Literacy Survey from the National Foundation for Credit
Counseling, 13% of U.S. adults have a hard time paying monthly bills such as
cell phone or utilities and 11% have missed at least one credit card or
loan payment in the last year; and
Whereas, Personal
financial education and money management skills are crucial to ensure that all
Michiganders and especially our young people are prepared to manage credit and
debt and become responsible workers, heads of households, homeowners, investors,
entrepreneurs, business leaders, and productive citizens; and
Whereas, Expanding
access to the mainstream financial system will provide individuals with less
expensive and more secure funding options for managing finances and building
wealth; and
Whereas, The young
people of our state represent Michigan’s single greatest resource who, in the
years ahead, will assume leadership positions and responsibility for
advancement of our society; and
Whereas, Financial
Literacy Month highlights the commitment of Michigan banks and credit unions to
strengthen the financial knowledge of Michigan citizens to prepare them for a
fiscally-responsible future; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the
House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare
April 2025 Financial Literacy Month in the state of Michigan. We encourage
raising public awareness about the importance of personal financial education
in Michigan and the rest of the United States. This will help address the
serious problems that are associated with mismanagement of personal finances;
and be it further
Resolved, That we
call on each parent, school, business, financial institution, community
organization, and unit of government to observe the month with appropriate
programs and activities.
The question being
on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was
adopted.
Reps. Meerman,
Kelly, Tate, Witwer, Breen, Conlin, MacDonell, Rogers, Tyrone Carter,
Fitzgerald, Glanville, Phil Green, Paiz and Young offered the following
resolution:
House Resolution
No. 73.
Whereas, There are
approximately 5.6 million Americans living with limb loss and limb difference;
and
Whereas, 500,000
new cases of limb loss and limb difference occur annually; and
Whereas, Approximately
1 in every 2,100 children are born each year in the United States with
congenital limb difference and six hundred children lose a limb to a lawn mower
accident every summer; and
Whereas, Diabetes,
vascular disease, and infection are the most common diagnoses preceding an
amputation; and
Whereas, Access to
appropriate prosthetic care for people living with limb loss and limb
difference is vital to enable individuals to reach their full potential and
live healthy, independent lives with the ability to engage in activities of
daily living, essential job-related functions, personal hygiene, and physical
activity to maximize whole body and mental wellbeing; and
Whereas, The
Amputee Coalition provides education, support, and advocacy through the
National Limb Loss Resource Center for the benefit of persons with limb loss
and limb difference, their families, and health care providers throughout the
United States; and
Whereas, April is
an appropriate month to designate as Limb Loss and Limb Difference Awareness
Month as a spring is a time of renewal and inspiration; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the
House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare
April 2025 as Limb Loss and Limb Difference Awareness Month in the state of
Michigan. We encourage all citizens to join in recognizing the importance of
this month by celebrating people living with limb loss and limb difference,
learning about issues affecting people with limb loss, expressing gratitude to
family and caregivers who are a source of support and motivation, and saluting
our veterans who have lost their limbs in service to the is country or in
retirement.
The question being
on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was
