A resolution to commemorate February 1, 2023, as Blue Star Mother’s Day.
Whereas, Blue Star Mothers of America, Inc., is a national organization of mothers whose sons and daughters serve honorably in the nation’s armed forces; and
Whereas, Blue Star Mothers of America, Inc., was founded in Flint, Michigan, in 1942; and
Whereas, The purposes and activities of Blue Star Mothers of America, Inc., include all of the following:
• Perpetuating the memory of the men
and women who have served our country as members of the armed forces;
• Welcoming home returning veterans;
• Visiting wounded veterans in hospitals and rehabilitation centers;
• Assisting in veterans ceremonies;
• Attending patriotic rallies and meetings;
• Maintaining true allegiance to the government of the United States;
• Upholding the American institutions of freedom, justice, and equal rights;
• Caring for the unsupported mothers who gave their sons and daughters to the service of the nation; and
• Providing moral support for members; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the Senate, That the members of this legislative body commemorate February 1, 2023, as Blue Star Mother’s Day; and be it further
Resolved, That we recognize the contributions that Blue Star Mothers of America, Inc., has made to our state and nation.
Senator Singh moved that the rule be suspended.
The motion prevailed, a majority of the members serving voting therefor.
Senators Lauwers, Moss, Santana and Theis were named co-sponsors of the resolution.
The motion prevailed.
Senator Outman’s statement is as follows:
I rise to ask that we designate February 1 as Blue Star Mother’s Day. The Blue Star Mothers organization was founded in Flint in the wake of America’s entrance into World War 2. In late January of 1942, a local Flint paper asked for mothers of servicemen to come together, and on February 1, 1942, 300 such mothers showed up for their first meeting. After that, Blue Star Mothers formed statewide chapters, not just in Michigan but in many other states as well across the country. In 1960, Congress officially chartered the organization.
The Blue Star Mothers service to our nation and our veterans is unquestionable. In addition to giving birth to and raising our servicemen and women, they also help by keeping alive the memory of our men and women in the armed forces, welcoming home returning veterans, visiting our wounded veterans, caring for the unsupported mothers who gave their sons and daughters to the service of our country, and many other ways that we veterans cannot thank them enough.
When I was in the service and I served overseas as a 19 year old kid—thought he was bulletproof, that the world revolved around me, and I really didn’t take into consideration what my parents, my mother in particular, went through as she was on the home front waiting to hear news. Of course, news was a little slower then, of what was happening on the other side of the world. I took it for granted. The only thing I really wanted was to make sure that I got my care packages of all the cookies and stuff that she sent.
The shoe was on the other foot when my son-in-law was in Iraq and then in Afghanistan, and my daughter was home with their new child, and we sat there waiting to hear the news—the concern that we had. It gave me a whole new appreciation for what my mother went through and what all Blue Star Mothers go through.
So I ask my colleagues to adopt this resolution to commemorate Blue Star Mother’s Day and to honor the service and sacrifice of our Blue Star Mothers.
Senate Resolution No. 6.
A resolution to recognize February 2023 as Black History Month.
Whereas, The origins of Black History Month began as a concept in 1915, and in earnest in 1924 when Dr. Carter G. Woodson, through his beloved Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc., created Negro History and Literature Week in the United States. Since 1976, every United States President has adopted the month of February as Black History Month, an annual celebration of African-American achievements and roles in our history; and
Whereas, As a result of growing awareness of Black identity and the contributions of the Civil Rights Movement, Black History Month is a time to reflect on the burdens of racial prejudice and to explore, understand, and appreciate the identities and cultures across and within the African diaspora; and
Whereas, We pay tribute to, not only the many
African-American historical figures in our nation’s history, but also the
hidden figures that have contributed to American ingenuity and innovation
throughout the existence of this great nation, the celebration of which has
evolved into a month-long celebration of Black progress and power; and
Whereas, President Gerald R. Ford officially recognized Black History Month in 1976, calling upon the public to “seize the opportunity to honor the too often neglected accomplishments of Black Americans in every area of endeavor throughout our history”; and
Whereas, Michigan recognizes the injustices that African-Americans have endured and commends the African-American community for the continuous pursuit of overcoming those injustices, while changing the course and nature of history. We honor the prominent leaders and activists who have paved the way for equality and justice; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the Senate, That the members of this legislative body recognize February 2023 as Black History Month; and be it further
Resolved, That we honor the contributions and sacrifices made toward building pride in Black history and educating all Americans; and be it further
Resolved, That during a national pandemic which disproportionately affects African-Americans, we join other organizations throughout the state of Michigan and this country to raise awareness about the hardships African-Americans have endured, celebrate the milestones achieved, and continue the unrelenting pursuit of equality and justice for all.
Senator Singh moved that the rule be suspended.
The motion prevailed, a majority of the members serving voting therefor.
The motion prevailed.
Senator Santana’s statement is as follows:
Today I rise to speak on the resolution before you. Black history is American history, and it is embedded in the stitching of the Stars and Stripes represented by the American flag that hangs high across this great land. Black history flows from the rivers to the journey north to freedom and the path of the Underground Railroad. Black history is heard from the sounds of the African drumbeats from the coast of Africa to the trans-Atlantic trade, to the jute joints in the backwoods of the bayou or the sounds of Motown that continue to warm our souls. Black history has shaped the evolution of American innovations.
If you look around you every day, you will encounter the history of America with Black excellence that still contributes to our society. When you are driving in your car across Michigan and this great country, think about Garrett Morgan who invented the traffic light. Or when you are eating your childhood favorite—peanut butter and jelly—think about George Washington Carver. Every time you put a load of clothes in the dryer, think of George T. Sampson. When you ride the automated elevator back to your office, think about Alexander Miller. When you think of how chilly it is in the winter and how your home is designed to extract the cold air out of one vent and the heat blows in the home from the other vent, think of Alice H. Parker. Lastly, every time you go into a restroom that is modernized, has plumbing instead of an outhouse, think of Thomas Elkins, who modernized the toilet. The list goes on and on and on of how Blacks have contributed to our great American history. The pacemaker, Otis Boykin; potato chips, George Speck; and touchtone phone, Dr. Shirley Ann Jackson.
While we recognize and celebrate Black history each day, we take this month to acknowledge Blacks’ contributions to America in the month of February. I mentioned just a small portion of what Blacks have contributed to innovations and the evolution of America. However, let us not forget the arts, education, science, military, and the highest position of leadership in our country, the President of the United States.
My ask to each of my colleagues in this chamber is to take the time to celebrate the contributions that Black Americans have made to our districts, our state, as well as our nation.

The motion prevailed.
I rise today once again disappointed. I am disappointed because providing tax relief to all inflation weary Michiganders—families, seniors—seemed like something we could all work together on in a bipartisan fashion, Democrats and Republicans can come together and figure out a solution on this. It’s what we all said we were going to do. Unfortunately, Governor Whitmer has different plans, and the Legislature seems to be following those plans, reminding us yet again that her partisan actions always speak louder than her words on bipartisanship.
Mr. President, we were told that Governor Whitmer and the Democrats have not even considered or even discussed preventing the scheduled income tax cut that was going to occur. Six hundred million dollars returned to hardworking taxpayers here in the state of Michigan. We were told that quote, That was political suicide, haven’t even looked at it. But then just yesterday, while the Governor told the press corps that she was simply analyzing the scheduled income tax cut, it turns out she was actually devising a shell game to swindle taxpayers out of their money, to send money that state law says should go to family tax relief to big corporations instead.
And to make matters worse, Mr. President, the Governor is shoehorning her tax increase in a bill that was designed in concept to provide real relief to Michigan families and seniors. A bill that on its own still fails to provide immediate relief now for all seniors—tax hikes, picking winners and losers, and the middle class getting the shaft. We’re only a few weeks into this new Democrat trifecta and it already feels like Michigan’s lost decade.
By unanimous consent the Senate proceeded to the order of
Statements
The motion prevailed.
Senator Anthony’s statement is as follows:
“God of our weary years, God of our silent tears, Thou who hast brought us thus far on the way; Thou who hast by Thy might, Led us into the light, Keep us forever in the path, we pray.”
Today is the first day of Black History Month, a celebration of art, culture, achievement, and Black excellence. While some in this state and across the nation would seek to hide and suppress and demonize and minimize the history of African Americans in this nation, this month we pause to celebrate. This month we honor the arrival of the first enslaved Africans to reach our shores in 1619. We honor our inventors, the civil rights leaders, activists, organizers, social justice warriors. We celebrate authors, educators, inventors, and even lawmakers. It’s a time to celebrate Black girl magic and Black boy joy. A time to celebrate jazz, hip hop, R&B, soul, and Gospel. It’s a time to reflect on Asada Shakur and Medgar Evers, on Shirley Chisholm and Kamala Harris, on Lansing’s very own Malcolm X and Magic Johnson; even a time to celebrate LeBron James inching that much closer to the scoring record in the NBA.
But this month isn’t just celebrating the big names that we read in history books and on pamphlets in barber shops and beauty salons, this month is also an opportunity to celebrate emerging Black history that is made each and every day in every single one of our communities across this state and across the nation. Black folks who are defying stereotypes and statistics and going beyond every expectation that this country has for us.
So, many of us are reaching higher heights despite systemic racism and oppression and injustice. This Black History Month, we ask you to join us as we celebrate Black achievement, Black excellence, and we will continue to march on until victory is truly won.
Senator Runestad’s statement is as follows:
Today I stand before you to bring a serious matter to your attention about Michigan’s child protective services. It has been failing children and families and the results are having tragic consequences. This past week in Lincoln Park, five-year-old Ethan Belcher had his life taken from him. His mother and stepfather were charged with his murder. News outlets have reported that Ethan’s extended family members have been in contact with CPS over the course of several years with concerns about physical abuse. Detroit Channel 4 news reporters attempted to investigate CPS’ interactions with the family using the Freedom of Information Act, but were denied by DHHS officials because CPS cases and information are “not available by FOIA as it is exempt from FOIA.”
This news was surprising to our Governor
who told Local 4 that “you’re educating me right now,” and “I think that
perhaps there is an opportunity for us to take a real hard look at it and see
what more we can do.” Colleagues, we must do more and we must start doing more
right now. Earlier this month I inquired whether CPS has had any previous
contact with the Oakland County mother who was found frozen to death in a field
with her two sons. I was told that DHHS is extremely limited to the point of
absolutely zero information in what it can share with a legislator regarding
child protective services cases, including whether or not the department has
even ever had contact with a particular family. Strict privacy laws are
necessary and rightly protective when it comes to these personal situations.
There must also, though, be room for investigation and oversight in order to
prevent future tragedies and provide justice when it is needed. That is why
tomorrow I am holding a press conference to outline the serious issue that has
plagued our state decade after decade. Our children have been seriously
neglected in terms of ensuring their safety as it relates to past, and I
believe current, CPS involvement. I believe it can be vastly improved with more
transparency. My bill to create more transparency relating to CPS cases under
certain circumstances by allowing any sitting member of the Legislature to
access this kind of information and to provide professional news organizations
with access to the agency. I will be joined by Ethan’s loving aunts Ashley
Belcher and Candace Rush.
Colleagues, these recent events and many similar events have shined a serious spotlight on CPS. What we are seeing can only be described as nothing short of a disaster. CPS cannot continue to operate in the dark, shielded from oversight. This agency cannot be allowed to operate with total stonewalling secrecy when there are so many innocent lives at risk. The problems at CPS have developed over decades under both party’s administrations. Now it’s way past time to come together for a bipartisan solution. I hope you will join me in working to solve this ever-lingering catastrophe on behalf of vulnerable children and families who rely on CPS for support and protection.
While more can and will need to be done in the future, more transparency is the best first step. We must ensure that CPS can be properly investigated when necessary.
