Kaitlyn O'Neil, Representative O'Neil's daughter, from the St. Francis Cabrini School in Allen Park, offered the following invocation:
"Dear Lord, Blessed is the One within the many. Blessed are the Many who make one! We join together today as a nation of God's children--wrapping our world in a blanket of prayer. May each of our voices be a thread of God's message, and as we weave our threads together with the voices of others, may we together form a blanket of love, peace, justice, and compassion that will cover our nation with the warmth of God's Grace.
Blessed is the One within the many. Blessed are the Many who make one! Amen."

Rep. Switalski, having reserved the right to explain his protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:
"Mr. Speaker and members of the House:
This bill adds language that says a statute can 'mandate a sentence that exceeds the recommended sentence range but is less than the mandatory minimum sentence.' In an open and honest government, 'mandatory minimum sentence' must mean just that. To allow otherwise debases the English language, violates crime victims a 2nd time, and perpetuates a continuing fraud upon the public."

Last year the citizens of the state voted to borrow billions of dollars for the environment. They deserve to know that the department which will spend much of that money can manage itself well enough to keep its annual budget increase within the rate of inflation."

I voted 'no' on this budget because I was elected on a promise to shrink government, not grow it. The increase in the general purpose/general fund portion of this budget, the portion of the budget which comes from state taxes, exceeds the rate of inflation for the past year.
Not long ago the DNR came begging to the legislature to let them raise a whole host of license fees, including major increases in those for senior citizens. The legislature gave in on that, and now is being asked to give even more to this department. The DNR and most of the other departments of state government should learn from the lean and mean private sector economy, where in the last decade businesses have learned to do more with less."

Participants must make satisfactory progress while in training/education. The department shall submit these guidelines to the house and senate appropriations subcommittees with jurisdiction over the department, over the department of career development, and to the house and senate fiscal agencies by October 1, 1999.
(2) Work first participants may meet the work participation requirement by combining a minimum of 10 hours per week of work with training/education, as determined in subsection (1). Training/education may last up to 12 months and the calculated hours may include actual classroom seat time up to 10 hours per week plus up to 1 hour of study time for each hour of classroom seat time. The combined work and training/education hours must equal the minimum number of hours required to meet the federal work participation requirements which are 30 hours per week for a single parent, 35 hours per week for 2-parent families, 55 hours if utilizing federally funded day care, and 20 hours per week for single parents with a child under the age of 6. Work first participants may enroll in additional hours of classroom seat time beyond the 10 hours, however, these hours and the related study time will not count toward the work participation requirement. The training may be no longer than a 1-year program, which may include the final year of a 2- or 4-year undergraduate program which is designed to lead to immediate labor force attachment, as determined in subsection (1).
(3) Work first participants may meet the federal work participation requirement through enrollment in a short-term vocational program, as determined in subsection (1), requiring 30 hours of classroom seat time per week for a period not to exceed 6 months, or by enrollment in full-time internships, practicums, or clinicals required by an academic or training institution for licensure, professional certification, or degree completion, as determined in subsection (1), without an additional work requirement. Two-parent families who receive federally funded day care must work an additional 25 hours per week to meet the federal work participation requirement.
(4) Work first participants who lack a high school diploma or GED and who enroll in high school completion or classes to obtain a GED may count up to 10 hours of classroom seat time, combined with a minimum of number of hours of work per week, to meet their federal work participation requirement. There shall be no time limit on high school completion. GED preparation shall be limited to 6 months." and renumbering the remaining subsection.

House Resolution No. 109.
A resolution to memorialize the President and the Congress of the United States to appropriate sufficient funds to allow the Veterans Administration Medical Clinic in Allen Park to provide services five days per week.
Whereas, The United States has the most comprehensive health-care system for veterans and dependents in the world. This noble tradition dates back to 1636, when the Pilgrims of Plymouth Colony passed legislation providing for disabled soldiers who warred against the Pequot Indians; and
Whereas, The Veterans Administration (VA) Medical Clinic in Allen Park has been providing quality medical care for veterans and dependents since the facility opened in 1939. As a vital component of the VA's health-care system, the Allen Park VA Medical Clinic has been indispensable in meeting local health care needs in the most cost-effective manner and providing convenient access to quality out-patient medical care; and
Whereas, Since the opening of the John D. Dingell Detroit VA Medical Center in June 1996, the VA Medical Clinic in Allen Park has been operating only two days per week. This reduction in hours has caused numerous difficulties. Many veterans are forced to travel a considerable distance to the parent facility in Detroit. Moreover, the shortening of hours has reduced the availability of medical appointments and has caused scheduled medical appointments to last up to a full day; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we memorialize the President and the Congress of the United States to appropriate sufficient funds to allow the Veterans Administration Medical Clinic in Allen Park to provide services five days per week; and be it further
Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the President of the United States, Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, the President of the United States Senate, and the members of the Michigan congressional delegation.
The resolution was referred to the Committee on Veterans Affairs.

House Resolution No. 110.
A resolution honoring Frank Pappas and the re-opening of Pappas' Restaurant.
Whereas, Mr. Frank Pappas of Cheboygan, Michigan has been in the restaurant business continuously since the first Carnation Restaurant was established in 1925 by Mr. Pappas' father, Jack Pappas, an immigrant of Greece; and
Whereas, Frank Pappas had for the last twenty years operated Pappas' Restaurant on Main Street in Cheboygan, Michigan and his restaurant was one of the most popular eateries in northern Michigan; and
Whereas, An accidental fire on August 23, 1998 destroyed his restaurant completely, fortunately without loss of life; and
Whereas, Mr. Pappas, although now seventy-four years of age, has decided with his son, Jack Pappas, to rebuild from the ashes a new and finer restaurant which will have its grand opening in early June, 1999; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we hereby congratulate Frank Pappas and appreciate and commend his courage and resolve to rebuild and operate a fine new restaurant in Cheboygan, Michigan, continuing the tradition of over seventy-seven years; and be it further
Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to Mr. Pappas, his son, and family as evidence of our best wishes for every success in keeping the Pappas' Restaurant tradition alive in northern Michigan.
Pending the reference of the resolution to a committee,
Rep. Raczkowski moved that Rule 77 be suspended and the resolution be considered at this time.
The motion prevailed, 3/5 of the members present voting therefor.

House Concurrent Resolution No. 39.
A concurrent resolution to memorialize the President and the Congress of the United States to appropriate sufficient funds to allow the Veterans Administration Medical Clinic in Allen Park to provide services five days per week.
Whereas, The United States has the most comprehensive health-care system for veterans and dependents in the world. This noble tradition dates back to 1636, when the Pilgrims of Plymouth Colony passed legislation providing for disabled soldiers who warred against the Pequot Indians; and
