Rep. Larry DeVuyst, from the 93rd District, offered the following invocation:
"No one should fear to undertake any task in the name of our Savior, if it is just and the intention is purely for His holy service. The working out of all things has been assigned to each person here by our Lord, but it all happens according to His sovereign will and by the will and blessing of God. May this country become a splendid monument, not of oppression and terror, but of wisdom, peace and liberty. Father, we ask Your guidance and protection as we try to make this part of America a better place to work, to live and to serve. We pray in the name of Your son and our Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen."

In The Chair: Julian
The House agreed to the title of the bill.
______
Reps. Adamini and Rich Brown, having reserved the right to explain their protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:
"Mr. Speaker and members of the House:
I voted against HB 5642 because there is a $167,000 decrease in General Fund dollars to the UP State Fair. The UP State Fair is annual family event in Escanaba.
The staff from the Department of Agriculture said that it was part of their five-year plan to have the Fair to be self-sufficient. That was their rationale for the decrease.
I looked in the boilerplate of every budget since Fiscal Year 1990-1. There was no language confirming this five-year plan. There were no references to the plan in administrative rule.
In the House Appropriations Committee, it was mentioned that the plan was simply a bureaucratic mandate with no legislative intent.
Right now, we need to encourage more quality family time in the northern part of the state. Reducing funding for the UP State Fair moves in the opposite direction.
Although there are other notable elements of the Fiscal Year 2002-3 Agriculture budget, the fact that this budget includes a decrease to the UP State Fair is the rationale for my no vote of HB 5642."

The substitute (H-1) was adopted, a majority of the members serving voting therefor.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
Rep. Bogardus moved to amend the resolution as follows:
1. Amend the first Resolving clause, line 1, after "That" by striking out the balance of the clause and inserting "any reform of the current federal program for issuing temporary agricultural worker visas (H-2A visas) should guarantee workers already in the country and those who come in the future equitable and enforceable labor rights, including at least the same labor laws that protect United States farm workers, access to social and health protections, and a path
to lawful immigration status and citizenship for those who seek it. To prevent the displacement of legal domestic farm workers, temporary foreign worker visas should continue to be issued for foreign laborers in Michigan only in response to measurable labor market needs in Michigan; and be it further".
The motion did not prevail and the amendment was not adopted, a majority of the members serving not voting therefor.

"An act to revise, consolidate, codify and add to the statutes relating to crimes; to define crimes and prescribe the penalties therefor; to provide for restitution under certain circumstances; to provide for the competency of evidence at the trial of persons accused of crime; to provide immunity from prosecution for certain witnesses appearing at such trials; and to repeal certain acts and parts of acts inconsistent with or contravening any of the provisions of this act,".

Rep. Clark, having reserved the right to explain her nay vote, made the following statement:
"Mr. Speaker and members of the House:
I voted no on final passage of Senate Bill 930 because despite attempts to narrow this bill's scope, there remains a risk of political misuse in its implementation. Senate Bill 930 will create situations in which prosecutors will be able to choose whether to prosecute someone for the crime of 'terrorism' rather than a specific underlying crime, and in such cases prosecutors may choose to pursue a terrorism charge based on a defendant's political views.
I take very seriously my responsibility as a legislator to safeguard the rights of individuals to free speech and free association as protected the Constitution. This bill creates too great a potential that the exercise of these rights may be chilled, or that people may face additional criminal liability based on the political views they may or may not hold.
Furthermore, the version of this bill that the House passed today does not contain an important safeguard that was included in the bill when it originally passed the House--the Senate removed the bill's sunset provision that would have required the Legislature to revisit this law in two years to evaluate its implementation."

This bill creates too great a potential that the exercise of these Constitutional protected rights maybe be chilled, or that people may face additional criminal liability based on the political views they may or may not hold. We have seen the apprehension and incarceration of our constituents in southeast Michigan with failure to be brought up on any charges. These actions make me very leary of endorsing this legislation.
Furthermore, the version of this bill that the House passed today does not contain an important safeguard that was included in the bill when it originally passed the House-the Senate removed the bill's sunset provision that would have required the Legislature to revisit this law in two years to evaluate its implementation. Without this safeguard I could not vote for this bill."

Pursuant to Joint Rule 20, the full title of the act shall be inserted to read as follows:
"An act to provide for the levy and collection of a state education tax; to create the education finance authority and board; to prescribe the powers and duties of the authority and the board; to provide for the levy of a tax by the authority and the distribution of the tax; and to prescribe the duties of certain state officers,".

Reps. Reeves, Hardman, Garza, Clark, Bogardus and Dennis, having reserved the right to explain their protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:
"Mr. Speaker and members of the House:
I voted no on Senate Bills 1165 and 1166 because I believe it is a temporary solution to a long-term problem. Although this bill provides a creative fix to raise K-12 education foundation grants to $6700 per pupil, it mortgages our future to pay for today's budget crisis. In fiscal year 2003-04, this change will create a deficit in the School Aid budget of almost $500 million. In addition, by cutting the State Education Tax rate from 6 mills to 5, this bill eliminates over $250 million in School Aid funding. This is Enron style fiscal irresponsibility, particularly in today's tenuous economic situation. Rather than continuing to rely on short-term fixes, Michigan needs to correct its structural budget flaws so that we can fully fund priorities such as education."
Rep. Waters, having reserved the right to explain her protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:

Rep. Woodward, 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:
I voted no on Senate Bills 1165 and 1166 because they are a short-sighted attempt to balance the state's budget on our future. This kind of economics is not good for an individual, and it is not good for Michigan. I have always supported the highest funding for our public schools possible, but this is a short-time fix that is going to result in a long-term shortage in the School Aid Fund. There are other ways to fulfill the upcoming Education's budget than balancing it on the backs of students in the future. I strongly believe in increasing the minimum foundation per pupil allowance to $6,700, and there are many other alternatives we could have employed to make this happen. Poor management of our state dollars has helped create this problem, a long-term strategy needs to be implemented to fully fund our state priorities- namely education. Worst yet, is that working families and seniors that live in Royal Oak, Madison Heights, and Hazel Park on limited and fixed incomes are going to pay more taxes in a shorter amount of time. When many people I represent are living month-to-month and struggling to make current ends meet, this bill speeds up the time that you have to pay their school taxes. This has the initial effect of a tax increase on those who are least able to afford it. What are those who are struggling to afford food, prescription drugs, and other needs going to have to give up in order to pay their taxes six months early?In the end, this bill eliminates $250 million in future School Aid Funding, and creates a potential $500 million deficit in the 2003-04 school budget. The people of Michigan deserve more than a temporary quick fix for a long-term problem."

Reps. Reeves, Hardman, Garza, Clark, Bogardus and Dennis, having reserved the right to explain their protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:
"Mr. Speaker and members of the House:
I voted no on Senate Bills 1165 and 1166 because I believe it is a temporary solution to a long-term problem. Although this bill provides a creative fix to raise K-12 education foundation grants to $6700 per pupil, it mortgages our future to pay for today's budget crisis. In fiscal year 2003-04, this change will create a deficit in the School Aid budget of almost $500 million. In addition, by cutting the State Education Tax rate from 6 mills to 5, this bill eliminates over $250 million in School Aid funding. This is Enron style fiscal irresponsibility, particularly in today's tenuous economic situation. Rather than continuing to rely on short-term fixes, Michigan needs to correct its structural budget flaws so that we can fully fund priorities such as education."
Rep. Waters, having reserved the right to explain her protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:

Rep. Woodward, 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:
I voted no on Senate Bills 1165 and 1166 because they are a short-sighted attempt to balance the state's budget on our future. This kind of economics is not good for an individual, and it is not good for Michigan. I have always supported the highest funding for our public schools possible, but this is a short-time fix that is going to result in a long-term shortage in the School Aid Fund. There are other ways to fulfill the upcoming Education's budget than balancing it on the backs of students in the future. I strongly believe in increasing the minimum foundation per pupil allowance to $6,700, and there are many other alternatives we could have employed to make this happen. Poor management of our state dollars has helped create this problem, a long-term strategy needs to be implemented to fully fund our state priorities- namely education. Worst yet, is that working families and seniors that live in Royal Oak, Madison Heights, and Hazel Park on limited and fixed incomes are going to pay more taxes in a shorter amount of time. When many people I represent are living month-to-month and struggling to make current ends meet, this bill speeds up the time that you have to pay their school taxes. This has the initial effect of a tax increase on those who are least able to afford it. What are those who are struggling to afford food, prescription drugs, and other needs going to have to give up in order to pay their taxes six months early?In the end, this bill eliminates $250 million in future School Aid Funding, and creates a potential $500 million deficit in the 2003-04 school budget. The people of Michigan deserve more than a temporary quick fix for a long-term problem."

House Resolution No. 381.
A resolution honoring the life of Seymour Gretchko, Ph.D.
Whereas, The recent passing of Seymour Gretchko, Ph.D., has deeply saddened those whose lives he touched throughout his career in public education. We wish to extend a heartfelt condolence to the family and friends of Seymour Gretchko; and
Whereas, Dr. Gretchko devoted his life to the education field. He was a strong advocate for public education, always placing children first. He began his career in the Detroit Public Schools as a teacher in 1952. His fondness and ability to relate to children led him to take a position as a counselor. Later, his administrative capabilities enabled him to serve as principal and from there, he rose to the rank of district superintendent; and
Whereas, After retiring from the Detroit Public Schools in 1982, Dr. Gretchko shared his talents with the West Bloomfield School District. The citizens and the education system of West Bloomfield soon realized the accomplishments of this distinguished man. In 1995, the school district honored the work of Dr. Gretchko by naming the new elementary school for him, Gretchko Elementary. This gave him the distinction of being the only living superintendent in the state of Michigan with a school named in his honor. A further testament to his greatness is the honor of being named the 2000 Michigan Superintendent of the Year; and
Whereas, We all have the desire to be remembered by those we encounter along one life journey. Many people hold fond memories of Dr. Seymour Gretchko and admire him for his tireless efforts, dependability, and his versatility in addressing the needs of the educational system. In paying homage to his life and memory, we also honor the people who were closest to him. May they find comfort in the knowledge that many people share in their bereavement and that the legacy of his accomplishments will long continue to help others; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body honor the life of Seymour Gretchko, Ph.D.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.

House Resolution No. 382.
A resolution commemorating the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Michigan Sea Grant partnership in Great Lakes science and education between the University of Michigan and Michigan State University and declaring the week of April 15, 2002, as Michigan Sea Grant Week.
Whereas, The Great Lakes are Michigan's greatest natural resource. These incomparable freshwater seas present innumerable opportunities and challenges for Michigan. One of the largest opportunities for those living in the Great Lakes state of Michigan is to live in harmony within its ecosystem. Therefore, it is critical for people to develop an understanding of the Great Lakes and make a commitment to preserve and enhance the Lakes; and
Whereas, For the past twenty-five years, the University of Michigan and Michigan State University have worked cooperatively to contribute to the body of scientific knowledge about the Great Lakes and to convey this knowledge to Michigan's citizens, stakeholders, and others; and
Whereas, The knowledge developed through Michigan Sea Grant research, and the application of this science to the many communities throughout the state, has saved hundreds of millions of dollars, contributed to economic health, and restored environmental integrity. The outreach efforts of the Michigan Sea Grant has helped save lives, produced techniques for saving shoreline properties, and promoted the health of our commercial and recreational fisheries; and,
Whereas, The education efforts of the Michigan Sea Grant have introduced thousands of primary and university students to the wonder of the Great Lakes and promoted a greater understanding of the most important resource in the state of Michigan among the citizens and stakeholders of the state; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body commemorate the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Michigan Sea Grant partnership in Great Lakes science and education between the University of Michigan and Michigan State University and declare the week of April 15, 2002, as Michigan Sea Grant Week; and be it further
Resolved, That we hereby recognize the vital importance and significant contributions of the Michigan Sea Grant college program, a partnership of the University of Michigan and Michigan State University to expand the state's Great Lakes opportunities and to help exceed our challenge; and be it further
Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to Michigan Sea Grant as a token of our esteem.

House Resolution No. 383.
A resolution recognizing and honoring the Avon Breast Cancer 3-Day event in Michigan on May 31 through June 2, 2002.
Whereas, Since 1993, the Avon Breast Cancer Crusade, a United States initiate of Avon Products, Inc., has sponsored several fundraising efforts. The Avon Breast Cancer 3-Day event is one of these fundraising events. The goal of the Avon Breast Cancer Crusade is to benefit all women, with a special emphasis on reaching the medically underserved, including low-income, elderly, minority women, and those with inadequate health insurance; and
Whereas, The mission of the Avon Breast Cancer Crusade is to fund access to care and find a cure for breast cancer. The Avon Breast Cancer Crusade supports its mission through five vital areas of the breast cancer cause: biomedical research, clinical care, financial assistance and support services, educational seminars and advocacy training, and early detection and awareness programs nationwide; and
Whereas, The Avon Breast Cancer Crusade helps women, most of whom are underserved and would not otherwise have access to education and diagnostic services, detect breast cancer early enough to survive. The Avon Breast Cancer 3-Day event, only four years old, is a blossoming event that has seen over 58,000 people participate. The Michigan walk from Ann Arbor to Detroit is one of thirteen such events across the country; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by The House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body recognize and honor the Avon Breast Cancer 3-Day event in Michigan on May 31 through June 2, 2002; and be it further
Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to Pallotta TeamWorks, the organizers of the event, as a token of our esteem.

House Resolution No. 384.
A resolution honoring Wilkie Elizabeth and William Johnson as they celebrate their 63rd wedding anniversary.
Whereas, It is a distinct honor to join with the family and friends of Wilkie and William Johnson of Detroit, Michigan, as they celebrate their 63rd wedding anniversary. As they gather to mark this milestone in their lives, it is most appropriate to commend them for the manner in which their strong relationship has enhanced our state and the experiences of all those fortunate enough to know these two fine people; and
Whereas, On April 13, 2002, Mr. and Mrs. Johnson will renew the vows they spoke 63 years ago. The Johnsons have been recalling those vows every day, not just by words, but by the commitment they make in their deeds in coping with the challenges of life and the joys of this world. As the Johnsons would quickly affirm, no marriage can reach the milestone of 63 years without commitment and renewal; and
Whereas, Since they pledged their trust, respect, and affection in marriage, Wilkie and William Johnson have also witnessed changes in their own lives. Certainly, the central point of their attention is their family, to whom they have given countless gifts. Among the most precious of these gifts given to their 2 children, 5 grandchildren, 2 great-grandchildren, and their entire family, is the example of a wonderful marriage. As they mark this day, may they also know that this example has enriched our entire state; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body honor Wilkie Elizabeth and William Johnson as they celebrate their 63rd wedding anniversary. May they continue to grow closer to one another with each passing day; and be it further
Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to Wilkie and William Johnson as evidence of our great respect for their 63 years of marriage.

House Resolution No. 385.
A resolution to express disappointment with the closure of the Holland LifeSavers plant and to call for certain actions in response.
Whereas, The LifeSavers company has been located in Holland, Michigan, since 1967. Since that time, it has provided the Holland area economy with over 600 full-time jobs; and
Whereas, LifeSavers company recently announced the closing of its doors in Holland and the relocation of all of its production outside of Michigan and the United States by moving operations to Canada, for reasons that the LifeSavers company describes as a cost savings; and
Whereas, The LifeSavers company rejected an offer from the state of Michigan through the Michigan Economic Development Corporation to provide incentives of over $38 million for it to stay in Michigan and keep those 600 jobs in Michigan; and
Whereas, The Michigan House of Representatives, while recognizing that a global economy exists and that economic decisions, including decisions of location or relocation, are the prerogatives of a company, shares in the disappointment of the Holland area and of those individuals who have lost their jobs at LifeSavers because of the plant closing and the shift of those jobs to Canada; and
Whereas, The LifeSavers company generates a significant percentage of its annual sales in the United States; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we call upon all Michigan citizens and people throughout the United States to refrain from purchasing LifeSavers candy for a period of two weeks, from June 1, 2002, through June 14, 2002, in a symbolic gesture of our deep sadness and disappointment over the decision of the LifeSavers company to leave the state of Michigan and the United States. We encourage this action as a gesture of support toward those workers who have lost or will soon lose their jobs because of the relocation. We recognize that an economic decision has been made by the LifeSavers company and encourage the people of Michigan, in this small way, to make an economic decision of their own to express their feelings about the closing of the Holland LifeSavers plant; and be it further
Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to the LifeSavers company.

House Resolution No. 386.
A resolution commemorating the month of April 2002 as Raise the Flags and Dig Safely Month.
Whereas, The month of April, traditionally the beginning of the construction season, will be known as Raise the Flags and Dig Safely Month; and
Whereas, The beginning of April brings with it increased construction activity. The growth in construction has led to an expansion in damages to underground facilities, which consist of cables and pipes located under the ground's surface. At times, these incidents have resulted in the loss of communication and utility service, sometimes causing damage to private property and even serious injury to Michigan's citizens and businesses. Michigan's major gas, electric, and telecommunication companies, as well as other associated groups, including the AUC: Michigan's Heavy Construction Association, MISS DIG System, Inc., and the Michigan Public Service Commission have come together to develop and implement the best practices designed to decrease such incidents; and
Whereas, The Raise the Flag campaign, sponsored by Consumers Energy, Michigan Consolidated Gas Company, Detroit Edison, and Ameritech, draws attention to the need to call MISS DIG. The campaign encourages contractors and the general public to call MISS DIG before digging, wait the required time to allow for staking, respect the staking flags, and dig carefully; and
Whereas, The Michigan Damage Prevention Board hopes to increase public safety by developing and implementing appropriate best practices and education programs which will significantly reduce accidents resulting from damage to underground facilities. Participants on the board include, Ameritech, AUC: Michigan's Heavy Construction Association, Associated Petroleum Industries of Michigan, Consumers Energy, Detroit Edison, Michigan Consolidated Gas Company, Marathon-Ashland Pipeline, Michigan Electric Cooperative Association, Michigan Electric and Gas Association, SEMCO Energy, Verizon, Telecommunications Association of Michigan, MISS DIG System, Inc., and the Michigan Public Service Commission; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body commemorate the month of April 2002 as Raise the Flags and Dig Safely Month. We commend Michigan's major gas, electric, and telecommunication companies, as well as other associated groups, for coming together to find ways to decrease the number of incidents that damage underground facilities; and be it further
Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to the Michigan Damage Prevention Board as a reflection of our appreciation for their efforts to ensure public safety.
Pending the reference of the resolution to a committee,
Rep. Patterson 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.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.

House Resolution No. 387.
A resolution honoring Captain Robert Arvin's life and the VFW Post 2408 as they celebrate their 70th anniversary.
Whereas, It is with shared commitment to the noble ideals of our country that we join with the membership of the VFW Post 2408 in saluting Captain Robert Arvin, an Ypsilanti native, as this loyal and unselfish individual is honored for his dedication to our country. As members and friends gather to remember this patriotic man, we add our own thanks for the contributions Captain Robert Arvin made to keep our cherished liberties alive; and
Whereas, A veteran of service with the 82nd Airborne Division, Captain Robert Arvin, in a brief span of 23 months service, demonstrated outstanding professional competence and leadership. He rapidly rose through the ranks, serving briefly as platoon leader and executive officer, and then became the youngest company commander in the Division; and
Whereas, Captain Arvin received orders for Vietnam in early 1967, assigning him as an advisor in the Military Assistance Command Vietnam. He reported to his advisory detachment, the 7th Vietnamese Airborne Battalion in May of 1967. On September 5, 1967, Captain Arvin received the Silver Star and Purple Heart as a result of combat action; and
Whereas, Captain Robert Arvin returned to duty after a brief hospitalization. On October 8, 1967, Captain Arvin's unit was engaged in clearing enemy forces from an area threatening a vital air base. During the sweep, his unit was engaged by an entrenched enemy regiment and was pinned down in an exposed position. Captain Arvin's actions to dislodge the threatening elements of the enemy force resulted in his being mortally wounded. His valor was recognized by an award of a second Silver Star; and
Whereas, Captain Robert Arvin was an outstanding example of the kind of person who is not content to sit idly by while others take action. Through his commitment and love for our country, he made it clear that we have opportunities each and every day to put our love of country to good use in helping out our fellow citizens; and
Whereas, The VFW Post 2408 will hold its 70th year anniversary celebration this year. On June 15, 2002, the VFW Post 2408 will name their post in honor of Captain Robert Arvin, a local American hero. We all benefit from the patriotism of a man like Captain Robert Arvin; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body honor the life of Captain Robert Arvin. We recognize him for his excellence in service to his country; and be it further
Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to the VFW Post 2408 as they celebrate their 70th anniversary.

House Resolution No. 388.
A resolution honoring the life of Elder James Howard Reid.
Whereas, It is with deep appreciation for the hard work, dedication, and professionalism that James Howard Reid has put forth on behalf of the people of the city of Detroit, that we acknowledge his achievements and express our sorrow at his passing. The people of the city of Detroit have lost a conscientious individual who always put the interests of others first; and
Whereas, James Howard Reid was born on December 10, 1918, the eighth of eighteen children of Enoch and Nancy Reid, in Abbeville, Georgia. He attended and graduated from Gillespie Institution Presbyterian High School. From 1941 to 1945, he served his country in the United States Armed Services, and left with an honorable discharge. After serving his country, he moved to Detroit and graduated from the Detroit Institute of Commerce. He then majored in political science and public speaking at Wayne State University, a course of study which prepared him for the political and public advocacy that he practiced all his life; and
Whereas, Mr. Reid married Bertha Wilson on December 20, 1947, and their happy union lasted over 54 years. A deeply religious person, James Howard Reid was a member of the Mt. Zuma Baptist Church in Georgia and the St. John Presbyterian Church in Detroit. He was ordained as an Elder and served as Chairman of the Personnel and Administration Committee at St. John. He was also a member of Christ Presbyterian Church and Calvin Presbyterian Church; and
Whereas, Mr. Reid gave 34 years of dedicated service to the United States Postal Service, assisting many other postal employees as President of the National Alliance of Postal Employees for two consecutive terms; and
Whereas, He traveled extensively during his 20 years of enjoyable retirement, but still took the time to serve as an Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) investigator and representative, working to save his clients' jobs and fairly represent their interests. With the personal sense of duty that James Howard Reid brought to every aspect of his life and work each day, he met each challenge with enthusiasm and a genuine interest in the people he vigorously served. This has been deeply appreciated, both by citizens and organizations in the city of Detroit that have benefited directly from James Howard Reid's work; and
Whereas, Mr. Reid was appointed captain of the region of the East Outer Drive Community Association and helped members obtain needed grants for their home repairs. He was a member of the EEOC and sponsored a little league baseball team. He supported political candidates he believed were worthwhile and gave his all for the people of the city of Detroit; and
Whereas, Elder James Howard Reid passed away to a better place on March 13, 2002, leaving behind a legacy of love with his beloved wife, Bertha; his four sisters, Mattie Staley, Ruby Brown, Florence Reid-Childs, and Lottie Reid; his brother, Ross Reid; six sisters-in-law, Lillie Pearl Reid, Ruth Reid, Corine Reid, Corine Reid, Carrie Sue Greene, and Bobbie Paymond; two brothers-in-law, Nathaniel Wilson and Andrew Paymond; 108 nieces and 122 nephews, as well as other relatives, friends and his constant friend, "Bud"; now, therefore, be it further
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body honor the life of Elder James Howard Reid. We join with the family, friends, loved ones, and citizens of the city of Detroit in acknowledgment of his outstanding years of public service and in sharing their sorrow at his loss; and be it further
Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to the family of James Howard Reid as a token of our esteem.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.
Reps. Cassis, Kowall, Wojno, Ruth Johnson, Rocca, Bishop, Faunce, Schauer and Cameron Brown offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 389.
A resolution to memorialize the Congress of the United States to enact legislation to authorize states to prohibit or restrict foreign municipal solid waste and to urge the Environmental Protection Agency to ensure full compliance with the transboundary hazardous waste agreement with Canada.
Whereas, Michigan has long been frustrated in efforts to regulate solid and hazardous wastes imported into our state. Our state is especially concerned about waste that is brought here from Ontario. Our citizens feel strongly that our environment should not be placed at additional risk from municipal solid waste and other materials that are generated elsewhere and transported here for disposal; and
Whereas, The volume of waste that comes into Michigan each year represents a significant portion of all trash handled here. As much as 20 percent of all solid waste in Michigan is from out of state, and the amount has increased significantly in recent years; and
Whereas, The authority to regulate the transportation and disposal of solid waste has been determined by the courts to be a federal matter under the interstate commerce clause of the United States Constitution. Congress must take actions to provide states with the tools to regulate or prohibit the importation of trash. Congress has before it now a bill that would provide the appropriate authority to the states. Under H.R. 1927, states could prohibit or impose certain limitations on the receipt of foreign municipal solid waste; and
Whereas, Hazardous waste transported between Canada and the United States is provided for in the Agreement Between the Government of Canada and the Government of the United States Concerning the Transboundary Movement of Hazardous Waste. It has been reported, however, that the notification requirements and procedures set forth in the agreement have not been followed. It is most disturbing to think that the protections provided in the agreement between our nations are not working. The people of this state have every right to know that all prudent measures are being enforced to protect our citizens and environment; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we memorialize the Congress of the United States to enact legislation to authorize states to prohibit or restrict foreign municipal solid waste and to urge the Environmental Protection Agency to ensure full compliance with the Agreement Between the Government of Canada and the Government of the United States Concerning the Transboundary Movement of Hazardous Waste; and be it further
Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the President of the United States Senate, the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, the members of the Michigan congressional delegation, and the Environmental Protection Agency.
The resolution was referred to the Committee on Land Use and Environment.
