"Good and gracious God, we lift up our praises to You and thank You for bringing us together today.

We pray for harmony in our community, in our state, in our country, and around the world. We pray that You may grant us wisdom, courage, and insight to the leader of our nation and state as we work towards Your will.

As we come together, let us show our respect for one another and treat one another as You have taught us. Lord, let our mission be to serve You.

Also Lord, let us remember all those who serve in our Armed Forces and those who have sacrificed their lives for us. May we never forget the cost of freedom. Let us pray that any sacrifice truly leads to a more peaceful world.

As we assemble today, we look forward to doing Your work and through that, the people's work. And Lord, we pray that You bless us with Your never ending love and grace. In Your name, we pray. Amen."

House Resolution No. 281.

A resolution designating the week of June 19-26, 2004, as Michigan Jaycee Week.

Whereas, The Michigan Junior Chamber of Commerce (Michigan Jaycees) has played a vital role in the development of young leaders in our state since 1925. No where has the spirit of voluntarism shone more brightly than among the members of the Michigan Jaycees and its affiliated local organizations; and

Whereas, The Michigan Jaycees have actively involved themselves in the life of our communities by providing leadership, rendering services, and helping thousands of Michigan citizens through a variety of endeavors. Their noteworthy contributions include such humanitarian projects as assistance to the elderly, fundraising for the disadvantaged, support for the Junior Family AIDS Network, and countless other efforts to address community needs; and

Whereas, The Michigan Jaycees, in their 80^th year and under the leadership of Saginaw's own Timothy T. Royle, continue to provide leadership training for people of all backgrounds and cultures. Currently numbering more than 3,600 members in more than 90 chapters throughout our state, the desire, determination, dedication, and pride of this organization may be found in its brief 65-word creed, "We believe, That Faith in God gives meaning and purpose to human life; That the brotherhood of man transcends the sovereignty of nations; That economic justice can best be won by free men through free enterprise; That government should be of laws rather than of men; That earth's great treasure lies in human personality; And that service to humanity is the best work of life!"; and

Whereas, The Michigan Jaycees and its affiliated local organizations have set aside the fourth week in June to observe the founding of the organization; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body designate June 19-26, 2004, as Michigan Jaycee Week.

House Resolution No. 282.

A resolution recognizing June 16, 2004, as VSA Day 2004 in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, We are proud to recognize VSA arts of Michigan as they celebrate VSA at the Capitol Day 2004; and

Whereas, VSA arts of Michigan was founded in 1974 by Jean Kennedy Smith and is affiliated with the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C.; and

Whereas, VSA arts of Michigan's mission is to promote creative power in people with disabilities; and

Whereas, VSA arts of Michigan's goal is to provide access and opportunity in the arts to people with disabilities in an effort to increase public awareness, use arts to encourage positive interactions between persons with and without disabilities, and increase the opportunities for people with disabilities to pursue a career in the arts; and

Whereas, VSA arts of Michigan has ten district and local organization locations and reaches over 50,000 Michigan residents annually; and

Whereas, These children, students, and adults are impacted through the efforts of over 150 regular volunteers and more then 2,000 intermittent volunteers; and

Whereas, This program came to Michigan in 1977; and

Whereas, VSA arts of Michigan's activities include exhibitions of student artwork, individual classroom workshops, student scholarships, and their annual VSA at the Capitol Day; now, therefore be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body hereby recognize June 16, 2004, as VSA Day in the state of Michigan.

Pending the reference of the resolution to a committee,

Rep. Richardville moved that Rule 77 be suspended and the resolution be considered at this time.

House Resolution No. 283.

A resolution congratulating the members and coaches of the Detroit Pistons upon the occasion of its 2004 NBA Championship.

Whereas, It is a pleasure to join with their fans, families, and all of Detroit in celebrating the achievements of the Detroit Pistons on its wonderful success over the season. With the fine record this team attained, which has culminated in an NBA Championship, this group of athletes has generated great pride throughout this state; and

Whereas, Much to the delight of their loyal fans, the Pistons have also earned the respect of professional basketball followers elsewhere in the country through their talent, teamwork, and determination. As opponents have found out all season long, this is a team that brings unity and a positive outlook to all levels of competition. In the face of challenge and pressure, this is a group of athletes who maintain their focus on making their dreams come true and accepting nothing less than their best effort; and

Whereas, It is with special pleasure we thank the General Manager, Mr. Joe Dumars, member of the back-to-back champion Detroit Pistons "Bad Boys" Team. Mr. Dumars had the vision and insight to create the 2004 Detroit Pistons Championship Team; and

Whereas, Winning titles or compiling outstanding seasons is never a fluke. While anything can happen in a single game, all teams show their true abilities and dedication over a long season or a difficult tournament. What distinguishes the best, however, is usually the effort that appears in practice, far removed from the excitement of game day. We admire the efforts, team spirit, and preparation of these talented athletes; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body congratulate the members and coaches of the Detroit Pistons upon the occasion of its 2004 NBA Championship. Clearly the Detroit Pistons understand the rewards of teamwork. The Detroit Pistons exemplify the meaning of "Kujichagulia," the second principle of Kwanza which means self-determination; and be it further

Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to the Detroit Pistons as a token of our esteem.

Pending the reference of the resolution to a committee,

Rep. Richardville 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.

Rep. Nofs offered the following concurrent resolution:

House Concurrent Resolution No. 63.

A concurrent resolution to increase the total project cost of the Roll Building Renovation project at Kellogg Community College.

Whereas, The Roll Building Renovation project at Kellogg Community College project was authorized in 2003 PA 237 with a total project cost of $4,500,000; and

Whereas, Kellogg Community College has estimated that the total cost to complete the Roll Building Renovation project has increased to $5,000,000; and
