Motions and Resolutions
Reps. Slavens, Bledsoe, Dillon, Darany, Haugh, McCann, Kandrevas, Hovey-Wright, Bauer, Santana, Jackson, Cavanagh, Liss, Rutledge, Irwin, Brunner, Smiley, Lane, Stanley, Lipton, Oakes, Barnett, Brown, Crawford, Geiss, Heise, Knollenberg, LeBlanc, Poleski, Switalski, Talabi and Tyler offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 283.
A resolution to declare May 2012 as Foster Care Awareness Month in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, There is nothing more precious to Michigan than the healthy growth and development of the young people who will determine the future direction of our state; and
Whereas, The family, serving as the primary source of love, identity, self-esteem, and support, is the very foundation of our communities and our state; and
Whereas, In Michigan, there are more than 13,000 children and youth in the foster care system who are being provided a safe, secure, and stable home environment along with the compassion and nurturing of a foster or relative foster family; and
Whereas, Foster families open their homes and hearts to children whose families are in crisis, thus they play a vital role in helping children and families heal, reconnect, and launch children into successful adulthood; and
Whereas, Dedicated foster families frequently adopt foster children, resulting in a continual need for more foster families; and
Whereas, Foster Care Awareness Month in the state of Michigan is an appropriate opportunity to thank the families who embrace the often thankless responsibility of providing a home and family to children in need of affection, love, and security and to support the efforts of those who dedicate their time to children in and leaving foster care; and
Whereas, The state of Michigan must do more to improve the lives of children in foster care; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare May 2012 as Foster Care Awareness Month in the state of Michigan. We encourage more citizens to volunteer their time to become a mentor to a child that is in foster care and realize that the state of Michigan must do more to improve the lives of children in foster care.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.
Reps. Johnson, Daley, Barnett, Darany, Geiss, Heise, Horn, LeBlanc, Liss, Poleski, Talabi and Tyler offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 284.
A resolution to declare May 31, 2012, as Silo Safety Awareness Day in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, Silos play an important role in the storage of agricultural products, but can pose a significant risk to those who work within them; and
Whereas, Accidents occur in Michigan and throughout the country each year within silos. Many of these tragedies could have been avoided with additional caution and an awareness of safety measures; and
Whereas, Workers within silos must always be conscious of basic silo safety rules. These rules include: ropes or safety harnesses are essential, crusted grain should never be walked on, a silo should never be entered from the bottom when material is collected to the sides of the bin or bridged overhead, tools that are used should not conduct electricity nor create sparks, and other workers should be present to assist and supervise if at all possible; and
Whereas, In memory of those who have been injured or killed while working in silos, it is our intent to help raise awareness about the inherent dangers that are present; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare May 31, 2012, as Silo Safety Awareness Day in the state of Michigan.
The question being on the adoption of the resolution,
The resolution was adopted.

House Resolution No. 285.
A resolution to declare June 9-17, 2012, as Aquatic Invasive Species Awareness Week in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, Michigan and its economy are defined by the Great Lakes and depend on its great abundance of freshwater for manufacturing, tourism, fishing, public water supplies, agriculture, and numerous other uses; and
Whereas, Preventing the introduction of aquatic invasive species ultimately benefits the state of Michigan and stopping the introduction of these species would eliminate the need of the State of Michigan, business, industry, and citizens from employing costly methods to control and manage them; and
Whereas, Michigan has taken the lead in protecting the Great Lakes from aquatic invasive species from a number of pathways including ballast water, canals and waterways, organisms in trade, and recreational activities; and
Whereas, More than 180 non-indigenous aquatic invasive species have been introduced to the Great Lakes, many of which are displacing native species, disrupting habitats, and degrading natural, managed, and agricultural landscapes, requiring millions of dollars for control efforts each year; and
Whereas, Michigan has more than 1 million registered boaters and many other recreational, commercial, and industrial users of more than 11,000 lakes and ponds and over 36,000 miles of streams in the state, many of which are impacted by aquatic invasive species; and
Whereas, Aquatic invasive species awareness is an important first step toward behavior change, which prevents the introduction and spread of aquatic invasive species; and
Whereas, Spring marks the beginning of water-related recreational activities in Michigan; and
Whereas, Aquatic Invasive Species Awareness Week is an opportunity for government to join forces with business, industry, environmental groups, community organizations, and citizens to take action against the introduction and spread of aquatic invasive species; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare June 9-17, 2012, as Aquatic Invasive Species Awareness Week in the state of Michigan; and be it further
Resolved, All citizens must increase their understanding and awareness of aquatic invasive species and their ecological and economic impacts and take preventative measures to stop the spread and introduction of aquatic invasive species; and be it further
Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality, Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, Michigan Department of Natural Resources, Michigan Department of Transportation, Great Lakes Fishery Commission, Council of Great Lakes Governors, Michigan congressional delegation, and the Great Lakes Commission.
The resolution was referred to the Committee on Natural Resources, Tourism, and Outdoor Recreation.

LaFontaine, Foster, Johnson, Jenkins, Hughes, Gilbert, Denby, Shaughnessy, Pettalia, Graves, Muxlow, Forlini, Lund, MacMaster, Wayne Schmidt, Liss, Haugh, Lane, Barnett, Brown, Darany, Geiss, Heise, Horn, Knollenberg, LeBlanc, Poleski, Switalski, Talabi and Tyler offered the following concurrent resolution:
House Concurrent Resolution No. 56.
A concurrent resolution to declare June 9-17, 2012, as Aquatic Invasive Species Awareness Week in the state of Michigan.
Whereas, Michigan and its economy are defined by the Great Lakes and depend on its great abundance of freshwater for manufacturing, tourism, fishing, public water supplies, agriculture, and numerous other uses; and
Whereas, Preventing the introduction of aquatic invasive species ultimately benefits the state of Michigan and stopping the introduction of these species would eliminate the need of the State of Michigan, business, industry, and citizens from employing costly methods to control and manage them; and

“Mr. Speaker and members of the House:
I voted no on Senate Bill 1085 because the bill is an attempt to get around a federal court ruling that struck down the Legislature’s last attempt to ban project labor agreements (PLAs) in state construction projects. The Court found the legislation to be preempted by federal law. Specifically, PLAs are protected and sanctioned by the National Labor Relations Agreement (NLRA). This bill attempts to ban PLAs and will suffer the same fate as the last attempt. Further, PLAs do not prohibit competitive bidding and do not prohibit non-unionized companies from bidding on construction projects. There have been PLA projects with both union and non-union workers. PLAs are voluntary and are only used when the public or private owner determines that using a PLA is in its best interest for particular projects. Both private companies and public entities use PLAs. PLAs help work out difficult terms before a contract is entered into, including wage and safety specifications, benefits, and no-strike or no-lockout clauses. This helps projects get done within the required amount of time with known labor costs and little interruption. Furthermore, I did not support the gaveling on of Immediate Effect to SB 1085 without a roll call vote.”

The department shall regularly evaluate each correctional facility in terms of cost effectiveness and make a determination as to how long each facility should remain open based upon the age of the facility, the costs of its continued operation, and the relative costs of alternative bed space that could be utilized. When it is determined that a facility is no longer cost-effective to operate due to the age of the facility or that the facility has become functionally obsolete, or both, the department should analyze the economic impact of the facility on the surrounding community. If the department determines that the facility is critical to the economic viability of the surrounding community, the department shall work with the Michigan economic development corporation and any other relevant state or local agencies to encourage private sector investment in that community.
Sec. 936. The department shall contract with third-party providers to complete an assessment of energy utilization at each state correctional facility. In particular, the department shall endeavor to identify and implement energy-saving initiatives in the various correctional facilities. By April 1, the department shall provide the members of the senate and house appropriations subcommittees on corrections, the senate and house fiscal agencies, the state budget director, and the legislative corrections ombudsman with a report on these efforts.
Sec. 937. The funds appropriated in part 1 for the cost-effective housing initiative shall be utilized to ensure more cost-effective housing of prisoners. The department shall use this funding to house prisoners in the most cost-effective manner possible. This shall include exploring the use of public-private partnerships, the use of privately owned facilities in Michigan, and the use of state facilities by third-party contractors. The use of cost-effective housing from this initiative shall be used to achieve general prison operations savings budgeted in the inmate housing fund line item. The department shall work cooperatively with the chairpersons of the senate and house appropriations subcommittees on corrections in identifying appropriate reductions to prison facility line items to achieve the budgeted savings in the inmate housing fund line item.
Sec. 939. (1) By January 1, the department shall release a request for proposal seeking competitive bids for the special alternative incarceration facility, the prison stores, the food service operations, and up to 1,750 custody beds.
(2) The department, working with the department of technology, management, and budget, shall issue a quarterly report detailing the current status of any requests for proposal required under this section. If the status of any item listed in the report remains unchanged for more than 2 consecutive reporting periods, the report shall provide an explanation of the delay.
Sec. 940. For the purpose of procuring drug testing services at correctional facilities, the department shall enter into a contract with a Michigan-based company that provides laboratory oral fluid drug testing.
Sec. 941. The department shall ensure that any contract with a public or private party to operate the special alternative incarceration facility at camp Cassidy Lake includes a provision to require that public works program services continue to be provided to the St. Louis Center in Chelsea at rates consistent with the rate structure in place as of May 1, 2011.
Sec. 942. The department shall ensure that any contract with a public or private party to operate a facility to house state prisoners includes a provision to allow access by both the office of the legislative auditor general and the office of the legislative corrections ombudsman to the facility and to appropriate records and documents related to the operation of the facility. These access rights for both offices shall be the same for the contracted facility as for a general state-operated correctional facility.
Sec. 943. It is the intent of the legislature that the department maintains sufficient perimeter security measures at department prison facilities to ensure the safety of communities surrounding those facilities.
Sec. 945. As a condition for expending funds appropriated in part 1, the department shall allow a person acting as a prisoner mentor to continue his or her mentoring relationship with a prisoner as that prisoner transitions back into the community during his or her term of parole unless the department has specific reasons as to why the continuation of the mentoring relationship is not in the best interest of the prisoner’s transition success. The department shall not establish or practice a policy that automatically disqualifies a mentor from continuing an established mentoring relationship during a prisoner’s term of parole.
Sec. 946. As a condition for expending funds appropriated in part 1, the department shall not restrict prisoner access to programming and shall not deny prisoner access to persons qualified to deliver programming because of the faith-based nature of the programming. The department shall establish clear policy guidance regarding the validity of faith-based programming for prisoners who desire that programming and prohibiting discrimination against faith-based programming relative to other types of programming for those prisoners. The policy shall be communicated to all prison wardens and key facility management staff to ensure compliance.
MISCELLANEOUS
Sec. 1009. The department shall create an information packet for the families of incoming prisoners. This packet shall be made available on the department website by February 1, 2013 and shall be updated by February 1 of each year thereafter. The packet shall provide information on topics including, but not limited to: how to put money into prisoner accounts, how to make phone calls or create Jpay email accounts, how to visit in person, proper procedures for filing complaints or grievances, the rights of prisoners to physical and mental health care, how to utilize the offender tracking information system (OTIS), truth-in-sentencing and how it applies to minimum sentences, the parole process, and guidance on the importance of the role of families in the reentry process. The department is encouraged to partner with external advocacy groups and actual families of prisoners in the packet-writing process to ensure that the information is useful and complete.
Sec. 1011. The department shall accept in-kind services and equipment donations to facilitate the addition of a cable network that provides programming that will address the religious needs of incarcerated individuals. This network shall be a cable television network that presently reaches the majority of households in the United States. A bilingual channel affiliated with this network may also be added to department programming to assist the religious needs of Spanish-speaking inmates. The addition of these channels shall be of no additional cost to this state.
