Pastor Gene Pearson of Rush Creek Bible Church of Byron Center offered the following invocation:

Heavenly Father, thank You for today. Today is a unique day. There will never be another day like today in history, and we thank You for it. I pray that You will guide the Senators today as they conduct the business of the Senate. We read in Your word that early in the Bible, human government was formed, and it was established by God. We read also that each authority, each person who is elected is established by God according to Your plan.

Part of Your plan, too, Father, was to send Your Son Jesus Christ to earth, which You did. He was born as a baby. He grew up and He ministered. He ministered truth. He talked about You and Your love. He was crucified, buried, and rose again by Your power, and today You offer us the gift of hope and eternal life through Jesus’ blood.

Father, since Jesus has left this earth and is back with You, You have sent the Holy Spirit, who was given to guide us and lead us in our daily lives, and we thank You for that. As we go through our lives, Lord, we need wisdom. We all need wisdom for the various things we do in life. Your word tells us, “If any of you lack wisdom, you should ask of God, who gives generously to all without finding fault.” Father, today we ask for wisdom for each of the Senators as they go through the business of the day.

Father, as the Senators now approach the summer recess, I pray that You will be with each one. Protect them, Father, as they travel around speaking with the constituents. Give them good health. Give them wisdom as they talk with individuals as they visit the people living in their districts and learn about things that perhaps could be changed or new things that could be done or what is working well. I pray, Lord, that You would guide them.

Then, Father, I pray that You would give each of the Senators a time of refreshment as they are on recess, so that they would come back in the fall ready to conduct the business of this great state that we call home—the great state of Michigan.

We pray this in Jesus’ name. Amen.

The President, Lieutenant Governor Calley, led the members of the Senate in recital of the Pledge of Allegiance.

The motion prevailed.

Senator Richardville’s first statement is as follows:

Good morning to all the members, staff, and guests in the Gallery. We have a special guest this morning. It is a pleasure and honor to have with me here today Mary Sue Coleman, president of the University of Michigan. We’re here to recognize her for her outstanding career in higher education.

She came to the University of Michigan in 2002, and unfortunately for the people of Michigan, her tenure as the 13th president of the university will come to a close at the end of this month. Her list of achievements is far too great to mention. Her presidency has been marked by a strong commitment to diversity, entrepreneurship, sustainability, global opportunities, collaboration, arts, and creativity. She led the university through the most challenging economy since the Great Depression and did so with success, impact, and a measure of grace.

Please join me in congratulating Mary Sue Coleman on her retirement, and thank her for her exceptional service to the University of Michigan as she exemplified both being a leader and the best.

Senator Richardville’s second statement is as follows:

Well, it’s kind of a maize and blue morning, and we have another congratulations for Karen Sue East. It is with a deep appreciation for her singular and lasting contributions to the Legislative Service Bureau and the Michigan Legislature that we honor her upon her retirement.

She came to the Legislative Service Bureau in 1986 as a science research analyst in the Legislative Science office. A proud graduate of the University of Michigan with a master’s degree in public health, she brought with her experience working as a consultant in toxicology and epidemiology and as a regulatory policy analyst in the Washington, D.C., offices of the EPA.

In addition to her impeccable credentials, Karen, not unlike her father, also brought a commitment to educate. To generations of legislators and staff, she provided information that was unfailingly accurate, unbiased, relevant, and timely. Over the course of her 28-year career in Lansing, Karen was essential to the development of landmark legislation, including a few examples: Michigan’s implementation of federal clean air standards, as well as statutes on public health and technology. Her ability to communicate complex concepts with respect for personnel, process, and policy has been exceptional.

In short, her role within the LSB has paralleled her contributions to the Michigan Legislature. Her talents will be missed, even as they will long benefit the institution and so many individuals, many right here in this room. As she brings to a close her exemplary career in advancing the scientific and research resources available to lawmakers and staff, we offer our heartiest congratulations and thanks.

Karen Sue, we will miss you. Thank you for your service to the state of Michigan and to these people.

I just want to bring to the attention of the Senate the hard work of a group of people who don’t always get the recognition that they deserve. We were all here until 1:00 a.m.—a few hours ago—but I strongly suspect that many of the Session Staff had to stay here well after that to prepare us for the remainder of session and to prepare the Journal for the last legislative day. The Journal from yesterday was over 170 pages, and it magically appeared this morning as always. I just wanted us all to take a moment to recognize the Session Staff who work so hard to make the Senate operate as smoothly as they can, while we figure out the various matters before us.

Mr. President, could we give a hand to the Session Staff, both here on the floor and back in their office across the street.

Today seems to be a day when we are sending people off to the next phase in their career, and I am not any different. It is a great pleasure to recognize Justin Huffman for his six months of dedication and commitment to the Michigan State Senate. I am pleased to offer my congratulations to Justin for his exceptional work ethic, as he has worked tirelessly for the constituents of the 25th District and the state of Michigan.

Justin is a recent graduate of Michigan State University, where he studied political science and public policy. He came to my office through the Michigan Government Semester Program. By participating in this program, he was able to take classes on state government and learn firsthand with his internship in my office. There, he did everything from fielding phone calls to case work to researching legislation. He has been an asset to the Michigan Senate and to the constituents of the 25th Senate District.

It is difficult to see him go, but I know that he will be as much of an asset there as he was for my district. Thank you, Justin, for your service, and I wish you the best in every future endeavor.

Senate Resolution No. 163.

A resolution proclaiming July 11, 2014, as Srebrenica Remembrance Day in the state of Michigan and the week of July 11, 2014, as Bosnia and Herzegovina Tribute Week.

Whereas, In 2005, both the United States Senate and the United States House of Representatives passed resolutions acknowledging the genocide that the Serbian forces perpetrated in Srebrenica and all of Bosnia from 1992 to 1995; and

Whereas, Since 2009, both the state of Michigan Senate and House of Representatives have adopted Srebrenica Remembrance Day and Bosnia and Herzegovina Tribute Week resolutions every year; and

Whereas, July 11, 2014, is commemorated as the 19th anniversary of the Srebrenica genocide in which at least 8,372 innocent Bosniak civilians were summarily executed, and 30,000 were expelled from their homes in the worst atrocity in Europe since the Holocaust; and

Whereas, This anniversary, together with this year’s 22nd anniversary since the beginning of the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina, raises awareness of the tragic suffering of the Bosnian people. It also honors and remembers over 100,000 civilians who died as a result of the policies of ethnic cleansing and aggression in Bosnia and Herzegovina during the period of 1992 to 1995; and

Whereas, The Congress of North American Bosniaks (CNAB), the umbrella organization representing Bosniaks in the United States and Canada, requested this resolution; and

Whereas, The state of Michigan recognizes the importance of this event to bring closure for the Bosnian people through justice and truth; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the Senate, That we hereby proclaim July 11, 2014, as Srebrenica Remembrance Day and the week of July 11, 2014, as Bosnia and Herzegovina Tribute Week in the state of Michigan; and be it further

Resolved, That we call upon all citizens to work toward ending the cycle of violence and promoting peaceful coexistence among all.

The question being on concurring in the committee recommendation to give the bill immediate effect,

The recommendation was concurred in, 2/3 of the members serving voting therefor.

The Senate agreed to the title as amended.

The bill was referred to the Secretary for enrollment printing and presentation to the Governor.

Senator Richardville asked and was granted unanimous consent to make a statement and moved that the statement be printed in the Journal.

The motion prevailed.

Senator Richardville’s statement is as follows:

This is AVM Awareness Week, which is arteriovenous malformation. Senate Resolution No. 161 declares July 11-18 as Arteriovenous Malformation, or AVM, Awareness Week. It is a rare condition that affects about 300,000 American citizens and results in an abnormal connection between the arteries and veins which bypass the capillary system in the body. AVMs can appear at any location in the body, affecting mainly the central nervous system and can cause many debilitating sensations, such as difficulty with movement, coordination, and in some cases even paralysis, hemorrhaging, and congestive heart failure.

Here with me today is Dan Gustafson, the brother of Kelleigh Gustafson, a 16-year-old girl originally from Haslett, Michigan, who at the age of 4 was diagnosed with this rare, inoperable, and life-threatening disease known as AVM. She has been integral in founding Kelleigh’s Cause, a not-for-profit organization, in conjunction with the Sparrow Hospital Foundation, which has been instrumental in raising attention and funds to support the research and treatment of AVMs in the state of Michigan.

Kelleigh’s Cause remains steadfast in pursuing the objective to determine a mechanism of AVM progression in the body and to develop the proper tools for testing those who are potentially affected by this disease. Currently, a team of researchers are working as we recognize their efforts to identify a groundbreaking drug therapy to hopefully bring an end to this incurable disease.

Kelleigh’s ongoing pursuit for a cure and her role with Kelleigh’s Cause illustrate her dedication and selflessness toward ending this terrible disease that affects not only her, but, like I mentioned, 300,000 American families throughout the country. Even in her darkest hours, Kelleigh has never given up. She is currently thriving as an honor student who dreams of becoming a doctor and a varsity athlete. Kelleigh refuses to let this disease define her.

It is an honor to present this resolution declaring the week July 11-18, 2014, as AVM Awareness Week in the great state of Michigan. We are fortunate to have Dan, who works here in the Senate, to be able to give this resolution in recognition of his sister’s fight and for the family’s fight as well. Help me in thanking and congratulating Dan and his sister on their courageous fight.

By unanimous consent the Senate proceeded to the order of

(2) The lease, rental, contract, or other legal agreement shall also require the party using the property to make a payment in lieu of taxes to the local jurisdictions that would otherwise receive property tax revenue, as if the property were not owned by the state.

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.
