Pastor Wes Morris, Pastor of The Rock Church in Fenton, offered the following invocation:

“Father, we come before You today grateful for the way You faithfully bless, protect and provide for us.

We thank You for the free gift of eternal salvation given to all who will come by faith to the risen Jesus and confess Him as their Lord.

I pray for any men and women here, who may be shackled by the heavy burden of their sin. May You right now Lord, shine the light of the gospel upon all pain, regret, and shame they may carry. May they call upon You to forgive them of sin and save their souls. Bless somebody with a heavy heart Lord Jesus. Pick them up as the scripture has declared, ‘out of the miry clay, and set their feet upon a rock.’

I thank You for these leaders of government sitting here today. We know from Your Word that every one them has been established by Your mighty hand. Give them the conviction to lead us away from sin and in the direction of Your righteousness.

I pray for Your blessing and protection over their marriages, children, and grandchildren. I pray for any who may be battling sickness and disease of any kind. Give them miraculous strength & healing for their bodies Lord Jesus. I ask You to rebuke Satan and all his malicious attacks against these sitting here and their households.

As they continue to govern the state of Michigan, please grant them divine wisdom oh God. I pray for unity among every person here regardless of political affiliation. As the nation & the media increasingly fix their gaze on our state, please protect our leaders. Protect and encourage Governor Snyder, these in this room, and those in local government. Give them strength, insight and a fresh fire in their spirit.

Help the citizens of Michigan, pastors and spiritual leaders like myself to do a better job of holding these men and women up in authentic, fervent prayer.

Today we proclaim with the prophet Daniel:

Let the name of God be blessed forever and ever, for wisdom and power belong to Him. It is He who changes the times and world events. He removes kings and establishes kings. He gives wisdom to wise men and knowledge to men of understanding. It is He who reveals the profound and hidden things. He knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with Him.

I pray for everyone here today, in Jesus name, Amen.”

Motions and Resolutions

Reps. Wittenberg, Singh, Plawecki, Pagan, Sarah Roberts, Greig, Faris, Chirkun, Runestad, Irwin, LaVoy, Hughes, Clemente, Hovey-Wright, Liberati, Maturen, Cochran, Brinks, Rendon, Lauwers, Guerra, Durhal and Kelly offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 226.

A resolution to urge Governor Snyder to uphold Michigan’s commitment to the principles of the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence River Basin Water Resources Compact and to veto the city of Waukesha’s request to divert water from the Great Lakes.

Whereas, The Great Lakes contain more than 18 percent of the world’s, and more than 90 percent of North America’s, fresh surface water and provide drinking water to nearly 6 million Michigan residents; and

Whereas, Michigan and its economy are defined by the Great Lakes and depend on its abundance of freshwater for manufacturing, tourism, fishing, drinking water, agriculture, and numerous other uses. Maintaining a healthy Great Lakes system creates jobs and improves Michigan’s quality of life. It increases tourism and recreational activity, enhances fisheries, reduces costs to municipalities, and raises property values in coastal areas; and

Whereas, The 2008 Great Lakes-St. Lawrence River Basin Water Resources Compact is the first-ever shared management, wise-use regional water conservation strategy to protect the world-class resources of the Great Lakes. The compact provides enforceable legal and environmental standards, approved by all the Great Lakes states and the U.S. Congress, that both provide for regional water needs and protect the Great Lakes; and

Whereas, The compact prohibits water diversions out of the Great Lakes basin, with only limited exceptions for communities bordering the basin. The ban on using Great Lakes water beyond the basin boundary was established, in part, to keep the drought-stricken areas of the country from siphoning off our region’s greatest resource; and

Whereas, The city of Waukesha, Wisconsin, has filed an application with the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources to divert an average of 10.1 million gallons of water per day from Lake Michigan. The city is the first community located outside of the Great Lakes basin but in a county that lies partially within the basin to apply for a diversion under the compact. Such communities can request to use water from the basin but must have approval from all eight Great Lakes governors and meet other conditions; and

Whereas, The city of Waukesha’s proposal fails to meet the principles of the compact. The limited exception for communities bordering the Great Lakes is to meet the current and critical needs of communities with no other drinking water options, not to support extensive future economic growth outside of the basin; and

Whereas, An approval of the request will set a precedent for countless other bordering communities across the region to use Great Lakes water without demonstrating a critical need. At least seven other cities in Wisconsin, Indiana, and Ohio are in the same situation as Waukesha. It is imperative that the state of Michigan demonstrate its commitment to the compact and set a precedent to protect its principles of designed wise-use conservation; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we urge Governor Snyder to uphold Michigan’s commitment to the principles of the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence River Basin Water Resources Compact and to veto the city of Waukesha’s request to divert water from the Great Lakes; and be it further

Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the Office of the Governor.

The resolution was referred to the Committee on Natural Resources.

Reps. Barrett, Faris, Greig, Heise, Hooker, Howrylak, Kelly and Maturen offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 227.

A resolution to recognize the Michigan Air National Guard’s 217th Air Operations Group.

Whereas, The 217th Air Operations Group of the 110th Attack Wing was formed on April 1, 2009, and immediately provided support for its state and nation both at home and abroad; and

Whereas, The citizen airmen of the 217th have served with distinction in Operation Juniper Micron, Operation Odyssey Dawn, Operation United Assistance, Operation Enduring Freedom, the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill Recovery, and numerous training events answering the call for more than 66,700 man-days of active duty service to their community, state, and nation; and

Whereas, The professionalism, diligence, and selfless service evidenced by the citizen airmen of the 217th have earned a reputation for excellence that reflects great credit upon themselves, the Michigan Air National Guard, and the state of Michigan; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body recognize the Michigan Air National Guard’s 217th Air Operations Group. We congratulate the citizen airmen of the 217th on their many achievements and express our gratitude for their continued service to the people of Michigan.

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

The resolution was adopted.

Reports of Standing Committees

The Committee on Energy Policy, by Rep. Nesbitt, Chair, reported

House Resolution No. 220.

A resolution to urge the President and Congress of the United States to abandon President Carter’s April 1977 nuclear power policy and explore and support policies that will lead to the establishment of facilities within the United States for the reprocessing and recycling of spent nuclear fuel.

(For text of resolution, see House Journal No. 13, p. 165.)

With the recommendation that the following substitute (H-1) be adopted and that the resolution then be adopted.

Substitute for House Resolution No. 220.

A resolution to urge the President and Congress of the United States to explore and support policies that will lead to the establishment of facilities within the United States for the reprocessing and recycling of spent nuclear fuel.

Whereas, The federal Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982 called for the United States Department of Energy to begin collecting spent nuclear waste and develop a long-term plan for storage of the material. In 2002, Congress approved Yucca Mountain in Nevada as the location to allow the Department of Energy to establish a safe repository for high-level spent nuclear waste; and

Whereas, In 2010, the Department of Energy halted the project at Yucca Mountain when the construction authorization process was in progress, despite the Nuclear Waste Fund receiving more than $30 billion in revenue from electric customers throughout the United States in order to construct the facility and store the spent fuel; and

Whereas, The Argonne National Laboratory has developed a high-temperature method of recycling spent nuclear waste into fuel, known as pyrochemical processing. This process allows 100 times more of the energy in uranium ore to be used to produce electricity compared to current commercial reactors; and

Whereas, Extending the productive life of uranium ore through pyrochemical processing ensures almost inexhaustible supplies of low-cost uranium resources for the generation of electricity, minimizes the risk that used fuel could be stolen and used to produce weapons, and reduces the amount of nuclear waste and the time it must be isolated by almost 1,000 times; and

Whereas, Advanced non-light water reactors currently under development in the United States and internationally have the potential to utilize used fuel from existing reactors as fuel, but according to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, there are no reprocessing facilities currently operating within the United States; and

Whereas, The federal government’s inability to adequately store or reprocess almost 100,000 tons of spent nuclear fuel has adversely affected the residents of the state of Michigan. Michigan has paid more than $800 million into the Nuclear Waste Fund since 1983, but the federal government has failed to use it to permanently store nuclear waste in a way that serves the public; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we urge the President and Congress of the United States to explore and support policies that will lead to the establishment of facilities within the United States for the reprocessing and recycling of spent nuclear fuel; and be it further

Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the President of the United States, the President of the United States Senate, the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, and the members of the Michigan congressional delegation.
