Pastor Eric Brown, Associate Pastor of Wyldewood Baptist Church in Lambertville, offered the following invocation:

“Our Gracious, Almighty Father in heaven. We come together today and humble ourselves before You and Your magnificent holiness, awesome power, and always abiding love. In doing so, we acknowledge Your supreme sovereignty over our own individual lives and likewise over the governments of this world. Your inerrant, infallible, perfectly pure Word tells us that it is You Who controls the affairs of men. It is You Who looks at the nations and princes of this world and directs their most noble plans. There is none among us who can direct Your Spirit. There is none in our midst or throughout the globe that has been, or ever will be Your counselor, teaching You the ways of righteousness, knowledge, understanding and judgment. Your way is perfect and for that, we praise and glorify You.

We come before You with a prayer of thanksgiving for the magnificent blessing of living in a land that allows us to freely gather for occasions such as this. Whereas stewards and leaders of this great state each of us can come together to carry out the duties of governing that You have bestowed on each one here without fear of retribution. We praise and thank You for each of Your overseers here today that You have specifically placed to facilitate Your great and glorious plan. Grant to each Your sovereign hand of instruction that it would guide each in the matters of legislation that lay before them. Give liberally the knowledge, understanding, and wisdom that can only come from You as each member seeks to fulfill this colossal responsibility born of true patriotism and love for state and country. Elevate the instruction received to that of knowledge. Deepen then the knowledge into understanding and wisdom. This wisdom from You then leading each one to carry out the precepts and principles found in heeding Your words. May each of us here love You first and foremost with all of our heart and soul and in turn, love our neighbors as ourselves. In doing this great, noble work, may each see that as Your word declares – true liberty is found only in Christ.

Finally, we ask for Your strength and protection against those who would tear down the great principles and pillars upon which our great republic was founded. The foundations of looking to Your Word as truth and looking to Your grace and mercy through Your Son’s great sacrifice as our only hope for peace in this troubled world. Drive away our enemies, confound their ways, and cast them out from before us. On You, and You alone our great God and King may we place our hope and trust.

We thank You for this day that You have created for us. We will rejoice and be glad in it. Thank You for the breath and life that You give to each of us to go about that which You have called us to do. May we take this and every day that You grant us as opportunity to make ourselves and others more pure before You. May our love for You never falter as we continually remember what You have done and will continue to do for us. It is in the precious name of Your Son, Jesus Christ we pray these things, Amen.”

House Resolution No. 168.

A resolution to declare October 2017 as Breast Cancer Awareness Month in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, October has long been recognized across America as Breast Cancer Awareness Month in an effort to raise public awareness about the importance of early detection; and

Whereas, In 2017, it is estimated that among U.S. women, there will be 246,660 new cases of invasive breast cancer and 61,000 new cases of in situ breast cancer along with over 40,000 breast cancer deaths; and

Whereas, In 2017, there are more than 2.8 million women with a history of breast cancer in the U.S. This includes women currently being treated and women who have finished treatment; and

Whereas, According to the Michigan Department of Community Health, breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in Michigan and the most commonly diagnosed cancer in Michigan women; and

Whereas, One in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime; and

Whereas, All women are at risk for breast cancer and the two most important risk factors are being female and getting older; and

Whereas, The five year survival rate among women whose breast cancer has not spread beyond the breast at the time of diagnosis is close to 100 percent; and

Whereas, Since the inception of Breast Cancer Awareness Month in 1985, mammography use across America has doubled and breast cancer death rates have declined; and

Whereas, Efforts to promote increased mammography screening have resulted in the third Friday in October being declared National Mammography Day; and

Whereas, Even with impressive progress, many women do not utilize mammography or other recommended testing methods at regular intervals before physical symptoms can be seen or felt. Breast cancer deaths could decline further if all women age 40 and older received recommended screenings at regular intervals; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare October 2017 as Breast Cancer Awareness Month in the state of Michigan. We urge all Michiganders to use this month as an opportunity to educate themselves about breast cancer and take proactive steps to reduce their risks and get appropriate screenings.

The question being on the adoption of the resolution,

Rep. Crawford moved to substitute (H-1) the resolution as follows:

Substitute for House Resolution No. 168.

A resolution to declare October 2017 as Breast Cancer Awareness Month in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, October has long been recognized across America as Breast Cancer Awareness Month in an effort to raise public awareness about the importance of early detection; and

Whereas, In 2017, it is estimated that among U.S. women, there will be 252,710 new cases of invasive breast cancer and 63,410 new cases of in situ breast cancer along with over 40,000 breast cancer deaths; and

Whereas, In 2017, there are more than 3.1 million women with a history of breast cancer in the U.S. This includes women currently being treated and women who have finished treatment; and

Whereas, According to the Michigan Department of Community Health, breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in Michigan and the most commonly diagnosed cancer in Michigan women; and

Whereas, One in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime; and

Whereas, Everyone is at risk for breast cancer but the two most important risk factors are being female and getting older; and

Whereas, The five year survival rate among women whose breast cancer has not spread beyond the breast at the time of diagnosis is close to 100 percent; and

Whereas, Since the inception of Breast Cancer Awareness Month in 1985, mammography use across America has doubled and breast cancer death rates have declined; and

Whereas, Efforts to promote increased mammography screening have resulted in the third Friday in October being declared National Mammography Day; and

Whereas, Even with impressive progress, many women do not utilize mammography or other recommended testing methods at regular intervals before physical symptoms can be seen or felt. Breast cancer deaths could decline further if all women age 40 and older received recommended screenings at regular intervals; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare October 2017 as Breast Cancer Awareness Month in the state of Michigan. We urge all Michiganders to use this month as an opportunity to educate themselves about breast cancer and take proactive steps to reduce their risks and get appropriate screenings.

The motion prevailed and the substitute (H-1) was adopted, a majority of the members serving voting therefor.

The resolution was adopted.

Reps. LaSata, Hoadley, Calley, Schor, Webber, Rabhi, Neeley, Jones, Brann, Hernandez, Runestad, Iden, Garcia, Sheppard, Hornberger, Bizon, Marino, Inman, Brinks, Canfield, Ellison, Faris, Gay-Dagnogo, Geiss, Green, Greig, Howrylak, Kahle, Kesto, Lasinski, Liberati, Lucido, Maturen, Sabo and Wittenberg offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 169.

A resolution to declare October 7-8, 2017, as Buy Nearby Weekend in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, Buy Nearby is an ongoing, year-round campaign, launched by Michigan Retailers Association to benefit Michigan communities and their retail businesses; and

Whereas, The campaign, now in its fifth year, encourages Michiganders to buy from retail businesses near where they live, work, vacation or visit in Michigan so more shopping dollars stay in our local communities and state economy; and

Whereas, Buy Nearby strives to bring a “Pure Michigan” feeling to shopping and get shoppers committed to buying nearby in Michigan; and

Whereas, Retailing is responsible for 850,000 jobs in Michigan and if shoppers commit to buying nearby in Michigan we can create more local jobs through increased local purchases; and

Whereas, Michigan shoppers would create an additional $9 billion in economic activity and nearly 74,000 new jobs amounting to $2.5 billion in additional wages if everyone practiced Buy Nearby, and

Whereas, Each purchase made when someone buys nearby in Michigan keeps more money within Michigan communities, which improves the vitality of Michigan’s local economies and their quality of life and directly supports our communities, our schools, and our infrastructure; and

Whereas, The year-round Buy Nearby campaign has designated October 7-8, 2017, as “Buy Nearby Weekend,” a two-day observance for all to celebrate local communities and their retail businesses; and

Whereas, Communities and retailers are encouraged to offer special events and other promotions to encourage local shopping and stimulate Michigan’s economy on Buy Nearby Weekend; and

Whereas, Residents are encouraged to go shopping with family and friends and support their communities and local retailers by posting photos and comments on social media; and

Whereas, Buy Nearby Weekend will demonstrate that buying nearby can be fun and rewarding to local communities and consumers; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare October 7-8, 2017, as Buy Nearby Weekend in the state of Michigan; and be it further

Resolved, That the people of the state of Michigan are encouraged to buy nearby on these two days and every day.
