Motions and Resolutions

 

 

Reps. Hope, Peterson, Manoogian, Bolden, Garza, Lasinski, Sabo and Stone offered the following resolution:

House Resolution No. 213.

A resolution to urge the President and the United States Department of Agriculture to repeal the new work requirements for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program.

Whereas, The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), formerly known as the Food Stamp Program, provides nutrition benefits to low-income families to supplement their food budgets. In Fiscal Year 2019, the program served nearly 34.5 million people across the nation, including almost 1.2 million Michigan residents; and

Whereas, Under federal law, able-bodied adults without dependents, people between the ages of 18 and 49 who are childless and not disabled, can only receive SNAP benefits for 3 months in a 36-month period unless they meet certain work requirements; and

Whereas, New federal rules issued by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) will change SNAP work requirements for able-bodied adults without dependents (84 FR 66782). Previously, states could request to waive the time limit in areas with an unemployment rate over 10 percent or areas lacking in sufficient jobs, and states had a limited number of discretionary exemptions that could be rolled over each year. The new rules limit states’ abilities to waive the time limit and apply stricter standards for what qualifies as an area lacking in sufficient jobs. It also puts a cap on the annual carryover of state discretionary exemptions; and

Whereas, The USDA’s Regulatory Impact Analysis estimates that 688,000 SNAP participants will lose their benefits under the new rules. Nearly 80,000 Michigan residents may become ineligible to participate in SNAP; and

Whereas, The people most impacted by the rule change are among the most vulnerable SNAP participants. It is estimated that 97 percent of individuals impacted live in poverty compared to 80 percent of all SNAP participants. Nearly 90 percent of the people impacted have household incomes at or below 50 percent of the federal poverty level, which is equivalent to only $12,875 for a family of four; and

Whereas, The rule change will be detrimental to the low-income families who rely on SNAP to meet their most basic needs and will create additional barriers to self-sufficiency for individuals in areas already lacking sufficient jobs; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we urge the President of the United States and the United States Department of Agriculture to repeal the new work requirements for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program; and be it further

Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the President of the United States, the United States Secretary of Agriculture, and the Deputy Under Secretary for Food, Nutrition, and Consumer Services.

The resolution was referred to the Committee on Appropriations.

Reps. Howell, Wakeman, Eisen, Green, Rendon, Calley, Pohutsky, Cambensy, Sowerby, Hernandez, Garza, Leutheuser and Sabo offered the following concurrent resolution:

House Concurrent Resolution No. 12.

A concurrent resolution to oppose Canada’s consideration of placing a permanent high-level radioactive waste storage site on the shores of Lake Huron, to urge the United States Congress to take every legal action possible to prevent the construction of any underground high-level nuclear waste repository in the Great Lakes basin, and to urge the Canadian government to prohibit a high-level nuclear waste repository anywhere in the Great Lakes basin.

Whereas, The Canadian Nuclear Waste Management Organization has chosen the township of Huron-Kinloss and the municipality of South Bruce in southern Ontario as one of two finalists for a possible long‑term geological repository to bury and abandon Canada’s radioactive spent nuclear fuel, the most dangerous nuclear waste. This proposed area along the shores of Lake Huron is approximately 120 miles upstream from the main drinking water intakes for southeast Michigan. Indeed, the Great Lakes provide drinking water to 40 million people on both the United States and Canadian borders; and

Whereas, The governments of Canada and the United States, under the 2012 Protocol Amending the Agreement Between Canada and the United States of America on Great Lakes Water Quality, acknowledge the importance of anticipating, preventing, and responding to threats to the waters of the Great Lakes and share a responsibility and an obligation to protect the Great Lakes from contamination from various sources of pollution, including the leakage of nuclear waste from a high-level underground nuclear waste repository; and

Whereas, When the nearby Bruce Nuclear Generation Station was considered previously as a site for Canada’s low- and intermediate-level radioactive nuclear waste, entities representing over 23 million citizens passed numerous resolutions in the states of Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, New York, and Ohio, and in the province of Ontario opposing any nuclear waste repository at the site; and

Whereas, Placing a deep geological repository near the Great Lakes is a high-risk venture with the potential of causing irreparable harm to millions of lives. Underground waste repositories have leaked in the past, costing billions of dollars to repair. Germany, for instance, is spending billions of dollars to dig up low- and intermediate-level radioactive waste that was stored in a salt mine due to leakage and other environmental concerns. In 2014, chemical reactions in a steel barrel full of radioactive waste caused an explosion and fire at a low- and intermediate-level underground waste site in Carlsbad, New Mexico causing a cloud of radioactivity to be released at the surface. Not only did this put the health and safety of the public at risk, it cost taxpayers $2 billion to clean up and repair. As demonstrated, low- and intermediate-level facilities have failed, and this high-level nuclear proposal provides no guarantee, whatsoever, to keep radioactive waste from our environment; and

Whereas, Placing a permanent high-level nuclear waste burial facility within the Great Lakes basin is ill-advised. The potential damage to the Great Lakes from any leak or breach of radioactivity far outweighs any benefits that could be derived from burying high-level radioactive waste at this site. The ecology of the Great Lakes, which is valuable beyond measure to the health and economic well-being of the entire region, should not be placed at risk by storing high-level radioactive waste within the Great Lakes watershed. Canada currently has an inventory of almost 2.9 million used nuclear fuel bundles stored above ground in wet pools and dry containers at the nuclear plant sites where the waste is generated, constituting 128 million pounds of highly radioactive material—a number that is growing; now, therefore, be it

Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), That, in the strongest manner possible, we oppose the Nuclear Waste Management Organization’s consideration of placing a high-level nuclear waste repository on the shores of Lake Huron; and be it further

Resolved, That we urge the United States Congress to take every legal action possible to oppose the construction of any underground high-level nuclear waste repository in the Great Lakes basin; and be it further

Resolved, That we urge the Canadian government to prohibit the siting and construction of a high-level nuclear waste repository anywhere in the Great Lakes basin; and be it further

Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the Prime Minister of Canada, Canada’s Minister of Environment and Climate Change, Canada’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, the Premier of Ontario, the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission, the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency, the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, the President of the United States Senate, the members of the Michigan congressional delegation, and the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

The concurrent resolution was referred to the Committee on Natural Resources and Outdoor Recreation.
