No. 1] [January 8, 2014] JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE 3 Messages from the Senate January 8, 2014 The Honorable Jase Bolger Speaker of the House of Representatives Capitol Building Lansing, Michigan 48913 Dear Mr. Speaker: By direction of the Senate, I hereby notify you that a quorum of the Senate has assembled and is ready to proceed with the business of the session. Very respectfully, Carol Morey Viventi, J.D. Secretary of the Senate By unanimous consent the House returned to the order of Motions and Resolutions Reps. Somerville, Barnett, Brown and Roberts offered the following resolution: House Resolution No. 284. A resolution to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the North American International Auto Show and to declare January 2014 as North American International Auto Show Month in the state of Michigan. Whereas, Detroit is a city that rose to greatness on the back of automobile manufacturing, becoming one of the world’s great industrial centers and a shining example of American ingenuity and innovation; and Whereas, The “Motor City” powered an economic and social revolution in the United States, its industrial advances and mighty Detroit muscle pushing America into modernity and changing the very culture of the nation; and Whereas, The history and fortunes of Detroit are forever intertwined with the history and fortunes of the automotive industry and no symbol captures the spirit and soul of the city more than an American-made automobile; and Whereas, In order to celebrate Detroit’s economic and cultural connection to the automobile industry, the Detroit Auto Dealers Association has played host to an auto show nearly every year since 1907; and Whereas, While the original Detroit Auto Show was a regional affair that focused solely on domestic automobiles, an innovative and visionary group within the Detroit Auto Dealers Association sought to change the nature of the event in the 1980s, seeking to bring European and Asian manufacturers to the show, thereby making it a truly world-class event; and Whereas, The vision of the Detroit Auto Dealers Association was achieved in 1989, when the newly-named North American International Auto Show became a reality in the Motor City; and Whereas, Since that time, the dedication and hard work of the Detroit-area auto dealers who have served on the event’s organizing committee have allowed the North American International Auto Show to become one of the premier auto shows in the world, having featured more than 200 exhibitors, drawn more than 18 million attendees, and hosted more than 1,300 auto mobile debuts; and Whereas, The North American International Auto Show not only captures the imagination and spirit of Detroit, but it also gives back to its hometown, providing more than $90 million to Detroit-area charities, including $47 million in the past decade alone; and Whereas, Thanks to the generosity of those affiliated with the automotive industry, the North American International Auto Show Charity Preview has become the largest single night fundraiser in the world; and Whereas, Over the past 25 years, the North American International Auto Show has had an economic impact of nearly $10 billion in the southeastern Michigan region; and Whereas, The people of the state of Michigan owe a great deal to the automotive industry, as it has long been the economic engine of our state; now, therefore, be it Resolved by the House of Representatives, That that the members of this legislative body commemorate the 25th anniver- sary of the North American International Auto Show and declare January 2014 as North American International Auto Show Month in the state of Michigan. We encourage all Michiganders to celebrate the anniversary of the North American International Auto Show and to appreciate the ingenuity, innovation, and generosity of the industry that has shaped our great state; and be it further Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the North American International Auto Show and the Detroit Auto Dealers Association. The question being on the adoption of the resolution, The resolution was adopted. 4 JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE [January 8, 2014] [No. 1 Reps.

    Smarter on Crime, Better for Communities

    SMARTER on crime BETTER for communities Senate Majority Leader Mike Shirkey and Speaker Lee Chatfield are joined today by a bipartisan group of seventeen Michigan Senators and Representatives sponsoring bills based on recommendations from the Michigan Joint Task Force on Jail and Pretrial Incarceration. The package aims to focus jail use and related taxpayer costs and collateral consequences on cases that involve a danger to the public. The bills address decision points throughout the justice system that contribute to Michigan’s county jail populations, balancing the goals of protecting the public and safeguarding the rights of all people. The Task Force found that Michigan’s jail population had tripled in just 35 years, that most admissions were for misdemeanors and low-level offenses, and that changes to state law could safely reduce jail populations, protect and support crime victims, and prioritize law enforcement and judicial resources for immediate threats to public safety. The bills in this package: ▶▶Eliminate driver’s license suspension ▶▶Prioritize alternatives to jail when as a penalty for offenses unrelated sentencing people for low-level to dangerous driving. offenses. Driving with a suspended license was the While most people pass through jail quickly, third most common reason for jail admission those who stay longer than a month take in Michigan. Driver’s licenses can be up the majority of jail bed space and are suspended for a wide variety of offenses, often serving a criminal sentence. Unless even violations unrelated to driving. In 2018, necessary, low-level offenses should be nearly 358,000 licenses were suspended for sentenced to jail alternatives, and many failure to appear in court or failure to pay mandatory minimum jail sentences should court fines and fees.

    The Dismantling of an Urban School System: Detroit, 1980-2014

    The Dismantling of an Urban School System: Detroit, 1980-2014 by Leanne Kang A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Educational Studies) in the University of Michigan 2015 Doctoral Committee: Professor Jeffrey E. Mirel, Co-Chair Associate Professor Robert B. Bain, Co-Chair Professor Vincent L. Hutchings Associate Professor Vilma M. Mesa Assistant Professor Angeline Spain © Leanne Kang 2015 DEDICATION To my former students. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This dissertation was possible due in large part to my adviser, Jeffrey Mirel and his seminal study of the Detroit Public Schools (1907-81). Inspired by The Rise and Fall of an Urban School System—which I title my dissertation after—I decided early in my graduate work to investigate what happened to Detroit’s school system after 1980. Thanks to Jeff’s mentorship, I quickly found a research topic that was deeply meaningful and interesting to the very end. He and his wife, Barbara Mirel, are also patrons of my husband’s music. Jeff was the adviser every graduate student hopes to have. The completion of this dissertation would not have been possible without Bob Bain courageously jumping into the middle of a project. I was so fortunate; Bob is one of the smartest people I have ever met. He modeled a way of thinking that I will take with me for the rest of my career. His feedback on every draft was incredibly insightful—sometimes groundbreaking— helping me see where to go next in the jungle of data and theory. And always, Bob believed in me and this project.
