ADVOCACY REPORT

2011-2012

January 2013

Dear LWVMI Member:

This report highlights the advocacy activities of the League of Women Voters of during the 2011-2012 legislative session. Thanks to the hard work of the LWVMI Advocacy Committee and Board of Directors who made this possible.

The League of Women Voters is a non-partisan political organization. We do not support or oppose political parties or candidates. The League does:  Encourage informed and active participation in government  Work to increase understanding of major public policy issues, and  Influence public policy through education and advocacy.

The League of Women Voters has two arms. One is an educational, tax-exempt organization that provides information on candidates and issues to voters as well as information about election and government to citizens. The other is the advocacy arm. While the League does not support or oppose candidates or parties, we do take positions on issues we have studied.

The members of the League of Women Voters of Michigan have adopted positions on seventeen state governmental issues. The League uses these positions, as well as those adopted at the national League to take action at the state level. LWVMI and LWVUS positions are listed on each website. A list of legislation that LWVMI has taken positions on during the two-year legislative session is in this document, as well as the voting records for the MI Senators and Representatives on legislation LWVMI opposed or supported.

We are passionate advocates – women and men-who work to influence public policy on these issues by testifying at legislative committee meetings, meeting with individual legislators and other state officials, and urging League members to contact their legislators. For more information about how to take action in the league, please see the handout “Take Action in the League” in the member resource section of our web site www.lwvmi.org.

Sincerely,

Susan K Smith President

HIGHLIGHTS OF LWVMI ADVOCACY IN 2011-2012

The LWVUS Board established the following as Legislative Priorities for 2012: 1) Voter Protection, 2) Campaign Finance Reform, 3) Environmental Defense and 4) Health Care Defense.

In addition, these items were included on the LWVUS Watch List (Items on the Watch List will be acted upon if the opportunity arises for League action, it does not interfere with action on an LWVUS priority and it appears the LWVUS can make an impact). 1) Fair Taxation, 2) CEDAW (Convention for the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women), 3) UN Support and Immigration. Items on the Watch List will be acted upon if the opportunity arises for League action, it does not interfere with action on an LWVUS Priority and it appears the LWVUS can make an impact.

The LWVMI Board of Directors established the following advocacy priorities: 1) LWVUS priorities; 2) LWVMI strategic plan priorities - campaign finance reform law, election law, judicial selection; 3) Member interest priorities- natural resources, pay equity and public school finance; and 4) When needed LWVMI will make appropriate shifts in priorities

During the two years LWVMI’s Advocacy Committee met to review legislation and requests from LWV members or local leagues and recommended action on legislation to the LWVMI Board of Directors. Then based on what happened to legislation, LWVMI sent letters regarding our positions, attended hearings, gave testimony, issued action alerts and reported on our issues.

The League of Women Voters of Michigan took positions on 77 issues during the 2011-2012 Michigan Legislative session. LWVMI took positions on 24 House Bills of which 11 LWV supported, 13 LWV opposed and 5 became laws (LWVMI supported 4; opposed 1) and 2 were vetoed (LWVMI opposed both); on 42 Senate Bills of which 12 LWV supported, 30 LWV opposed, 22 became law (LWV supported 4; opposed 18) and 5 were vetoed (LWVMI opposed 5, but 2 of these bills later became law). A list of the legislation is in Appendix 1.

In the 2011-2012 legislative session, 2095 bills were introduced in the MI House of Representatives and 1387 bills were introduced in the ; 323 bills were signed into law in 2011, 2 were vetoed and 625 bills were signed into law in 2012, 7 were vetoed. The Legislature enrolled 289 bills in the period after the general election and when they left on December 13, lame-duck session. That is the most bills since 2004. In 2011, the Michigan senators cast 844 roll call votes in 101 session days; and the representatives cast 619 votes in 104 session days. In 2012, the Michigan senators cast 1,095 roll call votes during the 82 session days in session; and the representatives cast 913 roll call votes during the 85 session days.

Some of the accomplishments for Governor Snyder and the MI House of Representatives and Senate were to end the Michigan business tax and replace it with the corporate income tax with less revenue, to raise personal income taxes including changes in pension taxes and the reduction of the earned income tax credit, and to pass right to work, emergency manager law, and personal property tax legislation.

The following areas highlight LWVMI’s advocacy in 2011 and 2012.

GOVERNMENT Redistricting For the State Legislature and US House of Representatives: LWVMI supports the formation of an independent redistricting commission in lieu of the legislature as the primary redistricting body. Such a commission should afford equal representation to the major parties and provide for independent and diverse representation. This commission should be established through legislation and/or a constitutional amendment.

Early in 2011, LWVMI testified at MI House and Senate committees about LWVMI’s position on redistricting. Legislation was passed and signed into law on August 24, 2011, PA 129 of 2011.

Election Laws: LWVMI supports uniform ease and accessibility of voting with assurances of accuracy, security and voter privacy; fair and uniform party regulation; open primaries and a regional presidential primary; local officials having primary authority for elections, the principles of initiative, referendum and recall.

On February 9, 2011, HB 4214 was introduced to establish a new program of emergency managers for units of government near bankruptcy. The bill was signed into law, PA 4 of 2011, on March 17, 2011 and took immediate effect. Groups immediately began efforts to place PA 4 before the voters for a referendum. Enough signatures were gathered and Proposal 12:1 failed that would make Public Act 4 the law. LWVMI was opposed to the provisions in PA 4 that took away the responsibilities of locally elected officials. However, during lame-duck the Legislature passed and Governor signed PA 436 of 2012 that gives four choices to communities facing financial difficulties including using an emergency manager. The law cannot face a referendum because it includes an appropriation.

On October 12, 2012, Secretary of State Ruth Johnson and Republicans introduced a package of legislation in the House and Senate, SB 750-754 and HB 5058-5063. LWVMI supported the bills limiting the use of campaign funds, providing continuing education for county clerks and allowing poll workers from anywhere in the state. LWVMI opposed passage of the Secretary of State’s proposals to require a photo ID for an absentee ballot, to require registrar training and certification to do voter registration and to declare citizenship when voting. In July 2012, Governor Snyder vetoed HB 5061, SB 754, and SB 803 containing these provisions.

In spite of the veto, Secretary of State Johnson continued to use a form declaring citizenship that was used by some clerks in the 2012 Presidential Primary and the August Primary. On October 5, 2012, U.S. District Court Judge Paul Borman ruled that the citizenship question could not be on the ballot in November. The injunction came in a case brought by the American Civil Liberties Union, the

4

Service Employees International Union, Ingham County Clerk Mike Bryanton and others. LWVMI also opposed this requirement. Secretary of State Ruth Johnson asked local clerks not to use the forms with the citizenship question.

In lame-duck session the House and Senate substituted SB 810 to include changes in election dates, added language allowing the Secretary of State to affirmation of citizenship language and photo identification for an absentee ballot. The Governor signed SB 810, Public Act 523 with the effective date of 3/28/13, containing provisions from the some of the bills (HB 5061 & SB 803) he had earlier vetoed. LWVMI opposed SB 810 as substituted and sent a letter to the Governor.

In addition, the Governor signed two bills, PA 417 and PA 418 of 2012 that will make it more difficult to recall elected officials. LWVMI continues to work with the Michigan Election Coalition to assure fair and equitable election laws.

Results of the MI election in November 2012 were: the MI House changed to 59 Republicans and 51 Democrats from 64 to 46 Democrats (the worst loss for House GOP incumbents since 1986), 24 women, 86 men. President Obama (D) (53.8% to 45.3%) won the state as well as Senator Debbie Stabenow (D) (58.3% to 38.4%) and 9 Republicans and 5 Democrats for the U.S. House of Representatives. All 6 statewide ballot proposals failed.

Campaign Finance: LWVUS supports methods of financing political campaigns to ensure the public’s right to know, combat corruption and undue influence.

LWVMI supported passage of HB 5058 to limit the use of campaign funds. The bills passed in July 2012, PA 275 of 2012. LWVMI also publicized the reports of the Michigan Campaign Finance Network.

Judicial Selection: LWVMI supports nonpartisan merit appointment and the subsequent retention election of appellate judges; nonpartisan election of judges for local courts; public funding for judicial election campaigns.

After a year-long study, the Michigan Judicial Selection Task Force in April 2012 released its report and recommendations for improving the state’s process for selecting Supreme Court justices. The task force called for more transparency, less partisanship and a better informed electorate as elements of an improved Supreme Court selection process. The report is available at http://www.mi-judicialselection.com. Printed copies are available on request through the League of Women Voters of Michigan. LWVMI continues to work with the Michigan Campaign Finance Network and others to implement the recommendations.

Intergovernmental Relations Within Michigan: LWVMI supports measures to allow flexibility in solving regional problems and to encourage orderly growth and efficient government. Such measures should include cooperation, coordination and long-range planning.

In December 2012, the began moving legislation to establish the Southeast Michigan Transit Authority. LWVMI supported the legislation. The bills passed and Governor Snyder signed bills, PA 387-391 of 2012. The League of Women Voters supported passage of the package to allow a county and the three largest contiguous counties to create a regional transit authority with a 10-member board. The bills create the "Southeast Michigan Regional Transit Authority Act" to coordinate public transit within a region consisting of Macomb, Oakland, Washtenaw, and Wayne counties.

5

Taxation and Budgeting: LWVMI supports a state-local tax structure that is adequate, equitable, flexible and moderately progressive. LWVMI opposed Ballot Proposal 12:5 that opposed requiring a 2/3 vote by the legislature or a vote of the people to raise taxes. The ballot proposal was defeated in the November 2012 election.

The legislature passed SB 1065-1072 to eliminate the personal property tax (PPT) on industrial property without full replacement of revenues impacting local governments and schools. Governor Snyder signed the legislation, PA 397-403 of 2012. The bills require a vote of the people regarding its implementation regarding the use tax. If the voters reject the PPT proposal the current law remains in effect. The vote will be on the August 2014 ballot. LWVMI opposed the legislation because 100% of the lost revenue was not replaced.

Citizen Rights: LWVUS affirms the constitutional right of privacy of the individual to make reproductive choices.

In 2012, HB 5711-13 were introduced to establish more restrictions for abortions in Michigan. HB 5711 passed the House and Senate and was signed by the Governor, PA 499 of 2012 with immediate effect. HB 5711 will establish facility requirements, mandate certain conversations about coercion, and regulate medical waste. LWVMI opposed the legislation and participated in rallies opposing the legislation as well sending letters to elected officials and attending committee hearings. The law is not subject to a referendum because an appropriation was added.

In 2012, Governor Snyder and the Legislature decided to work on massive changes in Blue Cross/Blue Shield legislation in Senate Bills 1293 and 1294. The Senate passed SB 1293 and SB 1294 (33-4) and the House substituted the bills with provisions banning insurance coverage for abortion unless there was a separate rider purchased that had been part of SB 612-614. LWVMI opposed the changes. The BC/BS bills passed and Governor Snyder vetoed them. This legislation is likely to be re-introduced in 2013.

In December 2012, the Senate passed SB 975 that allowed health care professional and facilities to not provide medical services, education or health coverage based on moral or conscientious objection. LWVMI opposed its passage. The bill died in the House Health Policy Committee and is likely to be re-introduced next year.

NATURAL RESOURCES Great Lakes Ecosystem: LWVMI supports preserving and enhancing the environmental integrity of the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence River ecosystem. A priority is the attainment and maintenance of high water quality standards throughout the Basin with emphasis on conservation and pollution prevention. Decision-making should include public education and input, and inter-governmental participation and planning.

LWVMI worked with the Lake Michigan League of Women Voters to oppose authorization of the SS Badger on Lake Michigan because of pollution issues with the coal-burning ship.

6

Land Use: LWVMI, recognizing that land is a finite resource, not just a commodity, believes that land ownership (whether public or private) implies responsibilities of stewardship.

LWVMI opposed PA 108-113 of 2011 to change liability for storage tanks. LWVMI also opposed PA 240 of 2012 to change the land cap and PA 297 of 2012 to allow building on sand dunes.

Resource Management: LWVUS believes consumption of nonrenewable resources should be minimized.

LWVMI supported for passage of Proposal 12-3, the 2012 ballot proposal to amend the state constitution to establish a standard for renewable energy with our coalition partners. The proposal failed. LWVMI testified to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission about concerns about the nuclear plant in western Michigan.

Air Quality: LWVUS supports the preservation of the physical, chemical and biological integrity of the ecosystem and maximum protection of public health and the environment.

LWVMI worked with the Congressional delegation and others on strengthening not weakening the Clean Air Act. LWVMI continues to be part of numerous environmental coalitions including the Michigan Environmental Council.

SOCIAL POLICY Education: Structure, Financing and Goals: LWVMI supports a publicly financed public education system in which there is equal opportunity for good education available to all children. State, federal, and local governments should share financial responsibility with the state having the greatest funding responsibility and with some local millage levies. Public funds should not be used for general nonpublic education purposes.

In April 2011, Governor Snyder released his education agenda, “Any time, Any place, Any way, Any pace” public school learning model that includes requiring all public schools to participate in schools of choice, removing cap on charter schools and allowing dual enrollment. Numerous pieces of legislation became law that expand the number of cyber schools, lift the cap on charter schools, change Michigan’s teacher tenure act, change the retirement system for teachers and eliminate the “last in/first out” policy.

Late in 2012, the Michigan Legislature introduced and discussed HB 6004 to establish educational achievement authorities and HB 5923 to expand schools of choice and expand online education. LWVMI opposed HB 6004. Neither bill passed but will probably be re-introduced in 2013.

7

In 2012, Governor Snyder created a panel through the Oxford Foundation to rewrite the school aid finance group. The recommendations include:  Expanding preschool programs to all 2-4 year olds at risk  Restoring $1 Billion cut from K-12 schools in 2012  Consolidating school districts, and  Expanding sales tax to more services on internet sales

The plan is to send a revised draft of the Michigan Public Education Finance Act of 2013 to Governor Snyder for review after Christmas 2012. Governor Snyder may use some or all of the draft in his February budget message in February 2013. Information about the process, draft legislation and background information is available at www.oxfordfoundationmi.com.

LWVMI will continue to review these materials in the new legislative session. LWVMI continues to work with the Council About Parochiaid.

Health Care: LWVMI supports a basic level of quality health care at an affordable cost available to all U.S. residents; equitable distribution of services; efficient and economical delivery of care; a reasonable total national expenditure level for health care.

Throughout 2011 and 2012 the Michigan Legislature worked on SB 693, a bill to establish a health care exchange as part of the Affordable Care Act. LWVMI supported its passage. The bill passed the Senate but not the House. Governor Snyder will now enter a partnership with the federal government instead of establishing the state exchange. LWVMI continues to be part of the Michigan Consumers for Health Care Coalition.

Social Services System: LWVMI supports a system of services which: 1) provide sufficient income assistance to assure decent, adequate standards for food, clothing and shelter for people unable to work, or for whom jobs are not available, or whose earnings are inadequate; 2) establish adequate financial incentives and opportunities for realistic job training and counseling.

The Senate Families, Seniors and Human Services Committee reported SB 904, 905 and HB 5223 which would establish a welfare recipient drug testing program. The applicant would be required to be tested if the case worker asked and anyone testing positive a first time could be referred for treatment and then after that lose benefits. The state could bear a portion of the costs. LWVMI opposed this legislation and sent letters to the Senators prior to the September return. The legislation did not pass.

Prisons in Michigan: LWVMI supports a cost-effective prison system that reduces recidivism, utilizes alternatives to incarceration, reduces emphasis on prison construction, and provides supportive/rehabilitative programs. The Legislature passed and the Governor signed PA 24 of 2012 to provide prisoners with ID cards. LWVMI supported this.

In March 2012 LWVMI joined ACLU of Michigan and others in signing a letter to the Department of Corrections expressing concern about strip searches. The Department of Corrections changed its policy on strip searched.

8

LWVMI and others continued to support legislation to change indigent defense. LWVMI supports state funding of all of the costs of an indigent person’s defense. In November 2012, HB 5804 passed the House but it was never acted upon by the Senate Judiciary Committee. LWVMI sent letters to all House members in support of the legislation and to the Senate Judiciary Committee members. LWVMI continues to meet with the Public Defense Task Force on this issue.

Equal Opportunity: LWVUS supports securing equal opportunities for all.

In April 2011 and 2012 LWVMI participated with numerous women organization for Equal Pay Day at the Capitol. LWVMI supported a package of legislation, SB 340-343 and HB 4611-4614 in the House and Senate to establish pay equity in Michigan. The legislation did not pass.

LWVMI hosted a coalition meeting on Saturday, Sept 22, 2012, for the coalition to work on plans for Equal Pay Day in 2013. Representatives from American Association for University Women, Planned Parenthood, National Council of Jewish Women, LWV, and National Organization for Women attended the meeting. April 9, 2013 will be the 50th anniversary for Equal Pay Day. LWVMI will be a co-sponsor of the event. Conference calls will be held to organize the event.

LWVMI celebrated Women’s Equality Day on August 26, when women were granted the right to vote in 1920.

Gun Control: LWVUS believes that the proliferation of handguns and semiautomatic weapons is a major health and safety threat to its citizens.

LWVMI opposed passage of SB 59 that would allow concealed weapons to be carried in places that currently prohibit them such as schools. The Legislature passed the bill but Governor Snyder vetoed the bill in December 2012.

LWVMI thanks the work of the LWVMI Advocacy Committee and welcomes involvement of other LWVMI members.

Members of the Advocacy Committee for 2011-2012 were:  Suzanne Dixon, Natural Resources  Liz Ennis, Education  Judy Karandjeff, Advocacy Vice President  Kathy Ling, Government  Sue Smith, President  Linda White, Health Care
