Steve Bieda, from the 25th District, offered the following invocation: “I would like to offer today’s invocation in honor of my uncle, Jack Simmons, whose funeral was held one year ago today. O God of time and eternity, help this legislature look to the past with gratitude and to the future with hope. We remember this day those who have gone before us here, who labored not for themselves alone, but with a vision of building for the future a world better than they had known. Inspire in us also a like vision, that we too may labor for things beyond ourselves and that our lives may be dedicated to high purposes and grand horizons. Make us unafraid of hopes and dreams; release us from cynicism and despair. Teach us to be realistic about our limitations but never to lose hope in our potential to transcend them. Help us realize the significance of these moments together, that they may open our eyes to the blessings of the past and the promise of the future. Grant us courage for today and tomorrow. Amen.” ______ Rep. Emmons moved that Rep. Palmer be excused from today’s session. The motion prevailed. Motions and Resolutions The Speaker, on behalf of the entire membership of the House of Representatives, offered the following resolution: House Resolution No. 183. A resolution of tribute offered as a memorial for Ted Wallace, former member of the House of Representatives. Whereas, His many friends in the Capitol and throughout Michigan were saddened to learn of the untimely passing of Ted Wallace, who served this state and country in a wide range of responsibilities over the course of his life. Highly respected as a judge with the 36th District Court in Detroit at the time of his passing, this warm and talented gentleman exerted an impact that will long be felt; and Whereas, A graduate of Wright State University and the University of Michigan Law School, Ted Wallace was a veteran of service to his country with the Navy during the Vietnam War. This commitment to the service of others was to mark every aspect of his public life. In addition to his distinguished efforts as an attorney, he also worked in a variety of positions within the auto industry and became a leader in numerous community groups; and Whereas, In 1988, Ted Wallace brought his energies and experiences to Lansing following a special election. For the next 10 years, he served as a trusted voice within the House of Representatives. His legislative career was marked by his effectiveness in many issue areas and responsibilities, including his work on the Appropriations Committee during the shared-power legislature of 1993-94 and his service as chair of the Judiciary Committee in his last term. Since his retirement from lawmaking, Ted Wallace devoted himself to making the law a positive presence in people’s lives through his service as judge of the 36th District Court; now, therefore, be it Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we offer this expression of our highest tribute to honor the memory of Ted Wallace, a member of this legislative body from 1988 to 1998; and be it further Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the Wallace family as evidence of our lasting esteem for his memory. The question being on the adoption of the resolution, The resolution was adopted by unanimous standing vote. Reports of Standing Committees The Committee on Appropriations, by Rep.

  • Template for Writ (00169424).DOC
    Across the Line Published in the Washoe County Bar Association’s The Writ By: Jim Porter of Porter Simon NEW CALIFORNIA LAWS FOR 2011 The California Legislators are a prolific law making machine. This year they approved close to 1,000 bills, but only 725 were signed by (former) Governor Arnie. Here is a sampling in no particular order. Unless otherwise noted, these bills took effect January 1, 2011. Sports Betting Pools Existing law makes it a misdemeanor to form a betting pool or place a bet on the outcome of any contest, like a sporting event. AB 58 makes it a mere infraction to participate in a betting pool, as long as there is no more than $2500 at stake. Hand Gun Ammunition—Thumbprints This controversial law will be challenged in the courts and will be featured in a future column. Commencing February 1, 2011, under AB 962, sellers of hand gun (pistol) ammunition must obtain a thumbprint and all sorts of personal information from anyone purchasing ammo—with very few exceptions. I did not see an exemption for .22 cartridges. Sales of pistol ammunition may only be done in a face-to-face transaction with proof of identification. (Key provisions of the law were found unconstitutionally vague by a Fresno County Superior Court.) Poaching Fines The illegal poaching of fish and wildlife is rampant in California, and yet judges are notoriously lenient when imposing fines. AB 708 will establish mandatory minimum fines with resultant increased revenue to local prosecutors to go after egregious poaching. It’s about time.

    AP PHOTO/DAVID GOLDMAN PHOTO/DAVID AP Right of Reagan How the Extremism of Today’s Republican Presidential Candidates Sets Them Apart from Their Conservative Idol By Charles Posner, Molly Cain, and Anna Chu September 2015 WWW.AMERICANPROGRESSACTION.ORG Right of Reagan How the Extremism of Today’s Republican Presidential Candidates Sets Them Apart from Their Conservative Idol By Charles Posner, Molly Cain, and Anna Chu September 2015 Contents 1 Introduction and summary 6 Provided a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants 8 Stood up to the NRA to establish background checks 10 Signed a multilateral international treaty to reduce pollution 12 Negotiated to reduce nuclear proliferation 14 Grew the federal government 16 Closed tax loopholes favoring the wealthy and raised taxes 18 Conclusion 20 Endnotes Introduction and summary On September 16, the Republican presidential candidates will gather at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, California, for the second debate in the 2016 Republican primary process. It will be an opportunity for the candidates to pay homage to President Reagan, who to this day remains an idol and a paragon of conservatism to Republicans even though he left the Oval Office in 1989—nearly three decades ago. A 2012 Gallup poll showed that 90 percent of Republicans viewed Reagan as an outstanding or above average president, more favorably than any other recent president.1 And this year, 30 Republican governors signed procla- mations recognizing February 6 as Ronald Reagan Day.2 As presidential historian Douglas Brinkley explained, Reagan has “become a folklore president.”3 Clearly, part of the Reagan mystique is tied to the fact that he found a way to achieve something elusive to subsequent conservatives on the national stage: the ability to appeal to independents and Democrats and win the popular vote in presidential elections.
