Mark Rutherford, Pastor of Saint Mary Catholic Church in Williamston, offered the following invocation: “O Lord our Heavenly Father, King of kings, and Lord of lords, Who from Your throne behold all of humanity, and reign supreme over all of creation; Look down in mercy, we ask You, on these members of the House of Representatives, who seek Your wisdom and gracious protection, desiring this day to renew their desire to serve this great state of Michigan. To You they appeal for guidance in their efforts; to You they now look for favor and support, which You can give. Take them, therefore, Heavenly Father, under Your nurturing care; give them wisdom in their assembly and valor in the art of governing; convince each one of them today as You did on the first day of their service of the purpose for which they took up service for their fellow citizens; support them to never give up those causes of justice even when they grow tired of the fight. Be present, God of wisdom, and direct the councils of this great assembly; enable them to settle things on the best and surest foundation; that the scene of injustice may be speedily closed; that order, harmony, and peace may be effectively restored where it has been lost; that truth and justice, freedom of religion and speech, prevail and flourish among the people of this great state. Preserve the health of their bodies and the sharpness of their minds; shower down on them and the millions they here represent, all the temporal blessings You see fit for them and all of us in this state, and one day crown each one of them with Your everlasting reward. All this we ask in the name and through the merits of Jesus Christ, Your Son. Amen. (Some parts taken from, and other parts inspired by the First Prayer of the Continental Congress by Reverend Jacob Duche, Anglican pastor, Rector of Christ Church of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, September 7, 1774, 9 AM.)” ______ Rep. Greig moved that Rep. Durhal be excused from today’s session. The motion prevailed. No. 1] [January 10, 2018] JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE 3 Messages from the Senate January 10, 2018 The Honorable Tom Leonard 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 session. Very respectfully, Jeffrey F. Cobb Secretary of the Senate By unanimous consent the House returned to the order of Motions and Resolutions The Speaker, on behalf of the entire membership of the House of Representatives, offered the following resolution: House Resolution No. 217. A resolution of tribute offered in memorial for Martin D. Buth, former member of the House of Representatives. Whereas, The members of this legislative body were saddened to learn of the passing of former Representative Martin D. Buth. A devoted advocate for the communities of Kent County and our state, Mr. Buth was known for his hardworking, bipartisan approach to governing that made him a model of effectiveness and integrity for all public servants; and Whereas, Martin D. Buth came to the House of Representatives an experienced businessman and local leader. A graduate of Michigan State College in 1940, Mr. Buth returned home to join his family’s dairy farm, which he and his brother ran for twenty-five years. His tenure in public office began as a member of the Plainfield Township Board of Trustees in the 1950s and continued as president of the Michigan Purebred Dairy Cattle Association; and Whereas, First elected to the House of Representatives in a 1959 special election, Martin D. Buth went on to craft a prodigious career in the chamber lasting more than twenty-three years. He used the Legislature to advance development and growth in the Grand Rapids region, beginning with his sponsorship of legislation that established Grand Valley State University and securing funding to construct its first building. He championed the creation of a television station to service western Michigan and testified before the Federal Communications Commission on its behalf. For more than five decades, Channel 13 has served the Grand Rapids community. Representative Buth was also instrumental in creating Grand Rapids’ southern beltway, M-6. Among his other legislative interests, his command of the Michigan tax code was well known and benefited the entire chamber. In the twilight of his time with the Legislature, he displayed both wisdom and warmth that made him an invaluable mentor to younger members of this body; and Whereas, Representative Buth did not retire upon leaving the Legislature in 1982, but instead, he continued to work for his community as a member of the Kent County Board of Commissioners, a position which he held for four years. Ever the statesman, Martin Buth left an indelible mark on those who served with him, the people of Kent County, and our state; now, therefore, be it Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we offer this expression of our highest tribute to honor the memory of Martin D. Buth, a member of this legislative body from 1959 to 1982; and be it further Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the Buth 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. ______ The Speaker called the Speaker Pro Tempore to the Chair. Reps. Green, Hertel, Elder, Cambensy, Hammoud, Chirkun, Ellison, Gay-Dagnogo, Sowerby, Wittenberg, Pagan, Geiss, Moss, Jones, Faris, Liberati, Love, Sabo and Sneller offered the following resolution: House Resolution No. 218. A resolution to support other post-employment benefits for current and future local government employees and reaffirm our commitment to local government employees for their devoted service to Michigan communities. 4 JOURNAL OF THE HOUSE [January 10, 2018] [No. 1 Whereas, Employees of local governments depend upon their retirement benefits, including post-employment health benefits, guaranteed to them as a condition of employment. This is especially the case for police and fire officials who, after years of devoted service to their communities, are often forced into early retirement because of dangerous and demanding workplace conditions. Yet, in the face of local financial hardship, local government employees have become the targets of pension and benefit reductions over the past several legislative sessions; and Whereas, Stripping retirement and other post-employment benefits dishonors the dedication and sacrifice local government employees have made to their communities. Reducing benefits will also have an adverse effect on the ability of local government offices, including police and fire departments, to recruit and retain qualified personnel. Prospective candidates look at the current benefit packages and the actions of state and local decision makers when deciding whether a career in public service will lead to adequate and comfortable retirement benefits; and Whereas, The needs for one local retirement system in Michigan are different from the needs of another local retirement system.

  • CAPITOL NEWS UPDATE August 7, 2020
    MCALVEY MERCHANT & ASSOCIATES CAPITOL NEWS UPDATE August 7, 2020 CAPITOL NEWS UPDATE WEEK OF AUGUST 3, 2020 Integrity, Individual Attention. Precision Strategy. Proven Results RECORD-SETTING PRIMARY ELECTIONS A record number of voters participated in Michigan’s primary election on Aug. 4, with more than 2.5 million people casting a vote either in person or by absentee ballot. One of the most followed races in the primary was the 13th Congressional District rematch between U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Detroit) and Detroit City Council President Brenda Jones. Jones represented the district for a few weeks in 2018, following the resignation of Rep. John Conyers (D-Detroit) in December 2017. After his resignation, there were two elections for the seat with Jones winning the special election to complete Conyers unexpired term, and Tlaib winning the regular race for the Congressional seat. This year, Tlaib and Jones were the only primary candidates. On Tuesday, Tlaib won the strongly Democratic district with nearly twice as many votes as Jones, potentially guaranteeing her a second term. In the 3rd Congressional District in West Michigan, Republican Peter Meijer, a U.S. Army veteran whose family founded the well-known Meijer retail chain, won a five-way contest with more than 50 percent of the vote, including holding a strong lead over his main opponent Rep. Lynn Afendoulis. Meijer will face Democratic attorney Hillary Scholten. The winner of that race will succeed U.S. Rep. Justin Amash, a former Republican turned Libertarian who is not seeking reelection. In the 10th Congressional District, a Republican stronghold in the Thumb region, Republican businesswoman Lisa McClain of Bruce Township, a pro-Trump Republican who outspent her opponents, beat state Rep.
