Rep. Brad Paquette, from the 37th District, offered the following invocation:
“Lord, the great and awesome God, Who keeps His covenant of love with those who love Him and keep His commandments, 5 we have sinned and done wrong. We have been wicked and have rebelled; we have turned away from Your commands and laws. 6 We have not listened to Your servants, the prophets, who spoke in Your name to all the people of the land.
7 ‘Lord, You are righteous, but this day we are covered with shame—the people of Michigan and the inhabitants of the entire United States, both near and far because of our unfaithfulness to You. 8 We and our ancestors are covered with shame, Lord, because we have sinned against You. 9 The Lord our God is merciful and forgiving, even though we have rebelled against Him; 10 we have not obeyed the Lord our God or kept the laws He gave us. 11 We have transgressed Your law and turned away, refusing to obey You.
‘Therefore have mercy on us because we have sinned against You. 12 You fulfilled the words spoken against the people of Israel and against their rulers by bringing great disaster upon them again and again as detailed in the Old Testament. Under the whole heaven nothing has ever been done like what will be done to our country if we turn away from the Lord. 13 Just as it is written, we are instructed to turn from our sins and give attention to God’s truth. For the Lord our God is righteous in everything He does; yet we have not obeyed Him.
15 ‘Now, Lord our God, Who once brought Your people out of Egypt with a mighty hand and Who made for Yourself a name that endures to this day, we have sinned, we have done wrong. 16 Lord, in keeping with all Your righteous acts, turn away Your anger and Your wrath from this country, one meant to be a city on a hill. Our sins and the iniquities of our ancestors have made the United States and Your people an object of scorn to all those around us.
17 ‘Now, our God, hear the prayers and petitions of Your servant. Lord, look with favor upon those who do Your will faithfully and turn from their wicked ways. We confess our sin and accept Your grace, being washed by the blood of Jesus Christ as we turn to You now in His Holy Name.”

Motions and Resolutions
By unanimous consent the House considered House Resolution No. 155 out of numerical order.
The Speaker, on behalf of the entire membership of the House of Representatives, offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 155.
A resolution of tribute offered as a memorial for Edward Vaughn, former member of the House of Representatives.
Whereas, It was with great sadness that the members of
this legislative body learned about the passing of Edward “Ed” Vaughn. He will
be remembered for his fierce dedication to his constituents in Detroit and the
people of the state of Michigan; and
Whereas, Edward Vaughn was born in 1934 in Abbeville, Alabama, but raised in Dothan, Alabama. He traveled north to pursue higher education, earning a bachelor’s degree in history and government from Fisk University in Nashville, Tennessee, then studying at the University of Illinois Law School for one year. Ed moved to Michigan in hopes of finding work in the auto industry, but instead he would find his calling as a community leader and a driver of the Civil Rights Movement in Detroit. After marrying his wife, Wilma, in 1957, Ed served in the United States Army until 1959, receiving an honorable discharge. Upon returning to Detroit, Ed opened Vaughn’s Book Store on Dexter Avenue and sold books about African-American history and books by Black authors to the people of Detroit. The bookstore also became a gathering place for local leaders seeking to advance the Civil Rights and Black Power movements. Ed also took steps to build institutions and connections outside his bookstore, founding the Pan-African Congress—USA in Detroit, helping to organize the Detroit chapter of the Congress of Racial Equity, and serving as a representative at the Sixth Pan-African Congress; and
Whereas, In 1978, Ed Vaughn turned his attentions to state government, being elected to represent the Eighth District in the House of Representatives. He served as majority vice chair of the Liquor Control Committee, and he also served on the committees on Economic Development and Energy, Public Safety, and Urban Affairs. After losing in the primary election in 1980, Ed returned to Detroit to work in local politics and run Vaughn’s Book Store. He worked as an executive assistant to Detroit Mayor Coleman Young, and he campaigned twice for a seat on the Detroit City Council; and
Whereas, Ed Vaughn returned to the House of Representatives in 1995, serving the Fourth District for three terms. During his second stint in the Legislature, Ed served as chair of the Committee on Constitutional and Civil Rights, as vice chair of the Committee on Agriculture, and as a member of the committees on Economic Development, Insurance, Judiciary, Regulatory Reform, and Tourism. In 1999, when Detroit Public Schools faced a takeover by the state, Ed fought fervently to retain local control of the school district, even in the face of opposition from both parties. Though he was ultimately unsuccessful in this one endeavor, he will be remembered by the people of Detroit for his steadfast commitment to the city’s right to control its own destiny and his belief in their ability to effect positive change; and
Whereas, After reaching his term limit in the House, Ed Vaughn considered continuing his state service in the Senate, but after losing a special primary election in February 2001, he returned to Alabama to be with family. There, he became more involved with the NAACP, being elected vice president of the Dothan/Wiregrass branch and president of the NAACP Alabama State Conference and serving as a delegate to the national NAACP convention in 2014. Vaughn’s Book Store closed in 1994, but in 2023 it was added to the National Registry of Historic Places, and the people of Detroit are working on plans to revitalize the site. The legacy of Vaughn’s Book Store as a place of learning, community, and Black empowerment will continue to inspire Detroiters for generations to come; and
Whereas, Ed Vaughn is survived by his wife, Wilma, five of his six children, and numerous grandchildren, nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends. We offer our condolences to his loved ones as they mourn his loss. Ed Vaughn’s contributions to the city of Detroit, to this chamber, and to the people of the state of Michigan will be remembered; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we offer this expression of our highest tribute to honor the memory of Edward Vaughn, a member of the House of Representatives from 1979 to 1980 and from 1995 to 2000; and be it further
Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the Vaughn 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.

______
Rep. Longjohn, having reserved the right to explain his protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:
“Mr. Speaker and members of the House:
I will not vote yes for another 1st Chamber, Republican-led, Bill until there is a Medicaid budget introduced, our schools are funded, and the priorities of the people of Michigan are being addressed in the House. In this case, I also voted no on House Bill 4707, which would ban ranked choice voting in Michigan, because democracy means voters have the freedom and ultimate authority to decide how to best express their will. In June, the MI Board of Canvassers approved a proposed summary of a ballot petition that would bring ranked choice voting to Michigan and signatures are currently being collected to try and get it on the 2026 ballot. If the ballot proposal passes, HB 4707 would immediately conflict with it — creating legal conflict and confusion among local governments and voters alike. Even worse, this ban would strip away local control by voiding all existing ranked choice voting ordinances and silencing communities that have already chosen to adopt them.
Instead of imposing a one-size-fits-all mandate, we should respect the will of the people and allow them to decide. Our time as a chamber would be far better spent tackling urgent challenges — like passing a full state budget that funds universal school meals for kids and helps families with the rising costs of living — rather than interfering with decisions that communities have a right to vote on for themselves.”
Rep. Morgan, having reserved the right to explain his protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement:

Motions and Resolutions
Reps. Arbit, Myers-Phillips, Tsernoglou, Rheingans, Glanville, McKinney, Steckloff, Andrews, Wegela, McFall, Mentzer, Wooden, Morgan, Coffia, Skaggs, Foreman, Breen, Young, MacDonell, Hoskins, Pohutsky, Price, Brenda Carter, Grant, Miller, Paiz, Scott, O’Neal, Martus, Hope, Conlin, Wilson, Koleszar, Weiss, Longjohn, Brixie and Puri offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 153.
A resolution to reaffirm our support for the
Twenty-Second Amendment to the United States Constitution, establishing a
two-term limit for the office of President of the United States.
Whereas, The United States has had a strong norm of a two-term limit for President since our founding days, which we have since codified as the Twenty-Second Amendment to the United States Constitution. Only one United States President, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, has ever served for more than two terms, and it was his unprecedented election to third and fourth terms of office that prompted the creation of the Twenty-Second Amendment. As a result, our Constitution now provides:
No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.
; and
Whereas, All Presidents have respected the two-term limit since it was ratified in the mid-20th century; and
Whereas, Term limits act as a crucial barrier to the consolidation of power by would-be autocrats. One of the more common forms of democratic backsliding today is executive aggrandizement, whereby elected executives weaken checks on their power. Presidential systems are inherently more vulnerable to democratic backsliding than parliamentary systems, especially given the tremendous power concentrated in the office of the president. Term limits are an important constitutional safeguard in presidential systems, as has been recognized by many nations across the globe. According to data from the Comparative Constitutions Project, as of 2023, the constitutions of 108 countries imposed term limits on the office of president; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we reaffirm our support for the Twenty-Second Amendment to the United States Constitution, establishing a two-term limit for the office of President of the United States; and be it further
Resolved, That we reject any claim by any individual intended to undermine the Twenty-Second Amendment, or any attempt by any individual to delegitimize, weaken, amend, ignore, or subvert the Twenty-Second Amendment.
The resolution was referred to Committee on Government Operations.
Reps. Pohutsky, Price, Rogers, McFall, Myers-Phillips, Byrnes, Weiss, Morgan and Scott offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 154.
A resolution to urge Congress to uphold Medicaid patients’ right to provider choice by establishing a private right of action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and urge the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services to monitor state and federal actions affecting Medicaid’s provider-choice policies.
Whereas, Medicaid’s “any-qualified-provider” provision requires states to ensure that Medicaid beneficiaries may obtain health care services from any qualified provider. On June 26, 2025, the United States Supreme Court issued its decision in Medina v. Planned Parenthood South Atlantic, ruling that Medicaid beneficiaries lack a private cause of action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 to enforce the “any-qualified-provider” provision. The majority found the provision does not contain language that creates clear and unambiguous rights allowing individuals to bring suit against a state that does not follow the federally required provision. This limits enforcement to federal agencies, thereby removing judicial recourse for individuals and undermining protections intended by the “any-qualified-provider” provision; and
Whereas, The dissent warned this ruling effectively allows states to exclude qualified providers—including Planned Parenthood clinics—from Medicaid, even for non‑abortion care such as cancer screenings, contraceptive services, and STI checks, imposing undue burdens on low-income, LGBTQ+, rural, and reproductive healthcare patients. States like Indiana and South Carolina have already used this ruling in defense of policies denying Medicaid provider access, and numerous other states are likely considering similar actions, threatening the health and autonomy of Medicaid recipients; and
Whereas, Federal policy recognizes that provider choice generally results in better health outcomes for patients, and judicial enforcement ensures compliance with policies where administrative remedies may fail. Securing provider‑choice rights for the 2.2 million Michiganders enrolled in Medicaid is essential to Michigan’s commitment to public health; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we urge Congress to uphold Medicaid patients’ right to provider choice by establishing a private right of action under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and implement funding incentives and penalties to deter states from excluding qualified providers from Medicaid; and be it further
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we urge
the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services to monitor any state or
federal attempts to exclude providers like Planned Parenthood from Medicaid,
assess impacts on access and equity, and report their findings annually to the
Legislature; and be it further
Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to the President of the United States, the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, the Majority Leader of the United States Senate, the Director of the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, and the members of the Michigan congressional delegation.
The resolution was referred to Committee on Government Operations.
