    The Joint Committee on Administrative Rules submitted the following: Meeting held on Tuesday, March 22, 2022, at 9:00 a.m., Room 1100, Binsfeld Office Building Present: Senators Bumstead (C), McBroom, Theis, Hollier and Irwin The following communication was received: Office of Senator Erika Geiss March 22, 2022 Please list me as a co-sponsor for Senate Bill 969 of 2022 as introduced by Senator Dayna Polehanki. Do not hesitate to reach out to my office if there are any questions or concerns. Sincerely, Erika Geiss State Senator, 6th District Democratic Caucus Chair The communication was referred to the Secretary for record. By unanimous consent the Senate proceeded to the order of Third Reading of Bills Senator Ananich entered the Senate Chamber. Senator Lauwers moved that the Senate proceed to consideration of the following bill: House Bill No. 5541 The motion prevailed. The following bill was read a third time: House Bill No. 5541, entitled A bill to amend 1961 PA 236, entitled “Revised judicature act of 1961,” by amending sections 931, 934, and 946 (MCL 600.931, 600.934, and 600.946), section 931 as amended by 2000 PA 86 and section 934 as amended by 2020 PA 369, and by adding section 935. The question being on the passage of the bill, Senator Johnson offered the following amendment: 1. Amend page 5, line 26, after “ examiners ” by striking out the comma and “ in its discretion, may ” and inserting “ shall ”. The amendment was not adopted, a majority of the members serving not voting therefor. The question being on the passage of the bill, The bill was passed, a majority of the members serving voting therefor, as follows: Roll Call No. 100 Yeas—35 Alexander Daley McBroom Shirkey Ananich Hertel McCann Stamas Barrett Hollier McMorrow Theis Bayer Horn Moss VanderWall Bizon Huizenga Nesbitt Victory Brinks Irwin Outman Wojno Bullock LaSata Polehanki Wozniak Bumstead Lauwers Santana Zorn Chang MacDonald Schmidt Nays—2 Johnson Runestad Excused—1 Geiss Not Voting—0 In The Chair: President The question being on concurring in the committee recommendation to give the bill immediate effect, The recommendation was concurred in, 2/3 of the members serving voting therefor. Pursuant to Joint Rule 20, the full title of the act shall be inserted to read as follows: “An act to revise and consolidate the statutes relating to the organization and jurisdiction of the courts of this state; the powers and duties of the courts, and of the judges and other officers of the courts; the forms and attributes of civil claims and actions; the time within which civil actions and proceedings may be brought in the courts; pleading, evidence, practice, and procedure in civil and criminal actions and proceedings in the courts; to provide for the powers and duties of certain state governmental officers and entities; to provide remedies and penalties for the violation of certain provisions of this act; to repeal all acts and parts of acts inconsistent with or contravening any of the provisions of this act; and to repeal acts and parts of acts,” The Senate agreed to the full title. Protests Senators Johnson and Runestad, under their constitutional right of protest (Art. 4, Sec. 18), protested against the passage of House Bill No. 5541. Senator Johnson moved that the statement she made during the discussion of the amendment she offered to the bill be printed as her reasons for voting “no.” The motion prevailed. Senator Johnson’s statement, in which Senator Runestad concurred, is as follows: I ask my colleagues to support this amendment which would require that the bar exam in Michigan continue to have a component specific to Michigan law. I believe it is not unreasonable if someone wants to practice law in Michigan, that they be asked to demonstrate they have some familiarity with Michigan law. The current test includes a component specific to Michigan law and so I feel to pass this bill without such a requirement would serve to diminish standards in Michigan. I appreciate that the current Board of Law Examiners has expressed their intent to include a specific Michigan component for the bar exam, but the current language in the bill—which states that it is “in its discretion” and that they “may” do this—would allow any future boards to abolish this requirement at any time. I feel this requirement should be set in statute—that is our job—rather than to be totally discretionary and subject to change at any time with no additional legislative review or oversight. Thank you for consideration of this amendment, and Mr. President, should this amendment be defeated, I ask that you allow these comments to serve as my “no” vote explanation and be printed in the Journal. The following bill was read a third time: House Bill No. 4994, entitled A bill to allow for the donation of unclaimed shoes held by persons engaged in the business of shoe repair. The question being on the passage of the bill, The bill was passed, a majority of the members serving voting therefor, as follows: Roll Call No. 101 Yeas—37 Alexander Hertel McBroom Schmidt Ananich Hollier McCann Shirkey Barrett Horn McMorrow Stamas Bayer Huizenga Moss Theis Bizon Irwin Nesbitt VanderWall Brinks Johnson Outman Victory Bullock LaSata Polehanki Wojno Bumstead Lauwers Runestad Wozniak Chang MacDonald Santana Zorn Daley Nays—0 Excused—1 Geiss Not Voting—0 In The Chair: President The question being on concurring in the committee recommendation to give the bill immediate effect, The recommendation was concurred in, 2/3 of the members serving voting therefor.
