   The Senate agreed to the title of the bill. Protests Senators Lindsey, Daley, Bellino, Runestad and Theis, under their constitutional right of protest (Art. 4, Sec. 18), protested against the passage of Senate Bill Nos. 205, 206, and 207. Senator Lindsey moved that the statement he made during the discussion of Senate Bill No. 205 be printed as his reasons for voting “no.” The motion prevailed. Senator Lindsey’s statement, in which Senators Daley, Bellino, Runestad and Theis concurred, is as follows: Mr. President, I oppose these bills that will do nothing to improve our state’s housing crisis and will only make it harder for landlords to do business in our state. Mandating participation in government programs is the wrong answer, especially when the programs are notoriously unreliable and inefficient. This will discourage people from becoming landlords at all, ultimately making our housing crisis worse. It amazes me that the majority recognizes problems in our state, understands the need for policy changes, and yet the end result is legislation that will make the problems worse. Maybe I don’t give the majority enough credit though. Maybe there is a solution hidden in this legislation and in others. Failing schools, crumbling roads and infrastructure, unsustainable energy costs and a failing grid, and yes, a housing crisis—all of these can be solved by creating such economic devastation in our state that no one wants to live here. I would prefer a different course of action and I urge a “no” vote.

   Rep. Hall, 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: Federal law already prohibits people convicted of domestic violence from possessing firearms. Senate Bills 471, 528 and House Bill 4945 extend beyond the federal standards, which is why I cosponsored House Bills 5152 and 5153. Michigan should codify the federal law to ensure consistency, which is why I cannot support SBs 471, 528 and HB 4945 as they currently stand.” Senate Bill No. 471, entitled A bill to amend 1931 PA 328, entitled “The Michigan penal code,” by amending section 224f (MCL 750.224f), as amended by 2014 PA 4.
