- Senator Stamas asked and was granted unanimous consent to make a statement and moved that the statement be printed in the Journal.
The motion prevailed.
Senator Stamas’ statement is as follows:
I rise to ask for your support on House Bill No. 4410. This bill includes important funds for our local governments, hospitals, nursing homes, and our secondary road patrol.
This bill increases statutory revenue sharing by 2.1 percent, bringing the total funding for cities, villages, and townships to $266 million. Also included is $100 million in federal recovery funding to support our skilled nursing facilities and $160 million in federal funds for our hospitals. Lastly, we provide $2.7 million in federal recovery funds to our counties for secondary road patrols. This addresses a decline in the restricted revenue that supports the Secondary Road Patrol Program.
There is still much work to be done on the state budget, but these funds are an immediate priority while we thoughtfully consider the once-in-a-lifetime federal funding we have received and how we best utilize them to make a lasting improvement and investment in our state. I ask for Senators’ support.
By unanimous consent the Senate returned to consideration of the following bill:
