Not Voting—0 In The Chair: President The Senate agreed to the title of the bill. Senator Irwin asked and was granted unanimous consent to make a statement and moved that the statement be printed in the Journal. The motion prevailed. Senator Irwin’s statement is as follows: Thank you, Mr. President, for the opportunity to briefly describe this legislation. Here in Michigan we had regulations around camping tents that were designed many years ago when these tents were mainly made out of canvas. At that time, there were certain flame-retardancy and fire protection standards put into law. Unfortunately, those rules didn’t weather the test of time well. Now camping tents are made out of different materials, higher tech materials, and these flame-retardant chemicals don’t actually improve the fire protection performance of camping tents in the modern environment. This bill is a piece of legislation that I put together to meet at that nexus of lessening regulation and improving environmental protection because putting these cancer-causing flame-retardant chemicals on tents doesn’t work and it has the potential to make people a little bit more sick. So, I offer this bill and hope for the support of my colleagues today.
