Not Voting—0 In The Chair: President The Senate agreed to the title of the bill. Protest Senator Runestad, under his constitutional right of protest (Art. 4, Sec. 18), protested against the passage of Senate Bill No. 378. Senator Runestad’s statement is as follows: Thank you, Mr. President, I just wanted a quick “no” vote explanation on that bill that allows you to join an organization in order to not do your continuing education credits. I’m an insurance agent, licensed, and take all my continuing education credits where you have to make sure you’re updated on all of the current laws dealing with clients that you may deal with to join an organization, some insurance organization, that may or may not have the best interests of the public at large, and that gets your credit? It makes me very suspicious of how this came about, and how did they get the influence to basically induce people to join, agents to join their organization and skirt around what I believe is necessary, and that is the actual training. The following bill was read a third time: Senate Bill No. 495, entitled A bill to amend 1956 PA 218, entitled “The insurance code of 1956,” by amending section 8182 (MCL 500.8182), as added by 1990 PA 1, and by adding sections 8199b and 8199c.
