House Resolution No. 86.
A resolution to establish a special committee on Roads and Economic Development.
Whereas, The people of the state of Michigan deserve an equitable, long-term solution to fix our crumbling roads and infrastructure that should be delivered by the State Legislature to improve the safety of the roadways for Michigan’s hard-working taxpayers and their families and protect citizens’ livelihoods today and in years to come; and
Whereas, A swift, sensible, and reliable resolution to the state’s road-funding challenges will provide greater economic opportunities and improved transportation safety for the citizens and families of this great state of Michigan; and
Whereas, The House of Representatives will focus their efforts to develop a lasting solution to resolve the state’s decades old road-funding crisis in order to provide better roads, dependable infrastructure, and improved safety for the people of Michigan and visitors to our state; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That there be created a special committee on Roads and Economic Development to review and recommend legislation to focus on a solution to our crumbling infrastructure. The special committee on Roads and Economic Development shall consist of 7 members appointed in the same manner as standing committees of the House are appointed.
