A resolution to declare October 30, 2019, as Auto Heritage Day in the state of Michigan.

Whereas, MotorCities is one of 55 National Heritage Areas in the country and the only one in the state of Michigan; and
Whereas, MotorCities tells the stories of how this state put the world on wheels throughout a region of 10,000 square miles in 16 Michigan counties with a population of more than six million people; and
Whereas, The MotorCities National Heritage Area is the largest concentration of auto-related sites, attractions, and events in the world, bringing millions of visitors and dollars into the state’s economy each year; and
Whereas, For the sixth consecutive year, MotorCities, in partnership with the Michigan Legislative Auto Caucus, has organized an event called Michigan Auto Heritage Day, where supporters of automotive heritage preservation come together in celebration of the state’s unique automotive history; and
Whereas, Michigan legislators are also invited to participate in the Automotive Caucus for members to exchange ideas and influence policy, including auto heritage; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That the members of this legislative body declare October 30, 2019, as Auto Heritage Day in the state of Michigan.
