            The Speaker, on behalf of the entire membership of the House of Representatives, offered the following resolution:

            House Resolution No. 339.   

            A resolution of tribute for the Honorable Lisa Brown.

            Whereas, It is most appropriate to thank Lisa Brown for her dedication and contributions to this legislative body throughout her two terms in office. Representative Brown has been a valuable and hard-working colleague, and we wish her well in her future endeavors; and

            Whereas, Lisa Brown earned a bachelor's degree from Michigan State University and a law degree from the Detroit College of Law. She is a member of the State Bar. During her four years of service representing the Thirty-ninth District in the Michigan House of Representatives, Representative Brown has fought for education, health care, and families. She has served with distinction as Democratic vice-chair of the Education Committee as well as on the Judiciary, Oversight, Reform and Ethics, Energy and Technology, and Ethics and Elections committees; and

            Whereas, Representative Brown sponsored legislation to convert the idle Wixom Ford plant to a world-class energy park, creating jobs and investment in alternative energy. She also has worked toward increased accountability and transparency by sponsoring legislation to require robo-callers to identify the person or organization paying for the call. Lisa Brown has courageously stood for her convictions and worked tirelessly on behalf of the people of her district and the state; now, therefore, be it

            Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we offer this expression of gratitude to commend and thank the Honorable Lisa Brown for her notable contribution to this legislative body and the entire state; and be it further

            Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to Representative Brown as a token of our esteem and best wishes.
