            A resolution of tribute for the Honorable Dan Scripps.

            Whereas, It is with great respect that we thank Dan Scripps for his dedicated service to the state of Michigan throughout the Ninety-fifth Legislature. The residents of Leelanau, Benzie, Manistee, and Mason Counties have been well represented by his hard work and thoughtful contributions to the legislative process during a difficult juncture in Michigan's history; and

            Whereas, A proud graduate of Alma College and the University of Michigan Law School, Dan Scripps has made public service a keystone of his professional career. He has been a dedicated member of numerous children's, conservation, economic development, and legal organizations. He has consistently worked towards brightening Michigan's future, as demonstrated by his involvement in the Center for Michigan's "Michigan’s Defining Moment Public Engagement Campaign" and the Michigan Election Law Project; and

            Whereas, After his election to the Michigan House of Representatives in 2008, Dan Scripps worked diligently and tirelessly to serve the residents of the One-hundred and first House District. His deep knowledge of the law and his sensitivity to the needs of his constituents and the entire state during difficult economic times were greatly beneficial to the work of this legislative body. His leadership skills and consistency were evident in his chairmanship of the Banking and Financial Services Committee. His notable contributions to the legislative process include championing legislation to create an Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Revolving Loan Fund and playing an important role in the Energy and Technology Committee, Ethics and Elections Committee, Great Lakes and Environment Committee, and the Public Health Care Reform Committee; now, therefore, be it

            Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we extend our appreciation and thanks to Representative Dan Scripps, for his service to this legislative body and the entire state; and be it further
