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

            House Resolution No. 441.

            A resolution of tribute for the Honorable Holly Hughes.

            Whereas, It is truly an honor and a privilege to salute Holly Hughes as she brings to a close her tenure as a lawmaker in the Michigan House of Representatives. As an energetic and hardworking member of the House, Representative Hughes has stamped her impression on some of the most timely and important issues in the legislative arena. Her professional manner and enthusiasm have advanced the well-being of not only her constituents in the Ninety-first District, but the residents of west Michigan and all of Michigan; and

            Whereas, After obtaining a bachelor's degree from Michigan State University, Representative Hughes served as a White River Township trustee and as a board member on the Montague Area Public Schools School Board. Representative Hughes is also a small business owner. She has been involved with multiple community organizations, including the Hackley Hospital Cornerstone Foundation, the Muskegon Promise Zone, and the U.S.S. LST 393 Veterans Museum Board; and

            Whereas, Her breadth of experience has been particularly valuable to her work as chair of the Tourism and Outdoor Recreation Committee and as vice chair of the Military and Veterans Affairs Committee. She also served on the House committees on Agriculture; Commerce and Trade; Energy Policy; Families, Children, and Seniors; Health Policy; Local, Intergovernmental, and Regional Affairs, and Natural Resources, as well as the Michigan Capitol Committee. Representative Hughes has served her constituents for six years working to protect and expand benefits for our veterans, lower personal and business taxes, and improve educational opportunities for Michigan children; now, therefore, be it

            Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we offer this expression of tribute to commend and thank the Honorable Holly Hughes for her notable contributions to this legislative body and to our state; and be it further

            Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to Representative Hughes as evidence of our gratitude and best wishes.
