SR-191, As Adopted by Senate, December 1, 2010
Senator Bishop offered the following resolution:
Senate Resolution No. 191.
A resolution of tribute to Senator Cameron Brown.
Whereas, It is most fitting for the members of this legislative body to pay tribute to our colleague, Senator Cameron Brown, as he brings to a close his tenure as a member of the Senate; and
Whereas, Cameron Brown brought to the Capitol invaluable private sector experience that has been an asset to the Michigan Legislature. He came equipped with a keen business acumen coupled with a desire to actively engage in public service through the legislative process. He earned a bachelor's degree from the University of Missouri-Kansas City and a master's degree in public administration from Western Michigan University. Prior to coming to the Senate, he distinguished himself throughout his two terms in the House of Representatives, ten years as a St. Joseph County commissioner, and service as a member of the Sturgis City Commission; and
Whereas, In the Senate, Cameron Brown distinguished himself as the chair of the Homeland Security and Emerging Technologies Committee. He was also vice chair of the Campaign and Election Oversight Committee and the Energy Policy and Public Utilities Committee. Senator Brown also has been heavily engaged in the process of crafting the state's budget during very difficult economic times as a member of the Appropriations Committee and served as chair of the Subcommittee on Agriculture; and
Whereas, Cameron Brown's entire career has embodied his heartfelt commitment to public service and to the state of Michigan. Senator Brown has a strong sense of Michigan's heritage, being the sixth generation of his family to live in southern Michigan. He has carried out his legislative duties with compassion and integrity modeled after his hero, President Abraham Lincoln; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the Senate, That we hereby extend this expression of gratitude to the Honorable Cameron Brown as he brings to a close his service in the Senate; and be it further
Resolved, That copies of this resolution be transmitted to Senator Brown as evidence of our esteem.
