"Members are asked to be at their seats. We shall be led in prayer today by Reverend Kevin Massey, who is with Advocate Lutheran General Hospital in Park Ridge, Illinois. Reverend Massey is the guest of Representative David Harris. Members and guests are asked to refrain from starting their laptops, turn off all cell phones, and rise for the invocation and the Pledge of Allegiance."

Reverend Massey

"Thank you, Sir. It is a great privilege to be here with you all. I want to just first thank you all for your service on behalf of the State of Illinois. The role of governing, I know, is challenging and perhaps thankless. And as just one of your citizens of the state, I do want to thank you all for your service. I'm also aware, throughout the day today, among those visiting this esteemed building will be a number of nurses. We all owe a debt of gratitude to nurses everywhere for their healing ministry. In our nation's history, nurses have cared for the sick and injured on farms, in cities, in hospitals and schools, even on battlefields, always with courage and compassion. They serve in all places of need in the hours both of day and night, tirelessly and patiently tending to the needs of countless others. They deserve always our admiration and gratitude. And so, as you open your deliberations today in this honored chamber, I will offer blessings upon your work today and thanks for the thousands of nurses of our beloved state. Gracious God, You have so wonderfully created us all and so richly care for us through Your love, often expressed by the tender hands of persons with healing missions. Bless all nurses everywhere today. Uplift and support them in their challenging work. 09800122.docx 1 STATE OF ILLINOIS 98th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 122nd Legislative Day 4/30/2014 This day, bless the deliberations of this Assembly, gracious God. We thank You, that You have uplifted the women and men of the House to serve and govern in this place. Guide them and bless them in their noble work enacted today. We pray these things in Your holy name, Amen."

Arthur Turner (D)

"We shall be led in the Pledge of Allegiance today by Representative Crespo."

Arthur Turner (D)

"Representative Bost."

Mike Bost (R)

"Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Let the record reflect that all Republicans are present and ready to do the work of the people. That means there's 118 of us here. Isn't that amazing?"

Arthur Turner (D)

"Mr. Clerk, please take the record. With 118 Members present, a quorum is established. Representative Tryon, for what reason do you seek recognition?"

Michael W. Tryon (R)

"Hello? There we… Thank you, Mr. Speaker and Ladies and Gentlemen of the House. Last night, we had the first annual diabetes… Illinois Legislative Diabetes Foundation bowling event, where Legislators and their teams showed up and participated and it was quite an event. For those who couldn't 09800122.docx 2 STATE OF ILLINOIS 98th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 122nd Legislative Day 4/30/2014 make it, we think we raised somewhere about $10 thousand to promote our efforts. But there were a lot of eye-opening things that happened last night. Who would've ever thought that Will Davis is probably a professional bowler when he's not here on the House Floor, rolled a 229, had the high single game. And his team, 'Big Strike', definitely the best dressed team, not just of the event we had but in the entire bowling alley last night. So, congratulations to them. Wayne Padget, our Doorman, probably we can see him on The World Series of Bowling. He rolled two games over 205 and his team actually came. HOT, Hammond, Osmond and Tracy, none of those three actually bowled, but they were probably the best cheerleaders I've ever seen and brought in our staff, who were all on bowling leagues and they actually hit 2100 pins and raised over $21 hundred, $1771. And therefore, the annual traveling bowling trophy I have to present to team HOT for an excellent showing. The Durkin Diabeaters team, close on the next best dressed team. They showed up in Hawaiian shirts and we… and we had a really good time. But Patti Bellock's team had the most creative shirts. On the back, it said 'this team has no sugar added'. So… so, we have the trophy for the best team and the traveling pin. So, thank you all."

Arthur Turner (D)

Speaker Turner: "Thank you, Representative. Representative Moffitt for… excuse me. Representative Halbrook, for what reason do you seek recognition?"

The 09800122.docx 10 STATE OF ILLINOIS 98th GENERAL ASSEMBLY HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TRANSCRIPTION DEBATE 122nd Legislative Day 4/30/2014 Illinois EPA partnered back in 1996 with Navistar to redo and reinvigorate a land that was left by the steel closing. In 1980, Wisconsin Steel closed, as many steel industries closed throughout the nation and throughout the state and it left a eyesore on the southeast side of Chicago within my community. We can say now, starting in 1996 to this point in 2013, the project was completed. The remediation was done. A partnership between private industry and EPA was a success. This Resolution highlights their success, encourages other partnerships like this between our various departments in Illinois and private industry. Now… what we have now, rather than having a… an eyesore, a brownfield, a vacant property, we have bustling businesses in Illinois. Two businesses located at that area at 106th and Torrence Avenue revitalizes that business industry. So, I ask for your support for this Resolution."
