Fully vaccinated individuals will no longer be required to wear a face covering indoors. However, some businesses may continue to require face coverings inside their establishments regardless of a customer\u2019s vaccination status. Individuals who have not been fully vaccinated must continue to wear face masks.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&gt;&gt;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.michigan.gov\/coronavirus\/0,9753,7-406-98178_98455-560465--,00.html\">Click here for more information on the updated mask order<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The FDA has now approved the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine for children 12 years of age or older. According to MDHHS, children between the ages of 10 to 19 made up 12.6% of COVID cases in Michigan since March 2020, with more than 102,000 cases statewide. More than 1,300 children under the age of 18 in Michigan have been hospitalized for COVID-related conditions since August 2020.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Wayne County Health Department is administering vaccines to all Wayne County residents and workers (ages 12 and older), excluding Detroit, at six clinics located throughout Wayne County.

We continue to mourn the tragic deaths of Floyd and countless others across the country and know that many Americans still feel justifiable pain and anger. I am proud to work on this bipartisan legislation that will make a significant difference for our communities and prevent cases of police brutality. Change in our justice system is overdue and we have important work ahead to make these solutions a reality.\u00a0<br \/><br \/>The 12-bill legislative package includes:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SB 473, sponsored by Sen. Roger Victory (R-Hudsonville)<\/strong>, to require the Michigan Commission on Law Enforcement Standards (MCOLES) to develop guidelines for independent investigations of officer-involved deaths and require each agency to develop a publicly available policy that meets those guidelines.\u00a0<br \/><strong>SB 474, sponsored by Sen. Jeremy Moss (D-Southfield)<\/strong>, to require Use of Force violations to be included in separation records maintained by MCOLES.\u00a0<br \/><strong>SB 475, sponsored by Sen. Ken Horn (R-Frankenmuth)<\/strong>, to allow MCOLES to revoke the license of an officer who used excessive force causing death or serious bodily harm.\u00a0<br \/><strong>SB 476, sponsored by Sen. Jim Ananich (D-Flint)<\/strong>, to ban the intentional disclosure of the identity of a person who made a misconduct complaint against a law enforcement officer.\u00a0<br \/><strong>SB 477, sponsored by Sen. Adam Hollier (D-Detroit)<\/strong>, to exempt a police union from representing a member in a disciplinary action if it is determined by the union that the grievance is without merit.\u00a0<br \/><strong>SB 478, sponsored by Sen. Jim Runestad (R-White Lake)<\/strong>, to ban the use of the chokehold as a restraint method except to save a life.\u00a0<br \/><strong>SB 479, sponsored by Sen. Erika Geiss (D-Taylor)<\/strong>, to ban the use of \u201cno-knock\u201d warrants except in certain circumstances and better define \u201cknock and enter\u201d warrants.\u00a0<br \/><strong>SB 480, sponsored by Sen. Ruth Johnson (R-Holly)<\/strong>, to establish an affirmative duty to intervene to prevent the excessive use of force by another officer and allow for disciplinary action for those who fail to do so.\u00a0<br \/><strong>SB 481, sponsored by Sen. Stephanie Chang (D-Detroit)<\/strong>, would require Use of Force policies for all police agencies to include a use of force continuum, verbal warning, and exhaustion of alternatives before using deadly force.\u00a0<br \/><strong>SB 482, sponsored by Sen. Jeff Irwin (D-Ann Arbor)<\/strong>, to require training standards regarding de-escalation, implicit bias, and behavioral health be developed by MCOLES and require continuing education for law enforcement officers.\u00a0<br \/><strong>SB 483, sponsored by Sen. Michael D. MacDonald (R-Macomb Township)<\/strong>, to direct MCOLES to commission a study on the recruitment and retention of law enforcement officers to discover barriers to attracting and retaining high quality individuals.\u00a0<br \/><strong>SB 484, sponsored by Sen. Marshall Bullock (D-Detroit)<\/strong>, to specifically include tampering with body cameras or intentionally turning off the camera for the purpose of interfering with an investigation or proceeding in the crime of tampering with evidence.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Drive SAFE Bills&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>On May 11, Senator Winnie Brinks and I introduced Senate Bills&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/legislature.mi.gov\/doc.aspx?2021-SB-0433\">433<\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/legislature.mi.gov\/doc.aspx?2021-SB-0434\">434<\/a>, the Drive SAFE (Safety, Access, Freedom, and the Economy) bills. The bills would make non-commercial Michigan driver&#8217;s licenses and state identification cards available to applicants who do not have proof of legal presence. The bills eliminate the &#8220;legal presence&#8221; requirement for standard licenses and they would specify types of documentation allowable for proving Michigan residency and identity.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Michigan is home to nearly 700,000 immigrants and guaranteeing them access to licenses and state identification cards would allow them to contribute to our local economies by allowing them to get to work or drop their kids off at school. Unlicensed drivers are much more likely to get into a fatal car crash, so ensuring that all drivers take driver\u2019s training, pass the road test, and get insured would improve safety on the road. Much of Michigan\u2019s agricultural economy would also benefit from these bills because migrant workers need to be able to get to work safely and without fear. These commonsense bills will enhance road safety, grow our agricultural economy, and protect human dignity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Protecting Environmental Justice Communities&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Last week, I introduced&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/legislature.mi.gov\/doc.aspx?2021-SB-0439\">Senate Bill 439<\/a>&nbsp;to protect communities that shoulder a disproportionate burden of environmental pollution. I am proud to collaborate with Representative Abraham Aiyash on this legislation, which will allow the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes and Energy (EGLE) to make decisions on the permitting of facilities by considering environmental justice in communities already overburdened by adverse factors. The status quo fails to protect our most vulnerable communities from the adverse public health consequences caused by decades of saturated environmental pollution.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>BUDGET UPDATE&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Last week, the Michigan Senate and House each voted on a series of budgets, and those bills have now gone to conference committee so that differences can be resolved. I voted no on most of the Senate budget bills because they did not reflect the values that we need to uphold as we get ourselves out of the COVID-19 pandemic. We must prioritize worker safety, better unemployment benefits, childcare affordability and accessibility, education, water infrastructure, and much more. Budgets reflect our values and I hope that, later this year, we can pass a budget that better serves Michigan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Secured $250,000 for Know Your Rights Outreach&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The Senate adopted my budget amendment last week for $250,000 in additional funding to the Michigan Department of Civil Rights (MDCR) for know your rights outreach about discrimination and hate incidents. With the recent doubling in numbers of Michigan incidents reported to the STOP AAPI Hate organization, the funding is greatly needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Enbridge Lawsuit Funding in State Budget&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Senate Republicans voted last week to spend your taxpayer dollars on paying the lawyers for a Canadian oil company (Enbridge) involved in the lawsuit related to Line 5. Yes, you read that right. Remember that this is a pipeline through which most of the oil goes from Canada, through Michigan, to another part of Canada. Line 5 endangers the Great Lakes and our public health.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&gt;&gt;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/stephaniechangMI\/videos\/487420049138836\">Click here to watch what I had to say about this legislation<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>20% Cut to MIOSHA&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The budget passed by the Senate includes a 20% cut to MIOSHA, our state\u2019s agency dedicated to protecting worker safety. I offered an amendment to restore this funding, but it was unfortunately defeated.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During this time when more workers will be headed back to in-person work, it is more important than ever that we have a strong MIOSHA, not a weaker one. Workers deserve to know their workplaces will be safe and that precautions are being taken to prevent COVID-19 transmission from their co-workers or customers. Likewise, small businesses need technical assistance and support from MIOSHA to be able to implement safe workplace best practices.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&gt;&gt;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/stephaniechangMI\/videos\/252644673317714\">Click here to watch my remarks at Senate session on my amendment to support MIOSHA<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>WAYNE STATE STUDY \u2014 AGING AND CHANGING NATURAL ENVIRONMENT&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Aging &amp; Changing Natural Environments in Detroit (ACNED) research project is a collaboration between Wayne State University\u2019s School of Social Work and the Healthy Urban Waters initiative. This unique study, headed by Dr. Tam Perry, seeks to better understand the impacts of climate change, changing natural environments, and water and housing concerns of older adults in Detroit.
