The Speaker, on behalf of the entire membership of the House of Representatives, offered the following resolution:
House Resolution No. 389.
A resolution of tribute for the Honorable Earl Poleski.
Whereas, As he brings his tenure with the House of Representatives to a close, the members of this legislative body are honored to recognize the contributions of the Honorable Earl Poleski. He has been a tireless and diligent advocate for his constituents in the Sixty-fourth District and the people of the entire state; and
Whereas, Earl Poleski graduated from Albion College and earned a master’s degree in taxation science from Walsh College to prepare for a career as a certified public accountant. He has more than 30 years of experience practicing individual and business accounting, which has served him well since arriving in Lansing in 2011; and
Whereas, Representative Poleski’s accounting background made him an obvious choice for the Appropriations Committee, on which he has served for the last six years. He has been a vital member of the appropriations process during each of his three terms in the House. Representative Poleski was the appropriations subcommittee chair for General Government during his first two terms and the Judiciary subcommittee chair and the vice chair of the Health and Human Services subcommittee during the 2015-2016 session. He also served on the Education; Fiscal Oversight, Audit, and Litigation; School Aid; Corrections; Transportation; Health and Human Services; Natural Resources; and General Government appropriations subcommittees. His expertise also made him a valuable member of the Financial Liability Reform Committee, which he chaired during the 2013-2014 term and served on in 2015-2016; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives, That we offer this expression of tribute to applaud and thank the Honorable Earl Poleski for his significant contributions to this legislative body and to our entire state; and be it further
Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to Representative Poleski as evidence of our gratitude and best wishes.
