Governor transmits appointments for multiple Michigan boards and commissions to the Senate
Summary
The governor transmitted a slate of appointments to the Michigan Senate for consideration, including appointments to the Michigan Bean Commission, Certificate of Need Commission, Michigan Board of Dietetics and Nutrition and others; the Senate secretary read the list on the floor.
The office of the governor transmitted nominations to the Michigan Senate for multiple boards and commissions during the April 29, 2025 session, and the list was read into the record by a Senate floor officer.
Appointees named on the floor included nominees to the Michigan Bean Commission (Chris Krueger, Alan Fisher, Neil French, Mark Shaw); to the Certificate of Need Commission (Karen Cheeseman, Tatiana Grant); to the Child Abuse and Neglect Prevention Board (Robert O’Meara); to the Crime Victim Services Commission (Jeffrey Getting); and to the Michigan Board of Dietetics and Nutrition (Michelle Bugs, Emily Carmier, Lisonbee Bone, Bethany Thayer, Laura Cole, Lynette Maxey, Tina Guajardo, Tracy Booth, Rucha Modoc, Kimberly Dawn Wisdom, Brian Nader, Ryan Trotter, Arlen Daley).
The secretary also read additional nominations to the Michigan Gaming Control Board (James Ananick); the Board of Health and Safety Compliance and Appeals (Kristen Walcott); the Manufactured Housing Commission (Kimberly Scott, Dominique Clemens, Jason Reid, Holly Hook, Bobby Meehan); an organized-crime advisory board (read on the floor as "organized Veil Crime Advisory Board," name as read); the Board of Professional Engineers (Stanley Opel, Nancy McClain, Paul Scribe, Dax Richer); the Michigan Veterans Facility Authority board of directors (David Henry); and the Michigan Wildlife Council (Jason Garvan and Franklin Hayes).
The floor reading referred the transmitted materials to the appropriate committees as required by Senate procedure; specific committee referrals for individual appointments were not spelled out in the floor excerpt beyond the procedural referral language used when the secretary read communications to the chamber. The Senate did not take recorded confirmation votes on these nominations during the excerpted minutes shown on the floor; the items were entered into the record for committee consideration.
Ending
The list of nominations joins the Senate’s calendar for committee review and any subsequent confirmation proceedings; the transcript records the nominations being transmitted and read into the record on April 29, 2025.
