Michigan House adopts resolution honoring former President Jimmy Carter
Summary
The Michigan House adopted House Resolution 13, a tribute to former President Jimmy Carter, after remarks from Representative Martis.
The Michigan House on Jan. 28 adopted House Resolution 13, a tribute to former President Jimmy Carter, after Representative Martis addressed the chamber.
Martis described Carter as “a navy officer, humanitarian, and of course, a peanut farmer from Plains, Georgia,” and said Carter’s post‑presidential work — monitoring elections, building homes for the homeless and public service — reflected “grace and kindness.”
The resolution was read by the clerk and adopted by voice vote after Martis’s remarks. Martis urged colleagues to cosponsor the resolution via the cosponsorship website.
The resolution memorializes Carter’s public service and character; no further committee referral or implementation steps were announced.
