“The House Health Policy Committee has been tasked with examining legislation pertaining policy on public health, the health care system in Michigan (including regulation of health care providers,) behavioral and mental health, and patient well-being. The intention of the committee is to work in an inclusive manner to bring evidence-based and patient-centered public policy forward to increase access to high quality and affordable health care with increasingly better health outcomes each year. Additionally, this term we have a new Behavioral Health sub-committee to focus on issues in the behavioral health and addiction arena.

“COMMITTEE ON GOVERNMENT OPERATIONS
“a) Except as otherwise provided by Senate rule, all executive business shall be referred to the Committee on Government Operations.
“b) Executive orders issued by the Governor, except those dealing with matters of appropriations or expenditure reductions, shall be referred to the Committee on Government Operations. Any executive order dealing with matters of executive reorganization may be disapproved by a resolution concurred in by a majority of members elected to and serving in each house within 60 calendar days after receipt at a regular session, or a full regular session if of shorter duration. Unless disapproved within that time, the executive order shall become effective at a date thereafter to be designated by the Governor (see Const. Art. 5, Sec. 2).
“c) Executive orders dealing with matters of appropriations or expenditure reductions shall be referred to the Committee on Appropriations (see MCL 18.1391)…
“e) Upon written notice to the Secretary of the Senate, the chairperson of the Committee on Government Operations may request a Senate standing committee to hold hearings and make written recommendations to the Committee on Government Operations on any executive business referred to the Committee on Government Operations. The Senate standing committee may adopt by a committee vote a recommendation to the Committee on Government Operations.
“f) All appointments to office submitted by the Governor to the Senate shall be referred to the Committee on Government Operations. Effective upon written notification to the Secretary of the Senate, the chairperson of the Committee on Government Operations may request a Senate standing committee to hold hearings and make written recommendations to the Committee on Government Operations on a gubernatorial appointment. The Senate standing committee may adopt by committee vote a recommendation to the Committee on Government Operations.
- “No appointment shall be voted upon until it has been printed in the Journal.
- “On all appointments to office reported favorably or without recommendation by the Committee on Government Operations, the question before the Senate shall be on advising and consenting to the appointment. On all appointments reported unfavorably, the question shall be on the disapproval of the appointment.
- “The vote of a majority of the Senators elected and serving by record roll call vote shall be required to approve or disapprove any appointment to office submitted by the Governor. Any appointments considered by the Senate shall be in open session, unless a majority of the Senators elected and serving shall vote in favor of an Executive Session.
- “Any appointment not disapproved within 60 session days after receipt shall stand confirmed (see Const. Art. 5, sec. 6).
“g) If an appointment is made at a time when the 60 days would lapse during an extended recess of the Senate, the Senate Majority Leader may schedule a session of the Senate for the sole purpose of carrying out the Senate’s constitutional duties to advise and consent on gubernatorial appointments. The Senate Majority Leader shall notify the Secretary of the Senate at least 10 calendar days prior to the date of the scheduled session. The Secretary of the Senate shall take all reasonable steps to notify the members of the Senate of the scheduled session” (Senate Rule 2.104).
