House
Chamber, Lansing, Tuesday, October 7, 2025.
1:30 p.m.
The House was
called to order by the Clerk.
The roll was called by the Clerk of the
House of Representatives, who announced that a quorum was not present.
Rep. Noah Arbit,
from the 20th District, offered the following invocation:
“As we open today’s
session on October 7th, 2025, I ask that we open our hearts to the fight for
freedom of the 48 remaining hostages who were abducted from their homes on
October 7th, 2023, two years ago today, and taken as captives to Gaza by Hamas
terrorists.
May their call for
freedom be heard in this House, and may the calls of all people who are still
not free be heard in this House, as I recite the Acheinu,
a prayer for freedom, dating back to the 11th Century:

Our brothers, the
whole house of Israel, who are in distress, or in captivity — who stand either
in the sea or on dry land — may the Omnipresent have mercy on them and take
them out from narrowness to expanse, and from darkness to light, and from
oppression to redemption, now, swiftly, and soon.
ברוך
אתה יי אלהינו
מלך העולם
מתיר אסורים.
Blessed are You
Adonai our God, King of the universe, Who frees the
captive.
Amen.”
