"On April 7th Vermont became the first state to allow gay marriage through legislation, rather than a court order".
Can anyone please tell me the difference b/w legislation and court order?|||legislation = law made by legislatures
Order = law made by a judge (or panel thereof)
The Order may or may not apply to you, it depends on if the decision was published or if you were a party to the action.|||Legislation is an act of the legislature - The State House (or whatever their equivalent is).
A Court Order is an act of the judiciary - A Judge on a bench makes a ruling.

Why is the current congress stonewalling legislation to allow more domestic oil production?
Nancy Pelosi won't let legislation come up for a vote that would allow us to produce more oil and help lower the price of gasoline. Why won't she and the democrats let it come up for a vote?|||because the current congress wants to blame the lack of action on a republican president and not having enough of a majority ..
if they fix this now.. then in November the voting public wont' be riled up.|||Because they think environmental issues are more important.....that's all it comes down to.
The question is how many people agree?|||Because they can't tax it|||The Democrats need economic chaos to terrorize their loyal constituencies into submission.|||Because she is an idiot, with India and China consuming more and more, it has been and will continue to be a supply and demand issue, and the price being set by OPEC. The problem is that most people do not understand supply and demand economics and what the structure is of the cost of gas per gallon. Do you know that we are using more oil now than EVER before! People are driving at an alarming rate. Do you realize how much petroleum鈥檚 used in making plastics and then how many things we use are made of plastics? The oil company makes about 12 cents a gallon as profit. The rest is made up of Federal and State taxes, the cost of exploration and the cost of production, Refining and then the cost of the additives that we have to put in the gas (we call it designer gas, thanks to the environmentalist wacko's). Do you know that we have not built a refinery in almost 60 years? (thanks again environmentalist). The refineries that we have are working at capacity and that is not enough to keep up with demand. Do you know that we hardly get any oil from the Middle East? Yes we are not in Iraq for oil, they have enough to export but not as much as you think. Even iran imports most of their oil. Most people think that is where it all comes from. Not true. We get our oil form Canada, Mexico, Venezuela and Africa, in that order. What we get from Saudi is a very small %. You want the cost of gas to drop....STOP driving or at the very least cut back 10% and you'll see gas prices drop. In addition to that we need to open up the ANWR for drilling and off our coasts and the Gulf, as well as exploit the new found pools in the Wyoming Range (thanks again environmentalist) OR come up with an alternate fuel. Even if you had a viable economic alternative fuel source, the production and the distribution of it is decades away. Wake up people, cut back!|||1. 81% of Americans want to do it. Regardless of party affiliation.
2. Because it will lower the cost of gas.
3. Because it would help the popor and middle class.
4. Because the Daemoncrats don't give a darn about people, only power.

Even if it did happen, by the time it is said and done the House will have had to raise taxes elsewhere to cover this tax exemption and that means ticking off "someone" else who will ultimately say "no we don't want OUR taxes raised".

What does “we pour legislation into the senatorial saucer to cool it.” mean?
Hey! I was doing my history homework and one of the questions were... Thomas Jefferson questioned the role of the Senate in the 1790s. George Washington asked Jefferson: “Why did you pour that coffee into your saucer?” “To cool it,” said Jefferson. “Even so,” replied Washington, “we pour legislation into the senatorial saucer to cool it.” What is Washington trying to say about the Senate?
Please help me!
Thank You!|||The Senate was designed to be a slower legislative branch. The House of Representatives was meant to react to the passions of the people and be more populist. While the Senate was designed to moderate the House and provide more long term, well reasoned legislation develop.
So you could say Washington was making an analogy about the coffee representing heated debate coming from the House and cooling in the Senate before the President enjoys a cup of legislation. :) But that might be taking it farther than Washington intended.|||A bill debated upon is apt to be a more thought out one.

Businesses are regulated by the individual states and localities (counties or cities).
I don't know about how insurance works overseas. You should check with your insurance company.|||I don't think we have any sort of legislation on face painting in the US.|||i don't believe there is any legislation and if there is, it certainly isn't enforced. i would think you are already ahead of the face-painting game because of the insurance which most people wouldn't think about getting. have fun :)|||I would say that, mostly, you just need to make sure that nobody is allergic to any of your paints and that your paints come off quickly and easily -- from the body as well as clothes. As to your insurance being valid, the best thing to do would be to get a letter from your current insurance company.

Can African and poor people expect legislation that will favor the poor and not the wealthy?
The administration has proposed legislation that will only tax the wealthy. Historically, the Democratic and Republican parties have been made up of the wealthy class. So, my question again is, Can African and poor people expect legislation that will favor the poor and not the wealthy?|||The issues raised by the GEC has lead to an increase in global cohesion for the government and financial leaders addressing these problems. As a result, it can be expected that the international money system will become more aligned and balanced across all nations. For the poorer nations that join in on these discussions and play a part in the global community then the improvements will benefit these poor. For the nations that continue to do there own thing and ignore the global community, then their pain will continue.|||Laws should be written to encourage gaining wealth. The status of being poor is not a permanent requirement. Any law that is is written to "favor" the poor only encourages people to remain poor. A just and humane society should not let people starve or go homeless, but beyond minimal support, no other incentives to remain poor should exist. Incentives to gain wealth improves the life of an individual, along with the rest of society. As for legislation to benefit black people, that is a racist concept.

What major legislation have Democrats created which would help wildlife conservation?
I am currently finishing a college class on wildlife management and came across little, if any, major legislation pushed by liberals dealing with wildlife and habitat conservation. The majority has been done by Republicans. Just curious.|||That's where the term "conservative" came from. Republicans specialize in wildlife refuges, national parks and other land preservation.

BTW: your question makes perfect sense.|||In 2003 the Republicans tried to put in legislation to create an agency to to assume supervision of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
The new agency would have had the authority, which rested with Congress, to set one of the two capital-reserve requirements for the companies. It would have exercised authority over any new lines of business. And it would have determined whether the two are adequately managing the risks of their ballooning portfolios.
Barney Frank of Massachusetts, the ranking Democrat on the Financial Services Committee. said ''These two entities -- Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac -- are not facing any kind of financial crisis,''
And: ''The more people exaggerate these problems, the more pressure there is on these companies, the less we will see in terms of affordable housing.''

There you can find all sorts of things the Republicans tried to do but were blocked by Democrats like Barney Frank and Chris Dodd. You see the Republicans never had a super majority like the Democrats have enjoyed recently.
As far back as 2003 (maybe even further) Republicans and whistle-blowers were saying there were major problems with Fannie and Freddie. And you can see AND hear what the Democrats were saying about what a great job they were doing. And Republicans were just fear mongering.

BTW: your question makes perfect sense.|||In 2003 the Republicans tried to put in legislation to create an agency to to assume supervision of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
The new agency would have had the authority, which rested with Congress, to set one of the two capital-reserve requirements for the companies. It would have exercised authority over any new lines of business. And it would have determined whether the two are adequately managing the risks of their ballooning portfolios.
Barney Frank of Massachusetts, the ranking Democrat on the Financial Services Committee. said ''These two entities -- Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac -- are not facing any kind of financial crisis,''
And: ''The more people exaggerate these problems, the more pressure there is on these companies, the less we will see in terms of affordable housing.''
Well, time did tell did it not?|||You can find out more by searching YouTube (Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac) . There you can find all sorts of things the Republicans tried to do but were blocked by Democrats like Barney Frank and Chris Dodd.

Can Congress issue legislation that preempts a state law that has already been passed?
In other words, if Congress were to pass legislation that preempted states from passing immigration reform like Arizona did in SB 1070, would that preemption also apply to the Arizona bill that had already been passed? Or does preemption only relate to future state legislation?|||They surely can. Federal law always preempts state law retroactively or otherwise. In the Arizona case, however, it looks like this will be decided in the courts. I imagine Congress would be very wary about passing legislation to nullify this law.|||Federal law always overrides a state law.|||Yes, Congress can preempt state law, whether state law has already been passed or will be passed.
Your referral to the Arizona bill is a non-sequitur, though. The Arizona law is merely a recitation of the federal law, which most states and the federal government don't enforce through fear of the extremely loud Hispanic lobby.|||The only way they could do that is to amend the Constitution.
If Arizona is the cause for allowing this current Congress to write any Amendment to the Constitution--we should just give them back to Mexico and be done with it.|||Yes they can. However, those that say federal law always supersedes state law are wrong. And if a federal law is in conflict with an already established state law, then the states can challenge the federal law or they can bring their grievances up with the US Attorney General.
It's untrue that federal is always above state law, since the states coexist along with the national government as semi autonomous sovereign states. States do have delegated powers and rights granted to them in the US Constitution; although, these days it isn't paid much attention to.

How would you write legislation to make the growing of industrial cannabis legal and prosperous?
California's proposition 19 bid to legalize marijuana did not pass by a vote of 54% to 46%.
How much does this effect the ability to write and then pass legislation that makes the growing of industrial cannabis legal and profitable i.e. the grower does not need to have tall barbed wire fence and security system in order to grow a crop or other such restrictions.|||Use Industrial Hemp Cannabis.
Prop 19 has no impact or effect. Prop 19 did not include Hemp Cannabis.
California actually has allowances for Hemp. http://norml.org/index.cfm?wtm_view=%26amp;Gro鈥?/a>
I'd petition the US Attorney General to repeal the prohibition through the US Supreme Court and use the authority from Nixon to tell the FDA and DEA to remove it from the scheduled drug list.
The US AG has the power to direct the FDA to prove MJ needs to remain as a scheduled drug and enforce a limited time line.|||It will be the most prosperous absent regulation.

Is there a word for opposing new legislation by insisting on obnoxious amendments or extra clauses?
I know that there are lots of specific verbs in politics like gerrymandering for changing the shape of constituencies to make them unwinnable, or filibustering for talking so long that legislation is obstructed etc; but is there one for getting obnoxious clauses put into legislation, i.e. you say I will only vote for this bill if you put in this extra clause?|||One way to describe it is "Poison Pill".

What kind of legislation do you have about discipling your child?
In Australia the federal government are talking about passing legislation against smacking your children. They are spending large amount of money on advertising campaign. How do you feel about government telling you how to raise your children. This is not aimed at parents who abuse or bet their kids but everyday paddle on the bottom.|||In Minnesota, the law says any NON-ACCIDENTAL injury to a child constitutes "malicious punishment." I think that is a very reasonable standard.
I have heard any people say it's against the law to spank in th US, but they are wrong. Every state, except Minnesota, says parents may physically discipline children using "reasonable force." The language is too vague. I am unaware of any statute that defines "reasonable force."|||Here is our legislation on it in Oklahoma:
OKLAHOMA
Parents/teachers/other persons can use ordinary force as a means of discipline, including but not limited to spanking, switching, or paddling. 21 Sec. 844.[Cr.] Criminal penalty for using unreasonable force upon a child under 18. 10
Sec. 7115.[Cr.]|||In the USA we are not allowed to paddle our children. I don't like that the government in interfering with how we raise kids..I believe that is why so many are running ramp id. I believe that a child should know the boundaries and when they knowingly disobey them then they should be disciplined. Sometimes a time out just doesn't cut it. The Bible demands respect of parents, the government says that if you don't like what your parent says call us and we will take care of it.|||That's stupid. This is why my husband and I are going back to Saudi Arabia is becasue it's legal there for you to hit your children. They also hit your children in school if the children don't listen to their teacher. In the USA children can cry abuse if they're spanked by their parents.|||Amarica is pretty much the same way. It's not criminal YET to spank your child but i see it comming. In the state i live in you can be tosed into jail for taking a tv away from your child for punishment IF it was in their room. they call it emotional abuse. It's crazy. I would NEVER EVER beat my child but if he needs a butt spanking then he is going to get it. The GOV needs to but out of how we raise our kids. Unless it is REAL abuse (kid is walking around with bruses and stuff)|||I think it is none of the gov't's business.

How is enabling legislation different to delegated legislation?
Bit of Uni Business revision, unfortunately Law is one of my modules!
I wonder if anyone can help me get to grips with the following....
Most importantly, how is enabling legislation different to delegated legislation?
And could anyone give me a list of the sources of law?
Thanks in advance :)|||Delegated legislation (aka subsidiary legislation or secondary legislation) is legislation not made by parliament but under the authority of parliament.
There are 3 main types of delegated legislation, Bye-Laws, Statutory Instruments (SI's) and orders in council, an act of parliament usually known as the Parent or ENABLING act such as the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974. It lays down the framework for the law relating to the parent act.
Basically the Parent Act (aka Enabling) sets out the powers for more law to be made through the use of that act.
BYE LAWS:
Bye Laws are local laws which tend to be limited to a particular area, most bylaws are made by local authorities but other public and private bodies can eg. Military, Airport, Rail.
Bye laws are drawn up by relevant body and then approved by govt. minster responsible for that area of law such as the minister responsible for Local Govt.
The local govt. act 1972 gives local authorities the power to make bye laws to control nuisances, Section 235 gives power to make bye laws for "the good rule of govt. of the whole or part of the district or borough...and for the prevention and suppression of nuisances therein"
This might cover things like littering, parking, ball games, dog fouling, horse riding, or even skateboarding or playing music. Smoking on a train is a bye law as is trespassing on railway property and trespassing on military land (Parents Act: Military Lands act 1892)
SI's:
This is the most common form of delegated legislation, each SI contains large number of regulations and they are drawn up by govt. minsters under powers delegated by parliament, they are used to fill out the detail of the law when parliament does not have the time or expertise to do so, this is so it can be updated later on and changed on a regular basis, examples include environmental laws, planning laws and employment laws. 3500 SI's were passed in 2007.
The Road Traffic Act 1972 included requirement for a helmet to be worn on a bike but left it to Secretary of State to draw up detailed regulations as to the type of helmet. This was included in the Motor cycles (protective helmets) Regulations 1980 (an SI).
ORDERS IN COUNCIL:
Orders in Council are made by the privy council which was once the group of minsters who acted as chief advisers to the monarch, it is now made of past and present senior ministers and they make law, orders in council can be made to transfer powers between govt. depts or made make emergency laws in time of national crisis or when law needs to be passed quickly or if parliament is not sitting.
This parent act for this was The Emergency Powers Act 1920 and examples of its use include the foot and mouth crisis and the energy act 1976 (Reserve powers order 2000).
I shortened it as much as I could, hope it helps. Hope uni goes well, thinking of taking business there myself in a year. I missed some bits out but that's the main stuff.

The former can easily be fixed by getting out of iraq, helping people, equal treatment... no control orders where you are put under house arrest, unable to see friends having been chaged with no crime, having your life wrecked unable to go through courts, see what evidence is against you and unable to even protest.
With isreal kicked off stolen land and made to treat palestians as equals etc etc
fairs fair.
