Should Prop 13 be Repealed

There has been four major law change that affect the way that california is the way today.The first of the four changes is term limits, they change this rule so that there would be no more career politician , but that not the case. In the old rule term limits rules you were allowed to be in the senate for 6 terms and in the assembly for 3 term. Now the term limits you get 12 terms not matter where you are. This new system bring in a lot of advantage, and little disadvantage but there is always false in every system. The advantage to is that it helps to bring in new idea and people that can see thing different. But there also a disadvantage to this by bring in new blood ,we are taking about the season professional that know what they are

The 13th Amendment says “Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States.” (Doc C) Although many years later African Americans still were not being treated like people, abolishing slavery was a big step to the stop of harsh treatment toward African Americans. The citizenship, and the right to vote are granted to African Americans by the 14, and 15 Amendments. The passing of these Amendments insured that the African Americans are people.

Issued by Abraham Lincoln, the Emancipation Proclamation set all slaves, under Confederate control, free, and armed black troops for the Civil War. A year later, beginning in September of 1864, Maryland, Tennessee, Missouri, and Louisiana abolished slavery. Shortly after, approved by Congress in February of 1865 and ratified in December, the Thirteenth Amendment was official. This amendment abolished slavery throughout the entire Union, which finally freed Kentucky and Delaware slaves. The war started as a fight to preserve the Union, but the new amendment went to show that the war had shifted to a fight to end slavery. The Thirteenth Amendment resulted in the abolition of slavery permanently. Although this freedom did not mean equality. Northern African Americans had been battling for their civil rights before and after the war. They were petitioning and campaigning at the state level, and created the National Convention of Colored Men and the National Rights League at the national level. None of these had as big of an impact as when the Radical republicans in Congress got involved to help overturn the inequalities.

This proposition had an effect because other states saw that California taxpayers had passed this into vote so they also decided to put this to vote and passed this in other states because they too were fed us with the government misusing their tax dollars.

Argument found in 13th: 13th states a problem about our 13th amendment claiming that everyone is free to their freedom but in all reality African Americans are still being targeted and put in prisons and treated like slaves for no reason.

I am against Bill C-14 which has been ratified into Canadian law on the basis that it is unconstitutional. Every Canadian has the right, just by virtue of having Canadian citizenship, to have sovereignty over their own self. Because Bill C-14 will in some circumstances permit people to take the life of another, it undermines the individual's right to have complete ownership over his/her own body, and is therefore unconstitutional.

James Madison, primary author of the Bill or Rights and a Representative, introduced 20 amendments on June 8, 1789. The House of Representatives passed 17 amendments, and then they were sent to the Senate for approval. The Senate in turn altered the 17 amendments into 12 articles. During the 1789 Joint Resolution of Congress, Congress agreed on the 12 amendments. It was then necessary that three-fourths of the states formulated their approval. At that moment, the tenth amendment was previously numbered as the twelfth article. However, since two of the articles were not ratified, the remaining articles were then renumbered and thus, the Tenth Amendment was born on December 15, 1791 with its inclusion in the Bill of Rights.

I am going to discuss how the reconstruction era prompted the thirteenth, fourteenth, and fifteenth amendments and say what the amendments are and why they are important.

One of the laws created in the Compromise of 1850 was allowing California to be a free state. This allowed other territories including Utah and New Mexico to be determined by popular sovereignty (Doc

“The 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments were put into the Constitution to give equality to African Americans.”(Reconstruction Amendments, n.d.) Each Amendment came after each other for different reasons: 13th Amendment was made to abolish slavery, 14th Amendment stated that everyone born in the United States is a U.S citizen, and no one can be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due of process, and equal rights to all people, and the 15th Amendment prevents the denial of a citizen’s vote by race, color, or slavery. The amendments took place during Reconstruction(1866-1877). “This occurred after the North defeated the South in the Civil War to bring the country back together.”(Reconstruction (1866-1877), n.d.) There was debate about how much should the South be punished for leaving the North. The Reconstruction Amendments were there to fix the issue. The Reconstruction Amendments are the most important amendments because they are there to fix the problems involving the North and the South, give equal rights to African Americans, and has a lot to offer in terms of rights.

The specific part of the Constitution that was involved was the Thirteenth Amendment and the Fourteenth Amendment. These two amendments held great power but unfortunately did not overpower the law. As a result of the Thirteenth Amendment, discrimination done in public areas had no relevance to the prohibition of slavery. The Thirteenth Amendment was established to prohibit slavery to people; however, it did not apply to these cases. These actions were due to the acts of discrimination of private businesses and their own doings. In Constitutional Law: Principles and Practice Hames & Ekern states, “Parties in the Civil Rights Cases also argued that the Thirteenth Amendment authorized Congress to enact the law in question. Plaintiffs argued that

United States was established to abolish aspects of slavery and the involuntary servitude unless it was a punishment for a crime. The amendment was passed by the Senate on the 8th of April in 1864 in Congress and the House in 1865. By the 6th of December in 1865, the amendment was already ratified by the mandated number of states and later that month the Secretary of the State proclaimed its adoption. The 13th Amendment was the first of the three Reconstruction Amendments established following the American Civil War. Since the period of the American Revolution, the American states were divided into states that continued to practice slavery and those that prohibited the act. However, the aspect of slavery was implicitly allowed in original provisions of the American constitution in the Article 1 that was recognized as the Three-Fifths Compromise. It detailed that every slave country’s enslaved population would be counted into the total population because of the apportioning seats America’s House of Representatives and the taxes among states. The research paper focuses on analyzing the 13th Amendment to the USA Constitution and critical analysis of its effectiveness.

The gold rush gave California a huge surplus of population and it quickly became a state. The debate of making it a slave or a free state became important. The Mexican Secession was the first time that a state was being accepted without being in a pair. Either

Proposition 1 is a water bond proposition that seeks to reinstate the states water shortage. Voting yes for Proposition 1 is the most logical choice because there is nothing more important than water. Voting yes would bring safe drinking water, upgrade water programs and improve water recycling projects. Without Proposition 1 California's economy and its citizens well being would collapse. Vote Prop 1 for safe and reliable water.

Article Five of the United States Constitution primarily describes the process whereby the constitution itself may be altered. Altering the constitution consist of proposing an amendment or a subsequent ratification. Article Five therefore explanatory shows two ways the constitution may be amended. One that has been mainly used for all of the amendments throughout our constitution, where the amendment is adopted by congress (i.e. Senate and House of Representatives i.e. Legislative Branch) with a vote of two-thirds of both houses or the other which has been only used once where they threw out the article of confederation and adopted the constitution itself being a constitutional convention (E.g. The Convention of Philadelphia) with the requirement
