The document discusses same-sex marriage developments around the world. It notes that Canada, Massachusetts, and California court rulings found bans on same-sex marriage unconstitutional. Legislation in some US states and countries like the Netherlands, Belgium, and South Africa have legalized same-sex marriage, while others like the UK offer civil partnerships. Internationally the trend is toward recognizing same-sex relationships, but Australia lags behind other liberal nations in this regard.
House Bill 956 proposes to prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity in issuing licenses and legal documents. The document opposes legalizing same-sex unions for several reasons: it could eliminate the role of marriage in procreation and child-rearing, restructure society by creating different relationship types, homosexual parenting is not the best environment for children, and there is no discrimination without injustice. The document argues the bill is unnecessary as existing laws already prohibit discrimination.
The document discusses a research project on same-sex marriage bans in Florida. It will examine the laws banning same-sex marriage, perspectives from psychology on why people support or oppose such bans, and how education could inform views. There are conflicts between laws guaranteeing equal rights and new bans, and between emotional responses and facts. The project aims to establish common ground by explaining how same-sex marriage expands equal rights without harming others.
This document discusses the debate around whether same-sex marriage should be legally recognized. It outlines the key arguments from both supporters and opponents. Supporters argue that banning same-sex marriage is a form of discrimination that violates civil rights, while opponents argue that legal recognition could undermine traditional marriage and family values. The document traces the history of the issue in courts and legislatures over recent decades, including state bans and legalization of same-sex marriage in some places. Public opinion appears to be shifting toward greater support for same-sex marriage rights.
Around 10% of the world's population is homosexual. Several countries in North and South America have legally recognized same-sex marriage, including Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil, Mexico, Canada, and the United States. The United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights states that everyone is entitled to rights and freedoms without discrimination based on factors like sex, religion, or social origin.
The document discusses the evolution of the gay marriage debate from 1999-2009. It summarizes Michael Warner's argument from his 1999 book that gay marriage would create a dual-class system and continue inequality. However, it notes that the 2003 Supreme Court decision in Lawrence v. Texas, which struck down sodomy laws, fundamentally changed the legal arguments around regulating relationships between consenting adults. The document also reviews the status of gay marriage and civil unions in various states in the decade since Warner's book was published.

This presentation was made in my legislative process class regarding the legislation of Proposition 8 in California. The presenter, named Tim, shouted down people wanting to debate his points, called me out in the back of the class as a homophobe, ignorant, white trash, wife beating, intolerant Republican, and proceeded to entail that Abraham Lincoln (who was married with 4 kids), President Buchanan, and JESUS CHRIST were all Homosexuals, all while admitting in a defensive posture that he had been "known to date men" from time to time. Any reasonable debate is out the window with this guy, much like Thomas Jefferson said, "If you argue with a fool, nobody watching will be able to tell the difference." Or maybe he was Gay too, I\'m not too sure. I had to leave the room because I was laughing too hard by the time he started referring to Jesus, the alleged Homosexual Vegetarian that the left LOVES!
This case involves seven same-sex couples who were denied marriage licenses and sued, arguing that New Jersey's marriage laws violated their equal protection and due process rights under the state constitution. The New Jersey Supreme Court held that same-sex couples are entitled to the same legal rights and benefits as married heterosexual couples but left it to the legislature to determine whether to amend marriage laws or create a separate statutory structure like civil unions. The court found no fundamental right to same-sex marriage under the state constitution but that denying benefits to same-sex couples violated equal protection. The legislature was given 180 days to comply. Chief Justice Poritz concurred in part and dissented in part.
While same-sex unions have long existed, same-sex couples are now gaining more legal recognition. In the U.S., the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy helped protect gays from discrimination in the military and President Obama overturned the Defense of Marriage Act to recognize same-sex marriages. However, barriers still exist as 29 states restrict marriage to opposite-sex couples and 37 have passed Defense of Marriage Acts. Proposed solutions to further gay rights have come from government agencies, religious groups, grassroots organizations, and changes to state and federal laws.
1) A lawsuit in California declared the state's ban on same-sex marriage unconstitutional, in an attempt to force a Supreme Court ruling that would legalize same-sex marriage nationwide. However, not all LGBT advocates supported this strategy, fearing an adverse Supreme Court decision.
2) While advocates want to win public support for same-sex marriage through ballot initiatives, they have so far been unsuccessful. Recent legislative victories in some states show progress, but achieving nationwide marriage equality through separate state laws is arduous.
3) The article argues that LGBT advocates must focus on strategies for winning ballot initiatives in order to achieve true social equality, as direct democracy will remain a key part of the political process for the foreseeable

The document discusses the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) which was enacted in 1996 and defines marriage as between one man and one woman. It argues DOMA is discriminatory and takes away over 1,000 federal benefits from same-sex couples. While supporters claim DOMA protects traditional marriage, the document argues there is no evidence legalizing same-sex marriage would undermine heterosexual marriages. It concludes that DOMA marginalizes the LGBT community and advocates for its repeal.
The document discusses same-sex marriage rights in the United States. It notes that currently only 6 out of 50 states allow same-sex marriage. Support for gay marriage breaks down along generational and political lines, with younger generations and Democrats more supportive. Those against gay marriage argue that allowing it would provide benefits like Social Security to gay couples that are currently denied. The document outlines the story of one gay couple denied these rights and examines both sides of the same-sex marriage debate.

This case summarizes the Supreme Court of Canada case involving Delwyn Vriend who was fired from his job for being gay and sued the provincial government for not protecting sexual orientation in human rights legislation. The case balanced individual rights to sue versus changing legislation to protect the collective gay community. While the government was willing to give Vriend his job back, it was not willing to alter the definition of discrimination in law. The case helped broaden acceptance of gays and lesbians in Canada.
National Defense Authorization Act 2012 Article Assignment Nullification by S...Wayne Williams
Article Assignment; Students will read the article on nullification and how South Carolina is pushing back against the NDAA 2012 using the 10th Amendment.
This document provides a comparative analysis of same-sex marriage in Canada, the United States, and Japan. In Canada, same-sex marriage is legally recognized and was first legalized at the provincial level. In the US, it is not recognized federally but is legal in some states and public opinion is shifting in favor. Japan recently allowed same-sex marriage for Japanese citizens marrying foreign partners where it is legal, representing progress among Asian nations. Attitudes toward same-sex marriage are changing globally due to social and legal developments as well as traditional and new media coverage of LGBT rights issues.
The Touro Law Center’s Work to Break the “School-to-Prison” Pipeline Nicholas Fortuna
Nicholas Fortuna is a managing partner at a law firm with 25 years of experience in complex litigation. He attended Touro Law Center, which has a program called the William Randolph Hearst Public Advocacy Center that connects law students with local nonprofits to work on pressing community issues. One such program is the Center for Restorative Practices, which aims to address the "school-to-prison pipeline" where minority students face criminalization and incarceration for minor infractions at disproportionate rates compared to white students. The Center provides advocacy and legal services to the minority juvenile community to seek alternatives to incarceration and expulsion.
This document summarizes the evolution of equal protection law in the United States since the 1896 Plessy v. Ferguson decision established the "separate but equal" doctrine. It discusses how the Supreme Court gradually strengthened the "equal" component of Plessy through cases like Missouri ex rel. Gaines v. Canada (1938) and Sweatt v. Painter (1950). It then covers how Brown v. Board of Education (1954) overturned Plessy as it applied to public education. The document also outlines the three tiers of scrutiny—rational basis, intermediate, and strict scrutiny—that the Court has used to evaluate equal protection claims. It concludes by focusing on three important affirmative action cases from the 1970s.

The document discusses key concepts and Supreme Court cases related to equality and segregation in the United States. It defines terms like suspect classification, separate but equal, Jim Crow laws, and de facto segregation. It also outlines the three levels of scrutiny used by courts to review laws - rational basis test, intermediate scrutiny, and strict scrutiny. Major Supreme Court cases discussed include Dred Scott, Plessy v. Ferguson, and Brown v. Board of Education.
This document discusses efforts by extremist organizations and the federal government to restrict access to and ownership of western lands. It advocates studying issues related to public lands, sharing information widely, and urging political leaders to compel Congress to transfer public lands to state ownership as it has done for other states. This is presented as the only solution that can adequately fund education, manage lands and forests, protect access, create jobs, and support economic growth. The document encourages individuals and organizations to contribute time and money to promote this cause.
This document summarizes key Supreme Court cases related to civil liberties and civil rights in the United States:
- Plessy v. Ferguson (1896): The Court upheld racial segregation and the "separate but equal" doctrine. Interracial marriage bans and school segregation were deemed constitutional.
- Brown v. Board of Education I (1954): The Court unanimously overturned Plessy and ruled that racial segregation in public schools was unconstitutional, even if facilities were equal.
- Brown v. Board of Education II (1955): The Court ordered desegregation to proceed "with all deliberate speed" and decisions to be made locally by school boards.
- Loving v. Virginia (1967): The Court unanimously
The document discusses white privilege and its existence in society. It argues that white privilege provides societal privileges and opportunities to Caucasians over people of color. The document examines studies that show discrimination still exists, especially within the criminal justice system, where whites receive more lenient treatment. It also discusses educational discrimination and "white flight" causing resegregation in schools. In conclusion, the document asserts that civil rights advances have been undermined and people of color still face discrimination through unequal treatment in the justice system and segregation in education.

1) The document examines the effects of mutations on the cAMP signaling pathway in Dictyostelium discoideum. When food is scarce, D. discoideum cells secrete cAMP to signal each other to aggregate.
2) It compares a wild type strain (AX3) to a mutant strain (RI-9) that is defective in cAMP receptor gene cARA. PCR and gel electrophoresis showed that RI-9 lacks expression of cARA, preventing it from sensing cAMP and aggregating.
3) The study also tested how different pH levels and chemicals affect AX3 development. AX3 grew best at pH 4.4 and showed higher aggregation and fruit

Moral, Legal, and Religious Perspectives on Social Justice. In Cha.docxmoirarandell
Moral, Legal, and Religious Perspectives on Social Justice. In Chapter 1 of your textbook, justice is analyzed from three perspectives, each with its own set of relevant concepts. The text includes three case studies for consideration from each perspective. Select one (only one) of these case studies as the focus of your initial post in this discussion. Then analyze the selected case study from the justice perspective which accompanies it and answer the following questions.
a. If you select “Case Study 1.1 – Jacob Little and Walmart,” analyze it from the perspective of justice as a moral concept. Your analysis must address the following questions:
§ Did Walmart offer Jacob a just wage? Why or why not?
§ Was the alderman’s decision to let Walmart operate in the city just? Why or why not?
§ If you were the alderman, what would you do to more fully promote justice in the situation? Why?
b. If you select “Case Study 1.2 – Just Desserts?,” analyze it from the perspective of justice as a legal concept.
§ Was the court’s sentence for Mr. Allen just? Why or why not?
§ Was the court’s sentence for Mr. Brown just? Why or why not?
§ If you were the judge presiding over both of these trials, what would you do to more fully promote justice in them? Why?
c. If you select “Case Study 1.3 – Honor the Sabbath or Keep Your Job,” analyze it from the perspective of justice as a religious concept.
§ Did Chief Gerst treat Corporal Brown justly? Why or why not?
§ Did Corporal Brown act justly after his agreement with Chief Gerst? Why or why not?
§ If you were the Chief of TSU’s Police department, what would you do to more fully promote justice in the situation? Why?
The Justice of Climate Change. In Chapter 1 of your textbook, the author identifies the possible causes and consequences of global warming/climate change as emerging issues loaded with implications for justice. He also analyzes the concepts of distributive justice, commutative justice, and retributive justice and suggests their relevance to conversations about how individuals, businesses, and nations should respond justly to evidence of global warming. These conversations are made more difficult by acrimonious debates about the quality of the scientific evidence that supports global warming hypotheses as well as the motives and integrity of various scientists on both sides of the issue. “Case Study 1.4 – Getting Warmer?” illustrates this problem.
Familiarize yourself with the debate highlighted in Case Study 1.4 by reviewing the required resources for this discussion. Then apply concepts of distributive justice, commutative justice, and retributive justice to answer the following questions.
a. How should the concept of distributive justice influence the response of the United States to evidence of global warming? Why?
b. How should the concept of commutative justice influence your response, as an individual, to evidence of global warming? Why?
c. How should the concept of retributive ju ...
The document discusses a proposal called the Fairness for All Act, which aims to find a compromise between LGBT nondiscrimination protections and religious exemptions. It proposes extensive nondiscrimination protections, but also carefully defined carve-outs for religious charities, schools, and small businesses. While rejected by activists on both sides, the authors argue it deserves closer consideration as it models an approach of negotiated compromise, as was successfully done in Utah. It could build new protections for LGBT Americans while affording new safeguards for religious institutions.
Jane Doe and Judy Roe, a same-sex couple in Michigan, each have children they adopted individually and now want to jointly adopt their children. They have questions about whether Michigan's adoption statute allowing only married or single individuals to adopt violates equal protection, and if the courts could interpret the statute to allow their joint adoption. The memo analyzes these issues, concluding that while an equal protection challenge would likely fail under rational basis review, the courts could interpret the statute liberally to allow the joint adoption, following other states' precedent. The circuit court would have jurisdiction over the case.
Jane Doe and Judy Roe, a same-sex couple in Michigan, each adopted children individually and now want to jointly adopt the children so they can be a legal family. However, Michigan law restricts adoption to married or single individuals, excluding unmarried couples like Jane and Judy. They have asked lawyers to determine if they can challenge this law. The lawyers analyze whether the law violates equal protection rights and which court could hear the case. They find the law will likely be upheld under a rational basis test since the state only needs a rational reason for the classification. Precedent from other states offers some guidance on these issues.
This document argues that gay marriage should be legalized in the United States to provide equal rights to all couples. It discusses how only a few states currently recognize same-sex marriage, despite many court rulings finding bans on gay marriage to be unconstitutional. The document also examines the history of the gay rights movement and highlights several reasons why making gay marriage legal nationwide could benefit society, such as boosting the economy and reducing the number of children in orphanages. While public support for same-sex marriage is growing, discrimination still exists through policies like the Defense of Marriage Act that deny federal recognition of gay marriages. Overall, the document makes the case that legalizing gay marriage nationwide is an important step toward equal treatment under the law.

This document is a complaint filed by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in United States District Court challenging the constitutionality of Section 3 of the federal Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). The complaint argues that Section 3 of DOMA, which defines marriage for federal purposes as between one man and one woman, exceeds congressional authority and violates principles of federalism by interfering with Massachusetts' sovereign right to define marriage within its borders. The complaint seeks declaratory and injunctive relief prohibiting the enforcement of Section 3 against Massachusetts.

Learning Goals
By the end of this chapter, you will be able to do the following:
· 2.1 Describe the framework of the U.S. legal system
· 2.2 Describe alternative legal routes for complaints against an employer’s employment practices
· 2.3 Explain the two major legal theories of unfair employment discrimination
· 2.4 Understand the major legal principles that define key civil rights laws
· 2.5 Identify the six exemptions to Title VII coverage
· 2.6 Define sexual harassment and identify preventive steps employers should take
· 2.7 Know when you can and cannot justify “English-only” rules in the workplace
· 2.8 Understand how to prevent age-discrimination claims when downsizing or terminating workers for cause
Comprehensive employment-related legislation, combined with increased motivation on the part of individuals to rectify unfair employment practices, makes the legal aspects of employment among the most dominant issues in human resource management today. All three branches of the federal government have been actively involved in ongoing efforts to guarantee equal employment opportunity (EEO) as a fundamental individual right, regardless of race, color, age, gender, religion, national origin, or disability.
All aspects of the employment relationship, including initial screening, recruitment, selection, placement, compensation, training, promotion, and performance management, have been addressed by legislative and executive pronouncements and by legal interpretations from the courts. With growing regularity, I/O psychologists and HR professionals are being called on to work with attorneys, the courts, and federal regulatory agencies. It is imperative, therefore, to understand thoroughly the rights as well as obligations of individuals and employers under the law and to ensure that these are translated into everyday practice in accordance with legal guidelines promulgated by federal regulatory agencies. Affirmative action involves a proactive examination of whether equality of opportunity exists. If it does not, a plan is implemented for taking concrete measures to eliminate the barriers and to establish true equality (Society for Human Resource Management, 2016b). Affirmative action has become a fact of modern organizational life. To ignore it is to risk serious economic, human, and social costs.
Every public opinion poll based on representative national samples drawn between 1950 and the present shows that a majority of Americans—black, brown, and white—support EEO and reject differential treatment based on race, regardless of its alleged purposes or results. There is agreement about the ends to be achieved, but there is disagreement about the means to be used (Von Drehle, 2003). EEO has been, and is still, an emotionally charged issue. Congress has provided sound legal bases for effecting changes in EEO through sweeping civil rights legislation. Subsequently, thousan ...

Over 600,000 frozen embryos are stored in the United States, some of which are subject to embryo adoption agreements that transfer embryos from one party to another for implantation. These agreements have led to legal disputes about the legal status of embryos and whether they can be adopted. One such dispute, McLaughlin v. Lambert, is described in an article that discusses issues of commutative justice related to embryo adoption contracts and how principles of broader social contracts may influence the interpretation of specific contracts.

Pressured by assignments? Let experts at

In Chapter 2, the author urges students to “look at justice
through the lens of reason” by developing “frameworks that
permit careful analysis and evaluation of competing views”
(Dreisbach, 2013, Section 2.1). He provides an example of such
a framework by analyzing how the concept of justice varies
when viewed from the different perspectives of family,
community, state, and nation. In this discussion, you will apply
this framework to analyze justice issues arising from demands
for the legalization of a traditionally prohibited behavior in the
United States – same-sex marriage. Before responding, carefully
read the discussion question below:
According to the revised 2010 Census, in the United States there
were 131,729 same-sex married couple households and 514,735
same-sex unmarried partner households. As of December 2012:
a. Thirty-eight states have state constitutional provisions or other
laws restricting marriage to one man and one woman;
b. Nine states and the District of Columbia issue marriage
licenses to same-sex couples;
c. One state recognizes marriages by same-sex couples legally
entered into in another jurisdiction;
2. superbessaywriters.com
d. Eight states provide the equivalent of state-level spousal
rights to same-sex couples (civil unions) within the state; and
e. Two states provide some state-level spousal rights to same-
sex couples within the state (e.g., domestic partnerships,
designated beneficiaries).
Consequently, in at least 30 states same-sex couples are denied
the many legal and economic benefits that are available to
married heterosexual couples. Additionally, in 1996 Congress
enacted and President Bill Clinton signed the Defense of
Marriage Act (DOMA) which:
a. Defines marriage, for the purpose of receiving federal legal
and economic benefits, as the legal union of one man and one
woman; and
b. Permits a state not to recognize a marriage legally entered in
another state between persons of the same sex.

Analyze both the distributive and commutative justice of this
complex situation from each of these different perspectives:
a. A same-sex couple who was legally married in one state but
whose private sector jobs require them to live in another state
that legally restricts marriage to traditional hetero couples.
b. The highly urbanized and socially liberal community, in
which that same-sex couple lives, where the city government
grants city employees who are registered domestic partners
3. superbessaywriters.com
(regardless of sex) the insurance and other fringe-benefits it
grants to legally married (heterosexual) couples.
c. The mostly rural state where they live, which some observers
characterize as being part of the “Bible-belt”.
d. The nation of the United States of America which is governed
by President Barack Obama who has instructed his Department
of Justice to not defend DOMA when its constitutionality is
challenged in the federal courts (several of which have held
parts of the law to be unconstitutional).
