Minimum Wage Bill, 2007.
An analysis on bill H.R.5970, based on a USA Today article, "Senate Rejects GOP Estate Tax, Minimum Wage Bill."

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The paper discusses how the Senate recently voted down a bill that would have raised minimum wage but would have also lowered estate taxes. The paper examines how, by linking two oppositional tax-related issues, the bill, H.R.5970, polarized the Senate along party lines. The paper explores how an estate tax cut favors the wealthiest Americans who own multi-million dollar estates, whereas the minimum wage hike would directly affect the working poor. The paper concludes that most of the Senate's Republicans favored the bill because of the estate tax cut implications, whereas most Democrats would have favored the bill only if it focused exclusively on raising the minimum wage.
From the Paper
"Democrats oppose an estate tax cut in part for the same reasons they favor a minimum wage increase. Estate tax revenues can potentially be huge: capital gains taxes currently run about 15%. Yet only the wealthiest Americans benefit from estate tax cuts and Americans who would qualify are in the vast minority. The vast majority of Americans, on the other hand, might benefit from an increase in minimum wages. Only the tiniest percentage of Americans own multi-million dollar estates while a substantial portion of Americans earn close to the minimum wage."

"Before exploring the more complex issues involved, it is necessary to understand the general intentions of the Patients' Bill of Rights. Numerous bills involving patients' rights have been presented to the House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate. Discussed in this paper are the most pertinent bills specific to the Patients' Bill of Rights: the 1998 Patients' Bill of Rights, H.R. 3605 and S. 1890; the Bipartisan Patient Protection Act of 2001, S. 1052, S. 872, and H.R. 526; and the 2005 Patients' Bill of Rights, H.R. 2259, H.R. 2650, and S. 1012. In general, federal legislation that safeguards patients' rights is supported by both major political parties and the President, and also has considerable public appeal (Chavez, 2001, 606; Chaddock, 2001, 1)."

Conclusion
From the Paper
"Much of the opposition centers how these laws will limit opportunities for United States citizens and legal residents. For many low-income American families, state universities present the only option for higher education. Because many state universities are already limiting enrollment, groups like the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) contend that ?when public universities admit an illegal immigrant and provide subsidized tuition, some other student who is also deserving is denied an opportunity? (FAIR Issue Brief). These alien students, in effect, will gain an education at the expense of legal American residents or citizens."

The Bill of Rights, 2008.
This paper explores the United States' Bill of Rights that defines the individual's rights.
1,165 words (approx. 4.7 pages), 4 sources, APA, $ 40.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The paper explains the sense of urgency in the US in defining the rights of the individual during the turn of the eighteenth century that led to the formation of the Bill of Rights. The paper looks at the expanse of freedoms described in the Bill of Rights, as well as its susceptibility to change. The paper discusses how, although the Bill of Rights remains vulnerable to critique, it likewise remains open to improvement. The paper maintains that it is this quality above all others that shows the pragmatism and vision of the Bill's original composers and provides outlet for those same qualities in future leaders.
From the Paper
"As the United States emerged into independence, it found itself at a crossroads in history. Drawing away from the imperialist authority of its monarchical forebears by using academically articulated and militarily pursued principles of philosophical 'rightness,' the new Union had a responsibility to live up to the potentially evolutionary but essentially hypothetical conceptions of its rhetoric. The Articles of the Confederacy, which had initially proscribed balanced authority to the nation and its individual states, would ultimately be supplanted by the United States Constitution, which was designed to improve federal power. The adjustment had been deemed necessary to establish the ability to earn national revenue, maintain a competent standing army and forge coherent legal standards."

"Without question, Bill Evans is one of the greatest musicians of all time. He has been called a "poet of the piano" because of the incredible sensitivity and lyricism he brought to jazz piano playing, and also because of the complexity, richness, and sophistication he brought to jazz harmonies . During his twenty-five year career in the post-bop era, spanning from 1955-1980, he recorded over seventy albums, both as a sideman for other artists and as a leader of his own ensembles. Bill Evans' music touched fans from all over the world because he played on extensive concert tours, both within the United States and abroad. He also received accolades from critics and the public alike, winning the Down Beat Critic's Poll five times, six Grammy awards for his albums, the Melody Maker award in 1968, and Scandinavia's Edison Award and Japan's Swing Journal award in 1969."

Bill of Rights, 2005.
An overview of the U.S. Bill of Rights and a summary of some of the amendments.

Abstract
The Bill of Rights was ratified into the United States Constitution in 1791. The Bill consists of 10 amendments and was created to define the liberties of the people of the United States that the government could not infringe upon. This paper provides a brief history of the Bill of Rights before delving into several of the amendments incorporated into the Bill, including the First, Sixth and Eighth Amendments.
From the Paper
"The Eighth Amendment prevents the government from imposing excessive bail or fines and says cruel or unusual punishments shall not be inflicted (Lowi & Ginsburg, 2000). In this case, we can see that it takes the power of the government to punish criminals but, at the same time, it adds restrictions to that power. All of these examples show that the Bill of Rights expresses civil liberties; liberties that are for the people, and states that the government cannot take action that would go against or infringe upon on these rights."

Outline:
Introduction
Fourth Amendment
Fifth Amendment
Sixth Amendment
Seventh Amendment
Eighth Amendment
Modifying the Eighth Amendment
Conclusion
From the Paper
"Upon founding a new country, we would insist that this right be kept. It is necessary for there to be a system that embraces due process. A speedy and public trial will ensure that the accused doen not spend an unreasonable time in jail prior to trial. This could be considered torture, especially if the accused is innocent."
"The Sixth Amendment is a right that allows for all people to be considered equal under that law until proven otherwise. When determining whether to take a man or a woman's right to life and liberty, there has to be a strict standard that is followed to ensure that those rights are not taken away unnecessarily."

Australia and a Bill of Rights, 2004.

Abstract
This paper explains that many experts believe the Australian constitutional system, which is based on the colonial English administrative model, is too limited and confusing; therefore, the American Bill of Rights system, which would list the basic rights of an individual and would force the government to treat the individual within the limits set by this system, is now preferred. The author points out that opponents to the enactment of a Bill of Rights in Australia have vociferously asserted that the federal parliament has the power to enact laws, which amounts to provisions envisaged in a formal Bill of Rights; however, past instances have shown that the commitment of the lawmakers in Australia is not fully sympathetic to the cause of the underprivileged. The paper relates that a formal Bill of Rights would lighten the load on the judiciary and give it a framework by which important cases relating to human rights could be decided because the courts are not always in a position to protect basic rights, as they themselves operate under many restrictions.
From the Paper
"It is interesting to note that the founding fathers of the constitution of Australia openly rejected the proposal for a bill of rights. Since the Australian constitution was based on the British and the American system, it was only natural that a proposal for inducting a bill of rights was made. However, the proposal was rejected outright because the people who drafted the constitution of Australia felt that such a move would put the government into a great disadvantage. They felt that the provisions of the bill of rights would prevent them from invoking laws against the aboriginals and the Chinese who were discriminated against in this country. Hence, it is quite evident that the bill of rights was rejected as a legal option out of the fear of the loss of influence of the government. That the bill of rights was prevented from gaining entry into the executive branches of the constitution proves that the white dominated majority wanted to maintain their dominance over the natives as well as people of foreign origin. This is an unfortunate example of the total lack of commitment by a legal framework that should have ideally considered all citizens equally."

Assembly Bill 2403, 2005.
A look at Assembly Bill 2403, introduced by Assembly Member Jackson, regarding the right to personal privacy.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper, written as though it were a speech being delivered by the author, begins with a discussion of the notion of privacy and then takes a look at Assembly Bill 2403 and how it relates to an individual's right to privacy and the enforcement of that privacy. The paper explains how Assembly Bill 2403 differs from previous legislation that has come before it regarding an individual's right to privacy, and then looks at what the author perceives to be the inherent weaknesses of the bill, as well as some of its advantages.
From the Paper
"I have quoted almost this entire opening paragraph of the bill because I want to underline the fundamental difference between existing legislation in the privacy domain and this bill, with everything it brings new. As we can see, in order for an act to be considered a privacy invasion, the sexual intent OR the intent to invade one?s privacy needed to exist. In my opinion, both intents can only greatly limit the legislative area of applicability. Indeed, the intent to invade one?s privacy is rather ambiguous: in my opinion, this is rather hard to prove, because one can always say he had no intent to invade privacy. As for the sexual intent, this is also rather limiting, because it strictly mentions filming the body or the undergarments of another person. Thus, there are so many cases that will actually evade the law in question."

The Brady Bill, 2006.

Abstract
This paper examines the purpose of the Brady Bill which imposes background checks on potential weapons buyers, along with a minimum five-day waiting period on all handgun purchases in the U.S. It also looks at the tremendous political and financial efforts exerted by the National Rifle Association (NRA) in an attempt to defeat the bill as well as the arguments that favor the Brady Bill.
From the Paper
"In 1981, John Hinckley walked into a Dallas pawnshop, purchased an inexpensive "Saturday Night Special." With no questions asked and no waiting period to hinder his acquisition, he walked out a few minutes later with a brand new weapon. Six months later, on March 3rd, Hinckley attempted to assassinate President Ronald Reagan by firing several rounds from his purchased weapon. Along with the president, then-White House Press Secretary James Brady was felled by one of the bullets. Brady was severely injured and now remains in a wheelchair, suffering from paralysis in various portions of his body. Because of the assassination attempt and the injury to Brady, a federal waiting period for the purchasing of firearms became a hotly debated issue. Dubbed the "Brady Bill" ? after the assassination attempt's most serious victim ? background checks would be imposed on potential buyers along with a minimum five day waiting period on all handgun purchases in the United States."

Abstract
This paper explains why Illinois General Assembly Bill HB0759 was proposed, who championed the bill and what changes have been made to this piece of legislation. The paper is of the opinion that this bill is an exemplary one insofar as it seeks to protect the most vulnerable members of Illinois society.
From the Paper
"Naturally enough, it is vital that any reader have a solid understanding of just what bill HB0759 entails. For one thing, the original bill, as introduced, amends the state Children and Family Services Act by providing that every eligible child with a diagnosis of a mental illness shall receive mental health services. More specifically, the bill calls for the state Department of Child and Family Services (DCFS) to assess each mental health community network in the State to ascertain what needs to be done in order for each network to provide appropriate mental health services for vulnerable children. At the same time, the bill mandates that the Department of Child and Family Services (DCFS) must submit a report detailing the department's assessment of the health community networks as well as a plan outlining the identified needs; this plan must be submitted to the Governor and to the General Assembly."
