170-406: A thesis on The Anatomy of Dirty Words . Throughout the 1960s, Cory remained one of the most conservative members of the Mattachine Society , and opposed the rejection of the "sickness theory" of homosexuality by some homophile leaders. His belief was that homosexuality was "a disturbance" that probably arose as a result of a pathological family situation. Around this time, Sagarin met Barry Sheer,

204-499: Is generally done when a law is no longer effective, or it is shown that a law is having far more negative consequences than were originally envisioned. If a campaign for the repeal of a particular law gains particular momentum, an advocate of the repeal might become known as a "repealer". The Repeal Association in 19th-century Ireland advocated Irish independence through repeal of the Acts of Union 1800 . Many repeals without replacement are

238-516: Is normally referred to as revocation rather than repeal in the United Kingdom and Ireland . Under the common law of England and Wales , the effect of repealing a statute was "to obliterate it completely from the records of Parliament as though it had never been passed." This, however, is now subject to savings provisions within the Interpretation Act 1978 . In parliamentary procedure ,

272-423: Is used in a committee , RONR requires a two-thirds vote unless all committee members who voted for the motion to be rescinded or amended are present or have received ample notice; in which case a majority vote is required. Under The Standard Code of Parliamentary Procedure , a repeal or amendment of something already adopted requires only the same vote (usually a majority) and notice that was needed to adopt it in

306-485: The Interpretation Act 1889 , and before 1953 all Statute Law Revision Acts contained a different general savings provision deemed the Westbury saving , which has now fallen out of use. Similar provisions exist in the law of Ireland and other common law countries. In meetings of a deliberative assembly, the motions to rescind (or "repeal" or "annul") and amend something previously adopted are used to change action that

340-521: The United Kingdom , was partially repealed in 1922, when (as a consequence of the 1921 Anglo-Irish Treaty ), twenty-six of the thirty-two counties of Ireland were constituted as the Irish Free State , and ceased to form part of the United Kingdom.

408-558: The Mattachine Society. The loss of the presidency, and his difference in beliefs from other members of the Society, resulted in a disparity that directly influenced his education. Sagarin entered New York University 's PhD program in sociology, graduating in 1966, submitting a dissertation titled "Structure and Ideology in an Association of Deviants", which was a study of the Mattachine Society. He did not, however, reveal his involvement in

442-458: The U.S. Code (including the title, chapter, part, section, paragraph and clause). In this way, Congress (and the president) must follow the same rules and procedures for passing any law. When statutes are repealed, their text is simply deleted from the Code and replaced by a note summarizing what used to be there. Once deleted, the repealed statute no longer has the force of law. All repeals of parts of

476-595: The US Code are, therefore, express repeals. Implied repeal occurs where two statutes are mutually inconsistent. The effect is that the later statute repeals the earlier statute pro tanto (in so far as it is inconsistent). As past and future parliaments are equally sovereign, later parliaments can carry out implied repeal of earlier statute by passing an inconsistent statute, but inconsistency needs to be established before implied repeal can occur. Repeals can be with or without savings. A repeal without savings eliminates

510-464: The United States that discussed homosexual politics and sympathetically presented the plight of homosexuals. Sagarin described how homosexuals were discriminated against in almost all aspects of their lives and called for a repeal of anti-homosexuality laws; One great gap separates the homosexual minority from all others, and that is its lack of recognition, its lack of respectability in the eyes of

544-589: The area is being updated but the law being repealed needs to be replaced with one suitable for the modern era. Re-enactment can be with or without amendment, although repeal and re-enactment without amendment normally occurs only in the context of a consolidation bill (a bill to consolidate the law in a particular area). For example, the repeal of the Poor Laws in England in 1948 reflected their replacement by modern social welfare legislation. A repeal without replacement

578-454: The attitudes that differed when Sagarin used either of his identities, led to the comparison of Sagarin/Cory to the Dr. Jekyll/Mr Hyde character. Mr. Cory, who presented homosexuals as a despised minority, was seen as a "mythic hero", where Dr. Sagarin (as he would later be known) was a "hunchback deviant". The publication of the book was considered a "radical step", as it was the first publication in

612-404: The entire proposal and leaving nothing remaining. It is not in order when the question can be reached by a motion to reconsider. Once legislation has been actually enacted, it is too late to rescind. The vote required to rescind is the same as would be required to repeal the act which it sought to rescind (usually a majority). The motion to rescind and expunge from the minutes is used to express

646-402: The first place. This book states, "As a general rule, fewer than a majority should not be authorized to decide anything, and more than a majority should not be required for most decisions"; the book further states that the problem with situations in which a supermajority is required is that "the minority, not the majority, controls." In legislative bodies, the motion to rescind is used for much

680-505: The homophile movement" for asserting that gay men and lesbians deserved civil rights as members of a large, unrecognised minority . However, Vern L. Bullough believes the title is undeserved as Sagarin did not actively participate in resistance and did not join any homophile organisations until 1962, a time when he was seeking a topic to analyse in his thesis. Sagarin was born in Schenectady, New York , to Russian Jewish parents. Sagarin

714-603: The idea that homosexuality was a natural sexual variant, and criticised the new psychological and sociological studies of Evelyn Hooker and John Gagnon . However, he argued that homosexuality should be decriminalized. The real identity of Sagarin's persona, Donald Webster Cory, remained unknown until a 1974 convention of the American Sociological Association in Montreal. On a panel entitled "Theoretical Perspectives on Homosexuality", Sagarin levelled criticism at

748-463: The liberationist scholarship, and in response, Laud Humphreys exposed Sagarin by calling him "Mr. Cory". After the convention, Sagarin withdrew from issues concerning homosexuality.

816-485: The president, or Congress overrides a presidential veto, the various provisions contained within the newly enacted law are rearranged according to their policy content and cataloged in the United States Code —a compilation of the general and permanent federal laws of the United States. To repeal any element of an enacted law, Congress must pass a new law containing repeal language and the codified statute's location in

850-507: The public, and even in the most advanced circles. A research report by Alfred Kinsey et al. , Sexual Behavior in the Human Male (1948), had a beneficial effect on the reception of Sagarin's publication. In 1952, due to the success of The Homosexual in America: A Subjective Approach , Sagarin established a subscription book service called " Cory Book Service ", which chose a gay-themed literary work each month. The Cory Book Service played

884-481: The repealed statute completely. A repeal with savings preserves the effect of the repealed statute for limited purposes, such as preventing the reversal of any repeals contained within it, or ensuring that rights granted under its authority are retained. In England and Wales, sections 15 to 17 and 19(2) of the Interpretation Act 1978 set out general savings for all repeals. These re-enact similar provisions from

918-410: The requirements for changing a previous action are greater than those for taking the action in the first place. A motion to rescind, repeal, annul or amend something already adopted requires a two-thirds vote , a majority vote with previous notice , or a vote of a majority of the entire membership , any one of which would suffice. Demeter's Manual imposes a similar requirement. When this motion

952-466: The result of significant changes in society . Major examples include: The repeal of a statute may be either express or implied . Express repeal occurs where express words are used in a statute to repeal an earlier statute. They are now usually included in a table in a schedule to the statute, for reasons of convenience. In the United States, when a bill is passed by the House and Senate and signed by

986-420: The same purpose as the motion to reconsider ; many court decisions treat the two motions as one motion. However, in legislative contexts, it is not the same as a motion to repeal. The difference between rescind and reconsider is that the motion to rescind is ordinarily applied to actions that have been taken and are already in effect. It has been described as being in the nature of a motion to amend by striking out

1020-476: The society as Cory. His acceptance of the position of assistant professor at Baruch College , a campus of City University of New York, led some to characterise it as the beginning of his rise to "giant in the field of sociological deviance" and the recession of his part in the homophile movement. In the 1970s, Sagarin pursued an active homosexual life, though he continued to characterise homosexuals as disturbed, and frequently urged them to seek therapy. He rejected

1054-451: The strongest disapproval about action previously taken by a deliberative assembly. Using Roberts Rules of Order Newly Revised , this motion requires a vote of a majority of the entire membership. Using The Standard Code of Parliamentary Procedure , the motion to expunge requires a majority vote (of those voting). The secretary does not erase the expunged motion, but draws a line around it, marks it "expunged by order of this assembly," gives

Upon his return to New York, he enrolled at City College of New York , but was forced to drop out of college due to the Great Depression . In 1934, Sagarin met Gertrude Liphshitz, a woman who shared his left-wing political interests. They married in 1936 and soon after, Gertrude gave birth to

1156-415: Was taken. They are two forms of the same incidental main motion and they follow the same rules. A motion to postpone an event or action previously scheduled is a particular case of the motion to amend something previously adopted.
