	Twenty-fifth Amendment of the Constitution (Protec
		The point that needs to be addressed is that, first, Ireland is already in difficulties because of the restrictive nature of the constitutional limitations regarding a woman's right to life.
		In 1983 a short amendment to the Constitution appeared to be watertight, but on its first challenge, to the surprise of those who proposed and supported the amendment, the Supreme Court ruling in the X case showed that was not the case.
		On amendment No. 13, tabled by Deputy McManus, the bottom line is that the Act makes it clear what does and what does not constitute abortion for the purposes of the Act and section 2(1) is intended to be interpreted having regard to the definitions and exclusions contained in section 1 of the Act.

	Legislative history of the 25th Amendment of the Constitution (Protection of Human Life in Pregnancy) Bill, 2001
		The purpose of the Twenty-fifth Amendment of the Constitution (Protection of Human Life in Pregnancy) Bill is to provide for the amendment of the Constitution to state that the proposed Protection of Human Life in Pregnancy Act, 2002, shall be the law on abortion in the State.
		states that the amendment of the Constitution effected by the Act shall be called the Twenty-fifth Amendment of the Constitution and that the Act may be cited as the Twenty-fifth Amendment of the Constitution (Protection of Human Life in Pregnancy) Act, 2001.
		The procedure for the insertion of the amendment into the Constitution is expressed to be “notwithstanding” Article 46, as otherwise it would have been necessary to hold a second referendum under the provisions of that Article.

	Twenty-fifth Amendment of the Constitution (Protec
		The first case in this paper was the case of a woman who having taken an overdose of paracetamol was admitted in a coma during the first trimester of pregnancy.
		The final sentence says "There is nothing in the proposed amendment or in the envisaged legislation which would render it illegal for a health board to assist a woman to travel outside the jurisdiction in such cases", "such cases" being cases where the threat of suicide is invoked as the basis for the abortion.
		By the 1861 Act and the 1983 amendment of the Constitution, abortion is banned in Ireland, subject to the exception allowed by the X case decision, that is to say where there is grave danger to the life of the mother even if this, as with threatened suicide, may be a danger posed by herself.

	The Embarrassing Second Amendment
		To put it mildly, the Second Amendment is not at the forefront of constitutional discussion, at least as registered in what the academy regards as the venues for such discussion --law reviews, [13] casebooks, [14] and other scholarly legal publications.
		Professor Cress, for example, argues that state constitutions regularly use the words "man" or "person" in regard to "individual rights such as freedom of conscience," whereas the use in those constitutions of the term "the people" in regard to a right to bear arms is intended to refer to the "sovereign citizenry" collectively organized.
		The initial "first amendment" in fact concerned the future size of the House of Representatives, a topic of no small importance to the Anti- Federalists, who were appalled by the smallness of the House seemingly envisioned by the Philadelphia farmers.

	The Constitution of Ireland - Indymedia Ireland (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		It is settled law that Married women in the Republic of Ireland have an equal right and duty to their Husbands as Nurturers, Carers and Educators of their children, but they do not have an equal right and duty of full Custodial responsibility in law to “keep” and “safe-keep” their children as Providers and Protectors.
		Fundamentally, the 1937 Constitution of Ireland recognises that the greatest possible danger to the freedom and well-being of its people lies in interference by the State in the Family.
		Despite the father being recognised in the Constitution as head of the family and as having authority this is not made explicit in the Guardianship of Infants Act, 1964 so that it might assist him to exercise his duty to maintain and protect his Family.

	California First Amendment Coalition
		Although the controversy has received some media attention, see, e.g., Philip K. Ireland, VUSD board to discipline employees, North County Times, June 7, 1997, at A1, Leventhal refrained from discussing it in a June 7, 1997 Board meeting lest she violate the Bylaw and risk being silenced or ejected from the meeting.
		First and most simply, since Madison the Supreme Court has never wavered from its characterization of school boards as limited public fora.
		Read in light of the First Amendment principles outlined in this decision, the Superintendent's determination of whether a proposed agenda item is "appropriate for an open Board meeting" is limited to consideration of whether the item falls "within the subject matter jurisdiction of the legislative body." Cal. Gov't Code § 54954.3.

	The Right to Keep and Bear Arms
		What the Subcommittee on the Constitution uncovered was clear — and long lost — proof that the second amendment to our Constitution was intended as an individual right of the American citizen to keep and carry arms in a peaceful manner, for protection of himself, his family, and his freedoms.
		Indeed, the debates over the Constitution constantly referred to the organized militia units as a threat to freedom comparable to that of a standing army, and stressed that such organized units did not constituted, and indeed were philosophically opposed to, the concept of a militia.
		The first comment, in Dred Scott, indicated strongly that the right to keep and bear arms was an individual right; the Court noted that, were it to hold fls to be entitled to equality of citizenship, they would be entitled to keep and carry arms wherever they went.

		The amendment was submitted by Republican congresswoman Marilyn Musgrave calling for the protection of the "sanctity of marriage" between men and women.

	Anti-flag-burning amendment to US Constitution fails by a single vote : Indybay
		An amendment backed by the Bush administration to give Congress the power to “ban desecration of the American flag” received 66 votes with 34 against, just missing the two-thirds margin required.
		Three times the amendment did not come to a vote in the Senate, and twice before the Senate rejected it, most recently in 2000, when the amendment fell four votes short.
		Since a constitutional amendment requires a two-thirds majority of each house, and then ratification by the state legislatures of 38 states, passage depends on substantial Democratic Party support.

		A return to the public presence of religion, under the auspices of the First Amendment, may be needed to combat Relativism’s erosive societal effects.
		This is why liberals constantly assert that there is a ‘separation of church and state’ in the constitution, though the phrase does not appear there.
		The First Amendment says about religion, ''Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof'' The murky minds of liberals and atheists have played the child’s game of Twister with those words, so that they have become an unrecognizable screed.

	Morality Amendment to the Constitution \| Democrats.com
		I believe the 26% who say "mostly illegal" have "fuzzy" views on the issue, and if they were presented with a clear "moral" choice - whether to put millions of women and their doctors in jail - they would overwhelmingly vote against criminalization.
		I believe Republican leaders (who are all rich white men) know if they promoted such an amendment, the majority - led by women - would rise up and sweep them into the dustbin of history.
		People like Huckabee would vote for an amendment such as you describe, but I think the other republicans (the ones who haven't drank the Flavor Aid, yet) would be smart enough to know that republican women enjoy having their Constitutional protections, too.
