Repeal "Ban on Conversion Therapy"
A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.
Category: Repeal
Target: GA#437
Proposed by: Tinhampton

General Assembly Resolution #437 “Ban on Conversion Therapy” (Category: Civil Rights; Strength: Mild) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Applauding GA#437 "Ban on Conversion Therapy," which prohibited the most exploitative forms of conversion therapy while it was in force,

Noting that GA#559 "End Conversion Therapy" - which outlaws all forms of conversion therapy - has rendered these prohibitions obsolete, and

Believing that repealing GA#437 is sensible, given that it does nothing that GA#559 does not already do...

The General Assembly hereby repeals GA#437 "Ban on Conversion Therapy."

OOC: So for a change you're first trying to pass the replacement?

I know, right? :P

There is very little reason for this repeal and replace.

Draft amended to reflect that fact that End Conversion Therapy will be GA#559 if it passes (and it looks like it will; it's currently up by 4,000 votes).

Is my argument sufficiently coherent? :P

OOC: Five-by-five solid from my angle.

“With your recent passage of the replacement, I see no reason not to pass this repeal. I don’t quite see a reason to do so either, since it’s not as though unnecessary resolutions cause any harm, but that isn’t a cause for opposition.”

Stepanovskiy: I would’ve said “full support” but it’s not like I’m offered a say in the matter. Still, we do support this and should this pass will most likely return to the wa, but I doubt that anyone would care…

"May as well, I suppose. I rather doubt we can reverse the failure of this chamber to acknowledge reality in the short term. I'll write out an order for my office's approval once this goes to Vote."

"The Haven firmly believes that this repeal and replacement was entirely unnecessary, as the original resolution prevented the coercive use of conversion therapy by states and parents without the unduely overbearing restriction on adults deciding what they do with their own minds and bodies. As we did not support the replacement proposal we are unable to support this repeal."

Sending my approval now, and I'll voice support this when it comes up for discussion in Refugia.

I sent out the following campaign telegram this evening:
Greetings, Delegate. I am asking you today to approve my repeal of "Ban on Conversion Therapy".

Ban on Conversion Therapy was passed in 2018. It bans some forms of conversion therapy.

End Conversion Therapy was passed in 2021. It bans all forms of conversion therapy.

I want to repeal Ban on Conversion Therapy because it does nothing that End Conversion Therapy does not do. I hope that you will approve my repeal.

Thank you,
The Self-Administrative City of Tinhampton

“The delegation from Waldenes applauds the decision to push through a superior replacement first, before the repeal. Let us take note of this moment. Perhaps we should be doing it this way more often. As the replacement has been overwhelmingly enacted into law, we shall support the repeal of the older and now obsolete policy. Once again, Ambassador, we are impressed.”

"It's not repealing the legislation on conversion therapy that just passed. It's repealing older legislation passed in 2018. Conversion therapy is still banned in W.A states."

The Empire of Shallow Creek shows no support for repealing.

Staypuftonia supports the repeal, under the principle that if a better amendment exists, then there is no point for an existing one which only partially covers the subject of the newer amendment.
