Different laws for different states.

Not sure I understand the question.  Basically, the only one that is binding in Alabama is the Alabama Code.  APA Model Codes are examples of laws that the American Bar Assocation recommends that states adopt.  Often, state legislatures adopt model codes exactly as written.  Sometimes state legitlatures adopt parts of the model codes.  And sometimes state legislatures dont follow the model code at all.  I do not know which stance the Alabama legislature has taken.

All pieces of legislation (bills) must be signed by the president to be inacted as a law.  If a president vetoes a bill, the Congress can simply override the veto by a two-thirds vote in both the House (290) and Senate (67).  The Congress raises funds through taxation.

2 terms. No exceptions. The 22nd Amendment states this law.

well when legilation is first introduced, and its sent to a committee (or 2 or 3), that allows it to be judged and amended by senators and/or congressmen who know about the specific issues.  For example, with immigration legislation, it would go to a committee on security because it deals with border patrol.  They can amend or change the legislation so it can be implimented better, they can also do more negative things like add (sometimes totally unrelated) riders, or pork programs to a bill to help it pass, or if theres enough dissent, the bill can be stalled by committee debate which leads to it being shelved.\nAfter it finally leaves committee most people know whether or not it will pass. The bill itself is either a "good" piece of legislation dealing with the issue at hand in a clear comprehensive and swift manner, or it has grown (like last year's highway bill) to a piece of legislation including many different issues (imagine an immigration bill which included funding for a new day care center in alaska).  \nSo i guess the committee system can either help get a bill written and passed asap, or it can kill or modify a bill to a point of pork barrel spending thats almost embarassing.

In some states, the state legislature has to vote to certify the elections.  In others, it is the Executive branch.

I can't imagine that any state legislature would create that type of law, but then again, their are some pretty strange laws out there.  I would guess that the answer is no.

Your question isn't really specific enough to answer, because I don't know if you're talking about city, county, state, or US laws.  Every state, city, and county has their own system for doing things, so it would depend on where you live as to what the answer to your quesiton is.\n\nIf you're talking about US laws, the Legislative Brach (Congress and House of Representatives) introduces a law and if it passes by more than a 50% majority, it goes to the Executive Branch (president) to sign it.  If the president veteos it, the Legislative Branch can still pass it if they can get a 2/3 majority vote.  After it is passed, it is then sent to the Judicial Branch (Supreme Court) to make sure the law is Constitutional.

Section 1. -After one year from the ratification of this article the manufacture, sale, or transportation of intoxicating liquors within, the importation thereof into, or the exportation thereof from the United States and all territory subject to the jurisdiction thereof for beverage purposes is hereby prohibited. \n\nSection 2. The Congress and the several States shall have concurrent power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation. \n\nSection 3. This article shall be inoperative unless it shall have been ratified as an amendment to the Constitution by the legislatures of the several States, as provided in the Constitution, within seven years from the date of the submission hereof to the States by the Congress.\n\n\n\nAmendment XVIII (the Eighteenth Amendment) of the United States Constitution, along with the Volstead Act (which defined "intoxicating liquors"), established Prohibition in the United States.\n\n\nHistory\nThe senate passed the amendment on December 18, 1917. The amendment was ratified on January 16, 1919, having been approved by 36 states. It went into effect one year later on January 16, 1920.\n\nWhen Congress submitted this amendment to the states for ratification, it was the first time that a proposed amendment had a provision that placed a deadline on ratification. The validity of the amendment was challenged on that basis in Dillon v. Gloss. The Supreme Court ruled on the case in 1921, upholding the constitutionality of such deadlines.\n\nThe amendment was subsequently repealed by the Twenty-First Amendment on December 5, 1933, making it the only provision in the Constitution to be explicitly modified.\n\nThe ramifications of the 18th Amendment, which will live on to be remembered as "Prohibition", have reached into today. The Amendment eternally changed the notion that localized crime could not evolve into a full-fledged mafia syndicate; while also removing the facade of a utopian society without alcohol (or any other drug, for that matter) in its veins, because it is just one of the many luxuries that make up the plasma in the American bloodstream. Prohibition changed the lives and roles of moonshiners and rum-runners, transforming them, along their product, into the lifeblood of American speakeasies and mob dons, forever revolutionizing the American dream and image.

First, a bill is drafted by a representative. It then goes to the legislative house of the rep. and is assigned a committee (different houses have different means of doing this). Then it is probably assigned to a subcommittee that researches it, and sends it off back to the full committee with a recomendation. The committee will then debate, and hear testimony on the bill and it's effects. It could be amended here at any point along the process. Then, it it will be voted on, if it fails, it dies and is redrafted. If the vote ties or passes, it will go to the full floor of the body. The body will then debate and maybe amend it. Then vote on it. If it fails it will go back to the committee. If it passes it will go to the other legislative body (if the govt. is bicameral), WITHOUT THE AMENDMENTS! The other house will vote on amendments etc. If it fails it goes back to the committee, if it passes, it goes to the president/governor/mayor/etc. (see the next paragraph). If it passes with different amendments, or with only some of the amendments, or none at all, it will go to a confrence committee, and the committee will work on it, and so on and so forth.\n\nThe pres/gov/etc can sign it, and it will become a law. Veto it and it will not become a law, (the legislative body can override a veto with a 2/3 vote) and the bill will go back to the legislature with a list of objections to the bill. Or, he can do nothing, and it will be pocket vetoed in 10 days.\n\nIf the bill finally becomes a law, someone can sue the govt. and the courts can overturn it if it finds that the law in unconstitutional.

A statute is repealed by passage of a succeeding statute that expressly repeals the earlier statute.  \n\nMany state statutes & some Federal ones have "sunset" provisions, that provide they automatically expire after a certain period.

That would be mentioned somewhere in the state constitution, which it is not. Instead, the governor has the power of clemency.\n\n"Except in cases of treason and in cases where impeachment results in conviction, the governor may, by executive order filed with the custodian of state records, suspend collection of fines and forfeitures, grant reprieves not exceeding sixty days and, with the approval of two members of the cabinet, grant full or conditional pardons, restore civil rights, commute punishment, and remit fines and forfeitures for offenses."

The Governor has the highest executive power in the state. The Governor has many responsibilities. The Governor has important powers in lawmaking. When the legislature passes a bill, they send it to the governor. The Governor can then sign the bill to make it law or send it back to the legislature with objections (veto it). If the Governor does not sign the bill or send it back, it will become law. The legislature can pass bills the governor has vetoed, but 2/3 of the members must vote for the bill. If necessary, the Governor may also call a special session of the legislature so they can address a particularly significant issue.\n\nAnother important responsibility is to appoint people to positions that help efficiently run our state. The Governor appoints judges, cabinet members, many members of boards and commissions that oversee state institutions, and may appoint replacements for State Officers who are unable to complete a term
