1986: Control Act
built 605 days ago
At the heart of the Animals (Scientific Procedures) Act 1986 is a cost-benefit analysis which must be applied before any research project involving animals can go ahead. Thus the costs, in terms of potential animal suffering, must be weighed against the potential benefits of the research.
[T]he most significant news for the 1986 Corvette occurred at midyear with the return of the Corvette convertible -- the first such model in 11 years. Engineered with help from American Sunroof Company, it was announced just in time to be chosen as pace car for that year's Indy 500. All convertibles were designated as Pace Car Replicas, regardless of color or equipment (though the actual pace cars were painted a bright yellow).
Like the current Senate legislation, the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 was a bipartisan compromise and strongly supported by the President. When President Reagan signed the bill, he declared, "It will remove the incentive for illegal immigration." He believed that because the bill addressed the status of those illegally in the country and promised to reduce further mass illegal migration through more rigorous enforcement of the law and a temporary worker program.

The proposal will bring about another flood of illegal immigration as it has the same basic elements of the 1986 Immigration Reform and Control Act: enhanced enforcement, legal immigration increases, guestworkers, and amnesties. Amnesty is the pardoning immigration lawbreakers and rewarding them with the objective of their crimes, be it jobs or green cards. Even if they are required to pay fines or back taxes, learn English and civics, or even "go to the back of the line" for their green cards, if the end result is legal permission to work or stay for any period of time in the United States, it is amnesty.

The Sweet's tragedy started on January 25, 1986, in Anchorage, Alaska, when they brought their nine-day-old son Jacob back to Providence Hospital after he exhibited signs of an infected circumcision. Jacob was admitted to the pediatric ward and displayed seizure activity for 24 hours, but their pediatrician, Dr. Daniel Tulip, was absent most of the time and failed to refer Jacob to a neonatologist until after Jacob had suffered the brain damage that would leave him physically devastated, developmentally delayed, and utterly dependent for the rest of his life.
