How to use "Repeal" in context?
Repeal is a word that is often thrown around without much thought. Repealing a law can seem like a trivial task, but in reality, it can be a complex and difficult process. Laws can be enacted by the federal government, the state government, or a local government. Once a law is passed, it cannot be repealed without the consent of the President of the United States and the Congress.
repeal can take many forms, from a simple repeal of a piece of legislation to a repeal of the entire statute book. any repeal legislation must be passed by both the House of Representatives and the Senate.
