Examples of Bennett Law in the following topics:
-
- The Chinese Exclusion Act was a U.S. federal law signed by Chester A.
- The Nativists went public in 1854 when they formed the "American Party," which was especially hostile to the immigration of Irish Catholics, and campaigned for laws to require a longer wait time between immigration and naturalization (the laws never passed).
- The Bennett Law caused a political uproar in Wisconsin in 1890, as the state government passed a law that threatened to close down hundreds of German-language elementary schools.
- The law was repealed in 1891, but Democrats used the memories to carry Wisconsin and Illinois in the 1892 U.S. presidential election.
-
- Many states also passed similar laws (collectively known as the Comstock laws), that extended the federal law by outlawing the use of contraceptives as well as their distribution.
- At the turn of the century, an energetic movement arose that sought to overturn anti-obscenity laws and the Comstock Acts.
- Bennett, Emma Goldman, and Margaret Sanger.
- Sanger's goal of challenging the law was fulfilled when she was indicted in August, 1914, but the prosecution focused their attention on articles Sanger had written about marriage, rather than those about contraception.
- New York state law prohibited the distribution of contraceptives or even contraceptive information, but Sanger hoped to exploit a provision in the law that permitted doctors to prescribe contraceptives for the prevention of disease.
-
- James Gordon Bennett's New York Herald added another dimension to penny press newspapers which is now common in journalistic practice.
- Whereas newspapers had generally relied on documents as sources, Bennett introduced the practices of observation and interviewing to provide stories with more vivid details.
- Bennett is known for redefining the concept of news, reorganizing the news business, and introducing newspaper competition.
- Bennett's New York Herald was financially independent of politicians because it had a large numbers of advertisers.
-
- News baron Gordon Bennett's Sun was the first penny newspaper .
- New York's Central Park was designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux.
-
- This law lowered the standards for involuntary commitment in civil courtrooms and was followed by significant de-funding of 1700 hospitals caring for mental patients.
- Finally in 1987, President Reagan signed into law the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act.
- This approach brought Koop into conflict with other administration officials, such as Education Secretary William Bennett.

-
- For example, as Hodge, Burden, Robinson, and Bennett (2008) point out, black male athletes are often believed to be more athletic, yet less intelligent, than their white male counterparts.
-
- Gauss's law is a law relating the distribution of electric charge to the resulting electric field.
- Gauss's law can be used to derive Coulomb's law, and vice versa.
- In fact, Gauss's law does hold for moving charges, and in this respect Gauss's law is more general than Coulomb's law.
- Gauss's law has a close mathematical similarity with a number of laws in other areas of physics, such as Gauss's law for magnetism and Gauss's law for gravity.
- In fact, any "inverse-square law" can be formulated in a way similar to Gauss's law: For example, Gauss's law itself is essentially equivalent to the inverse-square Coulomb's law, and Gauss's law for gravity is essentially equivalent to the inverse-square Newton's law of gravity.
