	The ~~History~~ of Cameron's Law		== The Preternatural Rights Act of 2020 (Cameron's Law) ==

	In February of 2009, a young Harvard Law student named Cameron St John convinced a congressman from Massachusetts to propose a bill to the House of Representatives that would make preternatural beings legal citizens of the United States. Cameron was a werewolf. The congressman was human, but was married to a werewolf. (This was how they knew each other.)		== History ==
	Naturally, the bill was met with derisiveness and incredulity. Cameron and the congressman's wife, however, were able to convince the House that this was a real bill and the strangest series of government talks began and led to conflict in government and in the people unlike anything seen since the Civil Rights movement in the 1960s. In both places, the path followed was parallel.
	~~(Like the civil rights act, the commerce clause was put into affect again.)~~

	~~The~~ bill ~~began in the House and moved~~ to ~~Committee to Hearings to Vote. It passed in~~ the House ~~and moved to~~ the ~~Senate~~, ~~where it went~~ to ~~Committee to Debate to Vote~~. ~~It passed again and moved to Dual Conference to Adoption/Passing and finally~~ was ~~Signed into law on May 6, 2010, roughly fifteen months after the process began~~.

The History of Cameron's Law

In February of 2009, a young Harvard Law student named Cameron St John convinced a congressman from Massachusetts to propose a bill to the House of Representatives that would make preternatural beings legal citizens of the United States. Cameron was a werewolf. The congressman was human, but was married to a werewolf. (This was how they knew each other.)
Naturally, the bill was met with derisiveness and incredulity. Cameron and the congressman's wife, however, were able to convince the House that this was a real bill and the strangest series of government talks began and led to conflict in government and in the people unlike anything seen since the Civil Rights movement in the 1960s. In both places, the path followed was parallel.
(Like the civil rights act, the commerce clause was put into affect again.)

The bill began in the House and moved to Committee to Hearings to Vote. It passed in the House and moved to the Senate, where it went to Committee to Debate to Vote. It passed again and moved to Dual Conference to Adoption/Passing and finally was Signed into law on May 6, 2010, roughly fifteen months after the process began.

During the Hearings in the House, several preternaturals came forward and allowed themselves to be tested medically to assure that they were what they said they were. Protests began both for and against the motion. The preternatural gathered and organized. There were petitions and the media used. They spoke at the Hearings, pleading to be recognized as legal beings like anyone else. There were 'preternatural sit-ins' where preternaturals in human and animal forms would silently protest their right to be alive and be present, and would often be joined by human supporters.
Cameron was the leading edge of the movement, but his vampire girlfriend - Sadie Stanton - was not far behind him. There were others, but these two led the charge, in many ways.

Sadie remains a frequent face for the rights of the preternatural as they continue to their battle to integrate into society. She has since moved to Connecticut.
