It's a gimmick to give the law a recognizable name, usually related to the content of the law itself. It's caught on here and just kinda stuck.
I can see the value of it but it's also kitchy and annoying :P
Oh for sure. Especially with how many laws effectively get a name opposite of what they actually do. People read the name and vote based on that, without actually Knowing what the law does.
