irrepealable
Fixed beyond reversal
Irrepealable describes a law, right, or provision that cannot be repealed or revoked.
The term appears in legal and constitutional contexts where certain protections are meant to be permanent: The constitution declared freedom of speech an irrepealable right.
In practice, few things are truly irrepealable—the word often signals intent rather than absolute permanence.
