Specialist Printing Equipment and Materials (Offences) Act 2015
Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.
Change 1
1 Offence of supplying specialist printing equipment knowing it will be used for criminal purposes
(1) A person commits an offence if— (a) the person supplies any specialist printing equipment, and (b) in making the supply, the person knows that the equipment will be or is intended to be used for the purposes of criminal conduct. (2) “Criminal conduct” means conduct which constitutes— (a) an offence under the law of England and Wales, or (b) an offence under the law of a country outside England and Wales which, if it took place in England and Wales, would constitute an offence in England and Wales. (3) An individual guilty of an offence under this section is liable on conviction on indictment to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 10 years, or to a fine, or to both. (4) Any other person guilty of an offence under this section is liable on conviction on indictment to a fine. (5) It is a defence for a person charged with an offence under this section to prove that the person's conduct was necessary for a purpose related to the prevention or detection of crime.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".
Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.
A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.
