Propose a change

Title 34.1 Uniform Commercial Code

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.

What to do with it
As published

34.1-4-503. Responsibility of presenting bank for

documents and goods; report of reasons for dishonor; referee in case of need. (a) Unless otherwise instructed and except as provided in article 5, a bank presenting a documentary draft: (i) Must deliver the documents to the drawee on acceptance of the draft if it is payable more than three (3) days after presentment, otherwise, only on payment; and (ii) Upon dishonor either in the case of presentment for acceptance or presentment for payment, may seek and follow instructions from any referee in case of need designated in the draft or, if the presenting bank does not choose to utilize the referee's services, it must use diligence and good faith to ascertain the reason for dishonor, must notify its transferor of the dishonor and of the results of its effort to ascertain the reasons therefor, and must request instructions. (b) However, the presenting bank is under no obligation with respect to goods represented by the documents except to follow any reasonable instructions seasonably received; it has a right to reimbursement for any expense incurred in following any reasonable instructions and to prepayment of or indemnity for those expenses.

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.
