Propose a change

Title 18 Counties

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

18-8-106. To be maintained as public hospitals; charges

for services; when free services to be given; payment for resident indigent hospitalization. Every county memorial hospital established and maintained as provided by law is a public county hospital. It may charge persons able to pay the same a reasonable price for use of the hospital and its facilities during the time required for proper treatment, and shall furnish free to residents of the county having no means to pay for the same all necessary facilities and maintenance during the time such persons are required to remain there for proper treatment. As long as a county department of public assistance and social services functions in the county as provided by law, the funds in control of the board for hospitalization purposes shall be deemed "means" for payment of resident indigent hospitalization.

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.
