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
As published
21-J:21 Publication of Report of Audit.
A written or printed report of every completed audit shall be made to the proper local officials including a summary of the findings and recommendations of the auditors and a copy of such summary shall be published in the next annual report following the fiscal year in which the audit was completed. If, in the opinion of the governing board of a city or the selectmen, school board, county or village district commissioners, the whole report of audit should be published, the report may be published. If such summary of findings and recommendations is not so published, the commissioner, at the expense of the county, city, town, or district affected thereby, may cause such summary to be separately published and distributed or published in a newspaper having a general circulation in said county, city, town, or district.

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.
