Propose a change

Title 14 Children

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.

(a) Complaints alleging a child is delinquent shall be referred to the office of the district attorney.

The department, the county sheriff and the county probation departments shall provide the district attorney with any assistance he may require in making an investigation. The district attorney shall prepare and file a petition with the court if he believes action is necessary to protect the interest of the public or child. (b) Repealed By Laws 1997, ch. 199, § 3.

Your wording

Your change, as a redline

14-6-211. Complaints alleging delinquency; investigation and determination by district attorney.

Title

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Why

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.
