RSA 44 Cities and Wards
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
44:10-a Contingency Fund.
Every city, by its council, may establish a contingency fund to meet the cost of unanticipated expenses that may arise during the year. Such fund shall not exceed one percent of the amount expended by the city for city purposes, exclusive of school department costs, capital expenditures and amortization of debt during the preceding year. A detailed report of all expenditures from the contingency fund shall be made annually by the treasurer and published in his report. Source. 1965, 123:2, eff. July 27, 1965.

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.
