Propose a change

RSA 38 Municipal Electric, Gas, or Water Systems

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

38:5 By Unincorporated Towns and Unorganized Places.

Any unincorporated town or unorganized place may initially establish such a plant after 2/3 of the members of the county convention shall have voted that it is expedient to do so, and, if there are any registered voters in that unincorporated town or unorganized place, after such action by the county convention shall have been confirmed by a majority of the qualified votes in that unincorporated town or unorganized place at a regular election or at a special meeting duly warned in either case. Such confirming vote shall be had within one year from the date of the vote to establish such a plant, and if favorable, shall create a rebuttable presumption that such action is in the public interest. If the vote is unfavorable, the question shall not be again submitted to the voters within 2 years thereafter. Source. 1997, 206:1, eff. July 1, 1997.

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.

Think it through

Ask what your change would do, who would gain and who would bear a cost, and where something like it is already law. The assistant reads your draft as it stands, cites the law and the studies it finds, and takes no side. What you file stays yours.
