Military Lands Act 1892
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
1 Powers to purchase land.
(1) A Secretary of State may purchase land in the United Kingdom under this Act, for the military purposes of any portion of Her Majesty’s military forces or for the naval purposes of any portion of Her Majesty’s naval forces. (2) A volunteer corps may, with the consent of the Secretary of State, themselves purchase land under this Act for military purposes. (3) The council of a county or borough may, at the request of one or more volunteer corps, purchase under this Act, and holdby agreement or, if so authorised by the Secretary of State, compulsorily, land on behalf of the volunteer corps for military purposes and may hold land on that behalf. (4) The Secretary of State shall, before giving his consent to the purchase of any land under this Act by a volunteer corps, send an inspector to the land for the purpose of ascertaining its capabilities of being used for military purposes with due regard to the safety and convenience of the public, and shall give or withhold his consent accordingly.

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.

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.
