Propose a change

RSA 20 Publication and Distribution of Bills, Joint Resolutions, Legislative Manual, Statutes, Journals, and Reports

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

20:9 State and Provincial Records.

The secretary of state, with the approval of the governor and council, may from time to time collect, arrange, transcribe, and cause to be printed such portions of the early state and provincial records as he may deem expedient. He shall determine the style, form, and quantity to be printed and may employ such assistants as the governor and council may approve. Source. 1919, 3:8. PL 5:9. 1931, 28:1. RL 10:9.

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.
