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.

Article 8

1.   Before taking any measures in accordance with Article 4 (1), the Commission may in the interests of the service request the official concerned to state within one month whether he will accept transfer to a post corresponding to the career bracket immediately below that applicable to his grade. If the official accepts, he may be transferred to such a post notwithstanding the provisions of Article 7 (1) of the Staff Regulations. 2.   An official affected by a decision taken in accordance with the second subparagraph of paragraph 1 shall retain his grade and all rights relating thereto. He shall have a priority right of transfer to any post corresponding to his grade which may fall vacant or be created provided that he is suitable for the post in question. CHAPTER III Transitional and final provisions

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.
