What to do with it
As published

84-A:14 Declaration of Intent.

It is the declared intent of this chapter to provide for the consistent, equitable, and rational taxation of revenue received from inpatient hospital services and outpatient hospital services, which are 2 separate and distinct classes of property and are permissible classes of health care-related services which may be taxed in accordance with federal law to ensure access to Federal Financial Participation. In addition, it is the declared intent of this chapter to enact a health care-related tax, as permitted under section 1903(w) of the Social Security Act, upon the revenue derived from inpatient and outpatient hospital services, which are distinct from other classes of health care services, are subject to a different reimbursement methodology for public payors, are subject to different licensing and certification requirements, are potentially eligible for uncompensated care payments under the disproportionate share hospital program, and which provide a necessary, rational, and demonstrated public health benefit.

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.
