RSA 21-H Department of Corrections

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.

I. The commissioner may transfer any inmate, provided that whenever a transfer involves a county facility, a contract specifying the conditions of that transfer shall have been executed in advance. II. A transfer may be made whenever the commissioner determines that an inmate cannot be properly or safely kept at the correctional facility at which he is confined or that such transfer is in the best public interest or furthers legitimate penological objectives. When any transfer involves a county facility, the commissioner of corrections shall obtain the approval of the appropriate county correctional administrator before making such a transfer.

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.
