Propose a change

Title 20 Domestic Relations

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

20-2-315. Court may require security for child support payments.

(a) Upon the issuance of any order or entering of a decree under this chapter which provides for child support payments, or any time thereafter following notice and opportunity for hearing, the court may, for good cause shown, require the obligor to provide security of nonexempt property that the court deems satisfactory to secure payment of child support. (b) The court, upon petition and following notice and hearing, shall no longer require the order for security if the court determines: (i) Good cause no longer exists to require security to assure payment upon the obligation to pay child support; and (ii) There is no overdue support outstanding. (c) Once the child support obligation has terminated and arrearages satisfied, the security shall be released.

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.
