Title 40 Trade and Commerce

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

40-2-103. Reservation.

(a) Any person intending to adopt a trade name for use and intending to apply for registration of a trade name may reserve the trade name in the following manner. Reservation shall be made by filing an application with the secretary of state to reserve a specified trade name, executed by the applicant. If the secretary of state finds that the name is available for use, and upon payment of thirty dollars ($30.00), he shall reserve the name for the exclusive use of the applicant for a period of one hundred twenty (120) days. The reservation is not renewable. (b) The right to the exclusive use of a specified trade name so reserved may be transferred to any other person by filing a notice of the transfer in the office of the secretary of state, executed by the applicant for whom the name was reserved and specifying the name and address of the transferee.

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.
