Propose a change

RSA 71-B Board of Tax and Land Appeals

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

71-B:20 Legal Counsel.

Whenever an assessment or reassessment made upon order of the board results in a petition being brought in the superior court or before the board by a taxpayer against a city or town for abatement of the tax so assessed the attorney general in his discretion, upon request of the commissioner, may represent the town or city involved at no cost or expense to the town or city. All costs and expenses of said proceeding, for which the town or city would otherwise be liable, excepting the salaries of the attorney general or his staff member engaged therein, shall be a proper charge against the appropriation for the department of revenue administration. Nothing herein shall be construed as authorizing the attorney general to appear for a town or city in any actions which may be brought against said town or city in tax abatement proceedings other than as specifically authorized hereunder. Source. 1973, 544:2, eff. Sept. 1, 1973.

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.
