STATE BALLOT MEASURE

EXPLANATION:

Bolded is the proposed text and below it is the explanation.

(a) No house or committee vote shall occur on any bill that is not written in a clear and coherent manner, using words with common and everyday meanings that the average functionally literate citizen can understand.

When it comes to consumer contracts, many states have already enacted laws which require them to be written in a clear and coherent manner using common everyday meanings. There's no reason why our legislators shouldn't do the same. Common sense, dotting the I's and crossing the T's come into play more quickly when our legislators are able to easily understand what it is that they are voting on. It makes for better, clearer and more succinct laws.

There are advantages and perceived disadvantages to this measure, and they are disclosed to you.

There is a plan to make this law a reality and to also change the way government works. If we don't do it, it will never happen. Certainly, we can't rely on government.

There are easy ways you can help out in the comfort of your own home doing things that you normally already do.
