An Act Concerning The Process For Initiating Local Legislation In The General Assembly.

Became law

This already passed. Here's what you can still do.

1. Push for repeal or amendment

Legislative staff still count constituent contacts on enacted laws. A steady mail stream is what gets a bill onto the next session's repeal docket. Pick “Oppose” below and the message will frame the ask around repeal, amendment, or enforcement relief.

→ Write to your rep

3. Tell people the bill affects

Most people don't hear about a state-level bill until enforcement starts. A short note now (not a thread, just a link) gives the people most affected time to plan.

Where it is in the process
Plain-English Summary

To remove the requirement that a copy of the resolution or petition of a town, city, borough or other local government to initiate local legislation in the General Assembly be filed with the Secretary of the State.
