if you were elected to your state's legislature...

[muon2]

Propose a constitutional amendment changing the size of the Arkansas Senate to 36 and the Arkansas House to 108 for redistricting purposes, with a companion bill giving an independent committee made up of two republican's, two democrats and an independent to oversee redistricting.

You can put me down as a cosponsor. I'll even come in from IL to testify.

1. Mandatory Audits of Government Agenices- We have a lot of corruption in our state. Recently, a loan program in the Department of Agriculture was uncovered as being a hotbed of questionably legal and outright unethical activity. This was only discovered as a result of an audit of the Agriculture department. Additionally, we've uncovered tens of millions of dollars in waste in our education system as a result of the audit. A mandatory audit would be be a basic "good government" practice and also outline the waste, fraud, and abuse that would be cut.

2. Legal Reform- West Virginia has been consistently ranked as one of the worst legal climates for business. If I were in the legislature, I would act on setting a $200,000 cap for damages beyond the cost of repair/medical bills/real damages. I'd also work on establishing an intermediate appellate court to provide a more effective system of justice.

3. Labor Relations Reform- Unions are contributing to our economic issues. Especially when it comes to the coal industry, unions are working against the economic well-being of our state. I would support a bill that includes right-to-work, annual reauthorization votes, and requiring management to have a vote in union formation and reauthorization elections.

4. Expand Citizenship Educaton- Our schools are producing a generation of people who don't care and never try to make a difference. I would require 40 hours of community service for every student. There would be a new tax credit for contributions to charitable trusts. I'd also expand the Youth in Government line item by $100,000.

5. Right to Life Legislation- We have legal, taxpayer-funded abortion in the ninth month of pregnancy. This is unacceptable. I would support a pain capable abortion bill that would reverse the tide in Charleston. The radical Left has had out-sized influence on the right to life. Let's undo it.


This isn't all I'd push for, but it's definitely a start. I didn't even touch on education.

5. Right to Life Legislation- We have legal, taxpayer-funded abortion in the ninth month of pregnancy.

What? Are you talking about medically necessary abortions for people on Medicaid? During the ninth month I'd think they'd just induce labor rather than abort. Are you sure you have all of your facts correct?

1. Repeal Virginia's Right to Work law.  
2. Shift redistricting authority from the General Assembly to a non-partisan redistricting commission.

[Enderman]

Tax cuts for unemployed and low income families
School vouchers for low income families
Reform the way retires are cared for
Balanced budget amendment for the Florida Constitution (though we might already have it)
Repeal right to work, that or just ban it

[MyRescueKittehRocks]

Liberalize ballot access laws
Allow for gold/silver as legal tender
Nullify recent City of Kokomo's recent annexations of several small towns (Alto, Indian Heights, etc) and and require any future attempted annexation by any city to be voted on by the only the people in the potentially affected precinct. Judges will no longer decide if cities can annex precincts
Ban Common Core (which has happened) and any of its look a like clones
Return drivers license requirements to pre-2010 rules (no six month wait)
No Agenda 21 ( I have looked into it and it poses serious threat to state and national sovereignty)
Ban Abortion after 12 weeks except for rape, incest, life of the mother
Restore the defunding of Planned Parenthood
 

[The world will shine with light in our nightmare]

5. Legislation opposing implementation of UN Agenda 21.

6. A bill to ban the practice of water fluoridation.

[President of the great nation of 🏳️‍⚧️]

Resign immediately, wondering why I thought it was a good idea to run in the first place, as well as how a trans autistic teenage lesbian managed to get elected anyway (even though I'll almost certainly not be a teenager when I'm elected in this sceario).

I know this a necro-topic, but do you really think that'd be a good idea? It's better than the current situation, but I think a panel like that gives too much power to one possibly persuadable individual. In that plan, one individual holds all power over the plan. I'm partial to the California plan that requires a majority of all parties. It prevents talking one individual into a particular plan. You need to have a fail-safe against one individual deciding between two parties.

[Clarence Boddicker]

1. Repeal Virginia Tennessee's Right to Work law.  
2. Shift redistricting authority from the General Assembly to a non-partisan redistricting commission.

[FairBol]

Lowering state taxes across the board....because "the rent is too damn high". 

[OSR stands with Israel]

1. Exempting $15,000 from state taxes, or the total your taxed at the the federal rate , which ever comes first(right now its $4000)


2. Make the zoning laws more lenient so we can lower house prices, and also increase the number of building permits for apartments .

3. Removing many regulations hurting small business in oregon

4. Lower the top corporate tax rate from 7.6% to 5%

I would introduce a resolution worded almost exactly like this one, sponsored by the Convention of States Project.

[Crumpets]

Probably something relatively easy that doesn't have the possibility of becoming a complete disaster if done wrong. Maybe transferring some National Forest land to an adjacent Wilderness Area, or something like that.

[White Trash]

Repealing Right-To-Work laws

[Zioneer]

IRV.

More seriously, if I thought it could pass, I'd try for much stronger regulations on payday lenders. They're scum.

[RFayette]

Taxing abortion clinics

[MAINEiac4434]

Taking Maine out of daylight savings time.

[Antonio the Sixth]

It would depend on the State. In California, I think introducing single-payer healthcare might be a good first step. Or possibly criminal justice reform.

[Orthogonian Society Treasurer]

Repeal of the provincial excise tax on fuel - currently 25.39 cents per litre.

[Unconditional Surrender Truman]

If I was being pragmatic, legislation to establish an independent redistricting committee. If I wanted to make a statement, legislation to repeal Right-to-Work.

[The world will shine with light in our nightmare]

First bill I'd introduce?  Let's start off with something small: single-payer.  Single-payer, then either weed or independent redistricting.

(Of course, of those three things, only weed legalization would stand any chance of passing in the North Carolina Assembly.  Probably just the medical stuff, though, and even that's being generous.  North Carolina is about as democratic as North Korea right now.)
