how do i write a bill for a new law that i want written?

Question

i want to write a bill or law to require helmets for motorcycles and atv's before the engine will start.

Answer 1

You can't write a bill, only a member of the legislature (the lege as we call them in TX) can write a bill.

Write your congressmen, senators, governors, city councilmen, mayors, etc and tell them about your ideas.

Answer 2

You need to check and see if your state allows voter initiatives. It would not be a national law. No one should be required to wear a helmet. They should wear a helmet, but we shouldn't be taking away their right not to. This is just another example of one person thinking they know best for everyone, when they can't possibly.

Answer 3

I don't know, because i haven't done this before. Once I met a friend on a site called bikerkiss. He said he wanted to write a law. I thought he was joking. But if u really want to do this, u can go there. Maybe someone can help u.

Answer 4

Why? Don't we have enough unenforceable laws in our country? And how does this effect you? Isn't it up to the rider to decide whether he wears a helmet or not?

We have enough laws that infringe on our freedoms. Enough is enough.

Answer 5

Perhaps you should check your New Congresspersons Orientation booklet.

Answer 6

You can't, you would need to lobby your state legislature and someone there would write it.
