There Ought to be a Law Application - CA State Senator Bob Huff

Do you have a common sense idea to cut waste, fraud and abuse from state government? Are you a small business owner frustrated by bureaucratic red tape? Do you see a sensible solution to a growing problem in the community?

Some of the best ideas for state legislation come from those most affected by the proposal at a local level. If you have an idea for a new law that you’d like me to consider, or if you’d like to legitimately see a particular law abolished, I hope you will participate in my “There Ought To Be a Law” contest.

I hope to select one idea and introduce it as part of my 2010 legislative bill package in February. The person submitting the chosen idea will be invited to join me for lunch in Sacramento at the State Capitol and will receive a California State flag that has been flown over the Capitol.

To submit a proposal, please fill out the application below as completely as possible, then click the 'Submit My Idea' button.

This year's entry deadline is November 30.

You may also download a copy of the application as a Word document or a PDF file and mail it to Senator Bob Huff, Attn: Kelly Garman, State Capitol, Room 3048, Sacramento, CA 95814.
