An Act Concerning Trade Names, Fraudulent Filings, Impermissible Business Solicitations, Dissolution Of Corporations, The Issuance Of An Apostille And Fees Charged By A Notary.

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: (1) Revise processes related to applications for, and issuance of, trade name certificates, (2) provide the Secretary of the State with additional authority to take actions with respect to fraudulent filings, deceptive business solicitations and the dissolution of corporations that fail to comply with state law, (3) revise provisions relating to the issuance of an apostille, and (4) increase permissible fees that may be charged by a notary.
