Model bills are both the most transparent and the least costly of those options. Every advocacy group can afford to hire some smart people to draft model text; consulting directly with staff in 50 state legislatures is what takes a seriously well-funded operation.

Last thing: there are a few common ways outside advocacy groups directly influence legislative language. (1) Openly circulating model text. (2) Drafting bespoke text for a particular office, rarely advertised. (3) Consulting with the legislative staff doing the drafting.

Finally saw the Joker trailer. It looks fine, but I hope it makes a bajillion dollars so DC gives up on the Snyderverse and goes full tilt on adventurous stand-alone stuff like this.

This is insane. A family found an active webcam hidden in a smoke detector of their Airbnb. Airbnb first denied them a refund, then promised to investigate, then "exonerated" the host and reinstated the listing.

Also many Uniform laws, such as the Uniform Probate Code and Uniform Commercial Code, that weren't drafted from an ideological perspective, but to streamline the industry surrounding the areas the laws cover. I think those laws are pretty clearly good.

Though, also, engaging with the grassroots is a terrible way to understand almost any issue, at least from the perspective of drafting good legal text.

The reps aren’t drafting the bills either way; their staffs are. The better objection in the same neighborhood is that relying on external texts becomes a substitute for legislative offices building in-house expertise.

I think the furor here confuses outside legislative drafting with agency capture. The former is an accepted, if sometimes problematic feature of lawmaking. The latter is the open-yet-dirty secret of the administrative state.

For any issue with a substantial constituency, there’s an advocacy group that can work up a draft bill. That’s not really a constraint. The issue is whether money influences whose drafts get introduced. But that’s an issue regardless of which office the draft gets written in,

I mean, as “money in politics” problems go, the cost of paying a smart lawyer to draft a bill is pretty trivial. Like, if industry groups have a money advantage over environmental groups, it’s not because they can afford to work up more legislative text.

These are fair points. If the model bill is a crutch because there’s a shortage of experienced leg staff, that’s a problem. But... that’s a problem anyway, and probably where the focus should be.

Probably most obvious example for lawyers is the Model Penal Code, which was written by legal scholars under the auspices of the American Law Institute. I would be interested in hearing just how far you can get just by writing the legislation, even w/o money to lobby, etc.

I mean, this amounts to “it’s fine if I like the policy, and bad when I don’t”. But the issue isn’t who drafted the bill; it’s whether a group has the pull to get legislators to do things contrary to the public interest.

If you don’t like some of the bills that are being passed, your problem should be that you have legislators willing to do bad things. If a rep is willing to sponsor the Puppy Strangulation Act, the issue isn’t really whether their staff typed it up from scratch.

The point isn’t “so the process has always been corrupt!” It’s that all legislation, including the bills you approve of, gets written this way, and that’s... sort of fine—as long as the legislative offices have enough in-house expertise to do their own analysis and revisions.

It’s not just that it’s unsurprising; it’s not inherently bad. It’s how legislation you like gets written too.

New surveillance bill under consideration? Probably drafted by a lawyer at DOJ. Legislation to protect civil liberties? Good odds the first draft was worked up by an ACLU attorney. This isn’t new; there’s a whole polisci literature on “lobbying as a legislative subsidy.”

Legislation is drafted by outside groups (or lawyers at government agencies) of every ideological description, all the time—not just “model bills” recycled from state to state. Law is complicated, and the folks with highly specific domain expertise are often external.

One of many funny things about this breathless “exposé” of model legislation is that it seems to think it’s discovered something new, rather than something old that’s now apparent to outside observers, because it’s being done at scale.
