Sage @whitneyq's advice. I'd support a ban on nonprofit people, legislators and administrators discussing a new form or notice without a test version in front of them.

Sage @whitneyq's advice. I'd support a ban on nonprofit people, legislators and administrators discussing a new form or notice without a test version in front of them.
@SamOlikerF @Responsive_Gov @civicdesign When you are including requirements for a form or notice, consider designing a test version as part of the drafting process. That lets you think about things like length, clarity in the context where it will be used, whether the text is meaningful to them.
@Responsive_Gov @whitneyq @civicdesign 2. Draft with goals in mind, not process. This one is tricky, and rarely done well, but leg and reg work much better if drafters keep their goal in mind (what they’re trying to prohibit, permit, or regulate) rather than what people need to do to comply. 8/x
@Responsive_Gov 1. Always draft as flexibly as possible! The first time I met @whitneyq from @civicdesign she yelled at me and said lawyers ruin everything by writing statutes and regs too specifically for designers to implement well. She's 100% right. 6/x
