Establishes a digital democracy online portal for public submission and tracking of legislative proposals.

The bill mandates the Office of Legislative Services to create a "digital democracy online portal" for the public to submit and track legislative proposals. The portal will include details such as proposal number, subject, date of receipt, contact information option, current status, and bill number. Members of the Legislature can request proposals to be drafted into legislation, with related information kept confidential. The portal will be accessible on the largest nonproprietary cooperative public computer network, with no fees charged for access.
