Bill Drafting.
Divide your bill into sections.  Each section should cover ONE thing.  The bill should include either a penalty for violation of or incentive to comply with the law.

Example:

Section 1.  All principals of schools receiving federal funding shall lead their schools in daily patriotic exercises.

Section 2.  These patriotic exercises may include reciting the Pledge of Allegiance, singing the National Anthem or other patriotic song, reading the Declaration of Independence or Constitution, or other such America-affirming actions.

Section 3.  Failure to engage in such exercises shall result in the school losing 5% of its federal funding for each school day on which such exercises are not conducted, except in cases of emergency.

Please share your bill at GoogleDocs with the file name  <last name subject BILL>
