short_title: Better Way of Doing Things Act of 2014

BE IT ENACTED, BY THE PEOPLE OF THE INTERNET:

l. Short title. This act may be cited as the "{{short_title}}".

l. Definitions. For the purpose of this act, the term: ll. "Better" means... ll. "Drafting" means... lll. Drafting l. Cross-references. Except as provided in |exception|, this is an example of a cross-reference.

l. |exception| See D.C. Official Code 1-101. I suppose this could be called a cross-reference, but it's actually a citation and a link to a version of the law. It also works for federal laws, like 5 U.S.C. 552.

l. Pretty slick huh?
