Taxpayers, Homeowners Need Protection from 'Eminent Domain' Abuse Now

ALEXANDRIA, Va. -- Thanks to an unwise U.S. Supreme Court ruling earlier this summer, citizens can't afford to wait for protections from government's power to take private property for economic development: that's the message an expert from the 350,000-member National Taxpayers Union (NTU) gave Arkansas lawmakers today at a joint House-Senate hearing in Little Rock on remedies for "eminent domain" abuse. NTU has approximately 4,000 members in Arkansas. Posted by Editor at August 31, 2005 05:22 AM
