Join the Fight Against Abusive Eminent Domain

Join Texas Commissioner of Agriculture Todd Staples in the war against abusive eminent domain. Visit www.protectyourhomeandland.com and sign the online petition.

Commissioner Staples, in his own words, states that: “The legislature needs to complete eminent domain reform by passing additional reforms that establish stricter penalties for not negotiating in good faith; demand adequate compensation for loss of access; provide a 10-year buy back provision for land that isn’t used; and clarify that eminent domain must only be exercised for public use.

The 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution says in part: “No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law.” This is one of the founding principles our country was built on, and I need your help to ensure the Texas Legislature finishes the job. “
