House Votes on Eminent Domain
*Stripping Home Owners of Property Rights Will not be Federally Funded in Spite of Supreme Court Ruling *
By Family Research Council
[A] House [of Representatives] measure, which passed 231-189, denies federal money to any city or state project that used eminent domain to force people to sell their property to make way for more profitable private projects.
NoLandGrab: If the Senate could pass the same measure, Ratner would loose access to federal affordable housing construction subsidies, Liberty Bonds and perhaps a few as yet unnamed sources of subsidies.
