Just received this encouraging email from Christina Walsh of the Castle Coalition:
Friends, Yesterday, the U.S. House of Representatives overwhelmingly passed H.R. 4128, the Private Property Rights Protection Act of 2005, by a vote of 376 - 38. Below is the text of the bill as passed by the House. The amendments that would have substantially weakened the protections it affords were rejected. This tremendous outcome was a direct result of your calls and letters to Congress. But the battle is just beginning; the bill now heads to the Senate. We will need your support again to make sure that the Senate follows the House's lead in refusing to fund eminent domain abuse.
YOU made the difference yesterday, and we appreciate your efforts and dedication to protecting private property rights. So from all of us here at the Castle Coalition - thank you!
Sincerely, Christina Walsh Assistant Castle Coalition Coordinator Institute for Justice
You know what to do and letters are more effective than emails - write your Senator(s) today. Also, it's good to make a little donation to the Castle Coalition to support their work on this important political issue [I bought a cool "Hands Off My Home T-Shirt].
