Eminent Domain Legislation Top Priority in Tennessee
The legislature in Tennessee is hearing a consistent refrain from their constituents, “Do not take my property and give it to another”. In response, 59 separate eminent domain bills have been introduced in this legislative session and it looks like they will get something passed in the near term. These laws have been put forward by both Democrats and Republicans as this is the hot button issue for the year.
Lawmakers say the issue is one of the first things their constituents want to talk about, and there’s broad support for the idea across parties and interest groups.
“In Tennessee, property rights almost rise to the level of being sacred,” said Rep. Joe Fowlkes, D-Cornersville, vice chairman of a joint committee studying eminent domain. “When people think that their private property might be taken from them and given to another person, it stirs them up.” via the Southern Standard.
