Gov Rick Perry joined lawmakers to promote House Joint Resolution 14 enabling Texans to vote on a constitutional amendment to strengthen property rights and related safeguards.
Gov Perry promotes a November 2009 ballot amendment placing strong limits on government use of eminent domain. He argues land ownership is central to Texas culture and citizens deserve constitutional protection against overreach by government entities.
The Legislature backed HJR 14 to allow a November vote on protecting homes and property from government seizure for non public uses. The move builds on SB 7 passed in 2005 after the Kelo v New London ruling, limiting eminent domain for private development. Rep. Frank Corte Jr. condemned misuse of eminent domain while praising the direction.
President Barack Obama appealed to skeptical physicians at the American Medical Association meeting in Chicago urging support for sweeping health care reform. He warned against fear tactics and attacked critics as naysayers while defending options beyond private coverage and opposing malpractice caps. Republican opponents and Mitt Romney critics were quick to voice pushback.
