The fight to protect our property rights is not over.
Unfortunately, during this year's short session the legislature refused to hear a proposed constitutional amendment to protect our property from eminent domain abuse. Instead, they passed a law that simply doesn't give us the protection we need.
Rather than allow the people to vote on this important amendment, the legislature sent it to a committee to die.
Instead of giving us constitutional protection that will stand the test of time, they passed a law that can easily be undone by a future legislature.
Make no mistake: North Carolina needs an amendment to the state constitution to ensure that government cannot take our private property for economic development purposes.
This fight is not over; it has only just begun.
We Need Your Help: There are three ways you can help with our ongoing efforts to protect private property rights in North Carolina:
