The U.S. Supreme Court recently declared that it
is OK for the government to condemn single-family homes and sell
them to private developers. In fact, some legal experts believe
this ruling permits government to use condemnation "to replace any
Motel 6 with a Ritz Carlton, any farm with a factory, or any home
with a shopping mall." Yes, even your home.
The Wisconsin Homeowners Alliance thinks it’s
wrong to allow government to condemn your home for the benefit of
a private, third party. Please help us enact Assembly Bill 657-
legislation that prevents the condemnation of homes for the
purpose of selling to private parties. Call you legislators at
(800) 362-9472 and Governor Doyle at (608) 266-1212 and ask them
to enact this bill into law, before it hits home.
