The Texas Farm Bureau President states his case by riasing these 3 points:
- Private Entities. 1271 non-governmental entities have eminent domain authority
- Transparency. those 1271 do not have the same transparency rules of local governments
- Unfairness. No fairness when landowners are forced to sell. More good faith. More just compensation.
