Eminent Domain Bills are Anti-Business in Texas? Yes. Follow the Bouncing Ball Dialog

“State Rep. Larry Phillips, state Sen. Craig Estes and Texas Association of Business CEO Jeff Moseley spoke on issues ranging from property tax reform to imminent (sic) domain concerns.”

“Graham said there is a growing group who claim conservative beliefs but take an anti-business stance. As an example of this Moseley said there were 25 bills against eminent domain use in this latest session. Moseley said eminent domain can be used to help secure infrastructure and public improvements.

Moseley went on to say that many of these representatives do not hold traditional Republican values and instead are closer to libertarian in ideology. These representatives have expressed views against private-public partnerships and other governmental acts.”
