Across Iowa, property owners received letters saying the state now values their property significantly higher than a year ago - like 10s of thousands higher. Which will impact their property taxes for years.

It's officially silly season, they are debating if people can vote to take your property against your will.
There is only one viable reform for eminent domain... elimination.
There's only one party that believes your property is your property, join us:
Senate Republican Leader Jack Whitver says he is personally opposed to a bill introduced in the Iowa House that would let 20% of House or Senate members force a vote on the use of eminent domain for proposed carbon pipelines
