Limit Eminent Domain The People's Initiative

By Kathy Vlahov

On Saturday, February 25, 2006, people across California will launch a massive grassroots campaign to gather 800,000 signatures by early May to qualify Limit Eminent Domain The People's Initiative for the November 2006 ballot.

The official kickoff will be in Cesar Chavez Plaza, across from the Fairmont Hotel in San Jose between 1:00 p.m. and 3:00 p.m. Signing events will take place throughout the State - on Saturday and continuing until the goal is reached.

This Initiative is an all volunteer, non-partisan grassroots effort that brings people from every political persuasion who have one focus: protecting our homes, businesses and places of worship from eminent domain seizures for private gain. It is a straight forward, simple, single issue Initiative which provides: "No eminent domain for private gain."

The Initiative, officially titled: Government Acquisition of Private Property. Initiative Constitutional Amendment has been certified for signature gathering.
