Breaking News – Local CPR to appear on FOXNEWS this Sunday April 25th

BREAKING NEWS: CPR on FoxNews This Sunday – April 25
CPR invites its members and readers to tune in to FOX News on Sunday, April 25. CPR Executive Director Carol Saviak will be interviewed live at 11:20 a.m. and will discuss an eminent domain abuse case in Auburn, New York.

The case involves several property owners whose businesses have been targeted for seizure by eminent domain by a local economic development agency to facilitate a larger scale development which is hoped will bring in greater tax revenue for the municipality. This case is similar to the Kelo v. New London case, and an example of the type of abuse which CPR worked to eliminate in Florida.

Thanks to Florida’s legislative leadership and former Governor Jeb Bush, Florida citizens have enjoyed the protection of the new law passed in the 2006 Session and a Constitutional Amendment passed by Florida voters for the last few years. Florida’s law is considered among the strongest post-Kelo reforms in the nation.

However, in other states which did not react to the Kelo decision with meaningful statutory or Constitutional reforms, these private-to-private transfers are still underway.

Tune in to FOX News on Sunday morning to see CPR weigh in on this current case and promote the protection of private property rights through this national news opportunity.

FOX News is currently airing a new series on property rights abuses nationwide, entitled, “It’s Your Land.” (http://www.foxnews.com/topics/politics/its-your-land.htm) FOX News is seeking examples of property rights abuse across the country and property owners who would like to have their legal fight or abuse profiled should go to the FOXNEWS.com website and report this abuse.
