Protecting the Fundamental Rights of Missourians

When the Supreme Court decided Kelo v. City of New London in 2005 and determined that private property could be taken away through eminent domain for private use, many Americans were rightly outraged. Unfortunately, our most basic constitutional right to own a home or small business is under threat.

Why? According to the Supreme Court, politicians can team up with developers to take land that belongs to businesses, families or churches simply because a commercial development would be useful in that place.

Fortunately, there are those who are willing to stand up and fight for property rights. Like Adam Smith, we believe the right to own private property is fundamental to our ability to have a vibrant economy, and that property rights are fundamentally important to freedom.

Please sign up for the ASF mailing list and stay informed of what we are doing to fight eminent domain abuse and protect the property rights of ordinary Missourians.

Slash Wasteful Spending!

Call the members of Congress' Debt Super Committee and tell them to slash wasteful spending. We need to get the national debt under control by reducing bloated bureaucracy and ending irresponsible deficit spending.
