Land & Property Rights
Eminent domain protections, property tax appraisal reform, mineral rights, and land use regulations
Your land is your legacy. But eminent domain abuse, skyrocketing property appraisals, and pipeline companies threaten Texas landowners every legislative session. Property rights are supposed to be sacred in Texas -- we track whether your representatives actually protect them.
Why It Matters
- ●Pipeline companies can take your land through eminent domain -- often at below-market prices
- ●Property appraisals keep rising, driving up tax bills even when you haven't sold
- ●Mineral rights disputes leave landowners fighting against well-funded corporations
- ●Zoning and land use regulations can strip property value without compensation
- ●Solar and wind energy companies are leasing vast tracts -- are landowners getting fair deals?
Questions to Ask Your Rep
- ?Has your representative voted to strengthen eminent domain protections?
- ?Do they support appraisal caps that actually help homeowners?
- ?Have they taken money from pipeline or energy companies that use eminent domain?
- ?Do they support the landowner or the corporation when rights conflict?
