Kick abusive civil asset forfeiture laws to the curb

Urge lawmakers to support two bills that would meaningfully reform our state's broad and abusive civil asset forfeiture practices.

SB 316/HB 421 would protect the due process rights of Tennesseans, ensure that forfeiture targets only people who have actually committed crimes, remove the direct profit motive from civil asset forfeiture and help restore public confidence in law enforcement. SB 644/HB 813 will help hold police departments accountable and increase government transparency.

Your #100DaysTN challenge is to tell members of the Senate Judiciary Committee and House Civil Justice Subcommittee that it's time to kick abusive policing-for-profit laws to the curb: http://bit.ly/2ma4yHr
