Bill: Private Property is Private Property Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Jewish Capitalist Party
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: November 2581
Description[?]:
| Privately owned property is exactly that: privately owned. The government should not have any control over an individual's private property, and should not have the right to simply take the property. This is no different than theft, and we would support the jailing of any Knesset member that opposes this bill. |
Proposals

Proposal[?] to change Eminent Domain.
Old value:: The government may seize private property for vital government works.
Current: The government may seize private property for any reason.
