I think rather than post a "top ten listing" of must watch bills, I will post them individually as I find ones that would make for interesting discussions. (Besides, I can earn more Hubbucks doing it this way) HB 100 is an obvious response to the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling on eminent domain this past year...check it out and discuss.

I would guess that this is one that will pass (in some form or another)

HB 100 (http://billstatus.ls.state.ms.us/documents/2006/html/HB/0100-0199/HB0100PS.htm)

"An act to amend Section 11-27-1, Mississippi Code of 1972, to prohibit use of the power of eminent domain for certain private, nongovernmental purposes; to provide exemptions; and for related purposes."

I saw an article about this one in the C-L the other day. Finally a bill that I think everyone can get behind!

The only question I had about this is, since the Supremes ruled the way that they did, would this bill be unconstitutional?
