Eminent Domain/ Regulatory Takings Eminent Domain The idea of eminent domain was enacted in the United States in 1791 as part of the Bill of Rights.

Article V of the Bill of Rights states “No person …shall be…deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.” This has direct correlation to Article III, which says the US government may not force American citizens to house soldiers without just compensation. Today, the idea of eminent domain has a much different tone. Probably the most commonly cited example of eminent domain abuse was the United States Supreme Court decision in Kelo v. Several states have independently passed legislation to limit their power to eminent domain, and the Supreme Courts of Illinois, Michigan, and Ohio have barred the practice under their state constitutions.

The fact is that eminent-domain abuse is a crucial constitutional rights issue. On Tuesday, the Alabama Advisory Committee of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights will hold a public forum at Birmingham’s historic Sixteenth Street Baptist church to address ongoing property seizures in the state.
