The Legislature defeated regulatory “takings” legislation, which would have required the state to pay landowners if future laws passed by the Legislature arguably reduced their property values significantly. If the state could not afford to pay, the landowner would have been permitted to disregard the law. This legislation threatened to freeze the passage of any future environmental law or regulation because of the potential financial consequences to the state. The Senate passed the “takings” bill and the House rejected it. As a result, the bill died.YES IS THE PRO ENVIRONMENT VOTE IN THE HOUSE • NO IS THE PRO ENVIRONMENT VOTE IN THE SENATE.
