Tell your state rep: Rein in abusive civil asset forfeiture practices
Alabamians deserve to have their personal property protected from seizure when they haven’t been convicted of a crime. But under our state’s civil asset forfeiture policies, people can lose their property, including their home or their only vehicle, without being convicted – or even charged. And law enforcement has an incentive to seize property because agencies are often allowed to keep the property they take. HB 394 would rein in some of the worst abuses of civil asset forfeiture.
HB 394 would increase due process protections for Alabamians who can’t afford to fight to keep the property they own. With your help, we can help push these reforms across the finish line.
Email your representatives and ask them to support HB 394’s reforms to civil asset forfeiture.
