The Senate Judiciary Committee expected to vote on S. 1931on February 24. If it doesn't pass this year, then it's back to square one when the next Congress convenes in January 2001. Please write to your two U.S. senators and ask them to vote for S. 1931 which, among other things, would require the government to prove that property was used to commit a crime before it can be forfeited. A national coalition of prestigious organizations has come together to support forfeiture reform in Congress, but we will not be able to pass S. 1931 unless your two U.S. senators hear from you and your friends, colleagues, and family. With the click of a couple of buttons, you can send a pre-written letter to your two U.S. senators in less than two minutes.
Time is of the essence.
