S. 1313: not enough

Sen. John Cornyn, R-TX, has introduced a bill, S. 1313, in response to the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Kelo. As I read it, the bill is quite limited in scope; it applies only to takings financed with federal money. Eugene Volokh, a law professor who can speak much more authoritatively than I, agrees. So while S. 1313 is a step in the right direction, it's inadequate.

Next in line, please ...
