Even liberal Democrats should support this bill--
"For the last few years, opponents of
civil forfeiture have been calling on Congress to make it more difficult

Reps. John Conyers, D-Mich., and Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, who are
also Judiciary Committee members, introduced the Due Process Act on Thursday."
