Kelo is huge.

My top three would be overturning Plyler V. Doe-and judicial interface in immigration law in general. Scrapping Roe. And finally, memory-holing Bakke and any other racial discrimination that violates the 14th Amendment.

Kelo was my immediate thought as well.

“Overturn the Kelo decision.”

Reform asset forfeiture
Reform drug policy.

The police have too much power. I am tired of living in a police state.

Overturn the Kelo decision


That is my first wish, too.

Agree on Kelo.

Would like to see something rebuking civil forfeiture without criminal conviction.

I see a lot of “Kelo” in this thread. I agree that Kelo was wrongly decided and a terrible decision. However, Kelo has been largely gutted via legislation.

In the aftermath of Kelo, 45 States have either passed legislation or a Constitutional Amendment restricting eminent domain at the State level. In the remaining 5, three of those States had Court decisions that limited the taking of private property.

No other SCOTUS decision has ever generated as much immediate legislation and activity to counter its effect.
