In addition, state agencies routinely use federal asset forfeiture laws; ignoring state regulations to confiscate and receive financial proceeds from forfeited property.

Hmmm... didn't Holder recently (and uncharacteristically) terminate this kind of thievery?

So it was said, but with Holder, you need to know the rest of the story. They may just have varied the percentages of the take between state and federal groups, or made a small dent in it. A real law would be MUCH better.

I wonder if Obama would veto it.

No he just said the locals couldn’t participate in the fed program - no impact to the local programs, or the feds executing the fed program - trying to get the feds hands on more of the pie is all.
