New Hampshire lawmakers gave preliminary approval Wednesday to a constitutional amendment that would limit government's ability to seize private property. The measure was prompted by a U.S. Supreme Court ruling last year that allowed New London, Conn., to take older homes along the waterfront and turn them over to a developer. After the high court's ruling, activists tried to seize Supreme Court Justice David Souter's New Hampshire farmhouse in retaliation for voting with the majority.
