[QUOTE="SMS, post: 2695813, member: 42"] My understanding is he is not changing any law, but changing/ending a federal [I]program[/I] wherein federal authorities "adopt" a local/state seizure after the fact and then share the money/property with the local agencies who did the work...basically using federal law to justify/enforce the seizure when there is no applicable state or local law. The federal forfeiture laws are still in effect but without this program local police wouldn't normally be able to make a seizure unless there was an applicable state/local law (at least that's my understanding of it).
