Peter Rondeau for Myself Brookline I support HB 1801 because it makes straightforward, common-sense corrections to current law. The bill restores due process in wrongful detention and forfeiture cases, protects innocent property owners, and adds accountability where officers knowingly provide false written information. I urge the committee to support HB 1801. | Brookline | Support | 329 | Feb 9, 2026 | |
