From an LEO's perspective, this works well, but there was no mention of the ACLU's of the world complaining in the article, so I am not sure about unintended consequences. I will say the legislators raised some good questions.

I agree with Wambli about withholding assistance funds, but the money in question isn’t assistance...it’s overpaid taxes.

However, it is a unlawful taking. It isnt the states money to hold. Unless they are paying interest, I have a problem with it.
Not technically asset forfeiture, but the same ballpark. Withholding assets without conviction ensures many people cannot hire legal representation. This practice increases convictions and plea deals.

Good point.
Like Jerm mentioned, it's state taxes so likely not EIC.
Crystal ball...If states continue this with "success", the police in states without state taxes will lobby the same for federal returns. If the warrant isn't cleared in a pre-determined amout of time, the money is forfeit to the state.
