Members of the California Assembly, including Speaker Robert Rivas, are proposing seven updates in Sacramento on retail theft across the state.
“The assembly is moving forward a comprehensive, balanced, and bipartisan legislative package that seeks to strengthen public safety, protect shoppers and business owners across California, and insure that we deliver real visible quality of life improvements to Californians,” said Rivas.
The seven bills are designed to allow police to arrest more shoplifters and keep them in custody longer, and to combine crimes committed by the same suspects. They would also update rules involving crimes across different counties and jurisdictions.
