Gov. Gavin Newsom's signing of 10 bills targeting retail theft signifies a strategic legislative response to ongoing business concerns and a proactive challenge to Proposition 36.
Newsom stated, 'This goes to the heart of the issue, and it does it in a thoughtful and judicious way,' highlighting the comprehensive nature of the new laws.
The law package enables online marketplaces to prevent sales of stolen goods, imposing stricter requisites for platforms like Facebook and eBay to report suspicious activities.
With the new laws making it easier to enforce prosecution for theft and auto burglary, they present a formidable counter to the measures proposed in Prop. 36.
