AI Summary

This bill reenacts the crime of organized retail theft until January 1, 2026, making it punishable as a misdemeanor or felony. It also reenacts the regional property crimes task force, which was previously responsible for coordinating with the Department of Justice to identify areas with high property crime rates and provide local law enforcement with resources. The bill states that no reimbursement is required for local agencies or school districts, as the costs incurred would be due to the creation of a new crime. Lastly, the bill declares itself an urgency statute, meaning it will take effect immediately upon being signed into law.
